We’re accountants and we enjoy crunching numbers, but chances are good that as a small business owner, you don’t.

Bookkeeping

Accurate bookkeeping is essential to your company’s long-term viability. Experienced, affordable, and reliable, we serve a variety of industries and clients from self-employed home-based business owners to small and medium-size businesses with employees. When you outsource your bookkeeping services to us you get one on one personalized service and state of the art technology and payroll software.


If you’re just starting a business, we’ll set up reporting and recordkeeping systems that make it easy for you to keep track of where your money is going. If you’ve been in business for a while, but need help cleaning up your books, we’ll work with you to streamline your bookkeeping systems and set up a system of checks and balances.


But the best reason to use our bookkeeping services? You’ll have more time to focus on running your business and generating more profits.

Payroll Services

On average, small business owners spend eight hours per month on payroll-related tasks. While it may not seem like a lot of time, it does add up--and it takes time away from running your business.


If you own a small to medium-sized business with more than a few employees, you already know that payroll is complicated. It seems like every year a new piece of federal, state, or local legislation related to payroll is passed that you need to comply with.


If you’re just starting out, you may only have a few employees to worry about. You might be able to handle payroll on your own, but wouldn’t your time be better spent on developing new products or services for your business?  


Outsourcing Your Payroll Is More Affordable Than You Think.

When you outsource your payroll responsibilities to us you get a dedicated payroll specialist who works with you throughout the entire payroll process. There’s no need for you to hire an in-house specialist or maintain a payroll system. We also stay on top of legislation affecting payroll compliance, so you don’t need to.


Here’s what we do for you:

  • Direct Deposit and Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT)
  • Payroll checks printing
  • Payroll tax compliance, e-filing, tax payments
  • Payroll reporting by employee or department
  • W-2, W-3, and 1099 processing
  • User-friendly, and easy to understand monthly, quarterly, and annual payroll tax reports
  • Payment of third-party withholdings such as insurance

Tax Services for Businesses & Individuals

Today’s tax laws are complicated. Whether you’re preparing the return for your business or filing individual taxes, IRS compliance can be overwhelming. With so many important details to consider, it’s easy to make an error or omit something which could end up as a penalty, fine, or unwanted problem with the IRS.


At RGE & Associates, we serve both individual and business planning, preparation and filing needs while remaining compliant with the continuously changing tax laws and regulations. We offer comprehensive tax services for upcoming returns and will work with you to plan ahead to maximize appropriate deductions and credit opportunities.

At RGE & Associates, our success is based on your success. Take a look at the links to our services below or contact us to learn how we can save you time and money with our comprehensive tax services.
