What a complete close includes

Every step of the monthly close cycle — handled offshore.

every item below is covered as standard on every monthly engagement. nothing requires a separate request.

Bank and credit card reconciliation
all accounts reconciled against bank statements. discrepancies investigated and resolved — not flagged as unexplained timing differences. reconciliation completed and available in your software before the close is signed off.
Journal entries
prepaid expense amortization, accruals for expenses incurred but not yet billed, depreciation entries, inter-company transactions, and any period-specific adjustments posted with clear descriptions and supporting documentation.
Accounts payable review
outstanding bills checked against the ledger. any bills received but not posted during the month caught and entered. AP aging report prepared.
Accounts receivable review
outstanding invoices reviewed. AR aging report prepared. any significant overdue items noted for your attention.
Trial balance review
trial balance reviewed for anomalies — account balances that don’t match the prior period pattern, transactions posted to unusual accounts, large round-number entries without clear explanations. anomalies flagged in a summary note, not left for you to discover during your review.
Financial statements
P&L and balance sheet pulled from QBO or Xero, reviewed for completeness, formatted to your firm’s standard, and delivered for your review.
Delivery timeline

Quality control

Two internal review stages before the close reaches you.

the close is not marked complete until every item has passed a two-stage internal review. the anomaly summary you receive is a product of this review — everything flagged in it was caught internally, not discovered by you during your review.

1
Preparer review. the preparing accountant confirms completeness — all accounts reconciled, all journal entries posted, no unresolved discrepancies. anomalies identified and noted for the summary.
2
Senior accountant review. a senior accountant independently reviews the close before delivery. trial balance checked against prior period. financial statement totals verified. anomaly summary reviewed for completeness.
3
Your review. you receive a close that has been verified internally. your review is the professional sign-off — judgment, planning observations, and client communication — not error detection.
