Let’s Be Clear

Our services include QuickBooks Bookkeeping, Payroll Processing, sourcing and administration of SIMPLE, 401(k), 403(b) and HRA plans, Payment Processor set up, QuickBooks Apps integration, Payroll Tax and Unemployment compliance, State Charity Registration, and more.

QuickBooks

QuickBooks is an amazing tool, yet it has so many functions that it can become overwhelming to learn and manage. We offer customized setup, training, bookkeeping, financial reporting, and oversight based on your company's unique requirements.

Payroll

Tired of rushing to meet payroll deadlines or fixing inaccuracies? Need to set up withholding tax, PTO accrual, or manage multi-state remote workers? We'll make sure your company's onboarding and processing are streamlined, exact, and compliant.

Benefits

Sorting through benefit options with their financial implications is tedious – even before set up and administration. We source compliant programs that make sense for your business (and budget), and remain a resource when questions inevitably arise.

Software & App Integration

QuickBooks functionality is exponentially enhanced by the compatible apps and software that, when integrated correctly, allow syncing of information that saves time and provides financial insight. Our team has experience with ADP, BILL, Stripe, PayPal, Gusto, Paychex, Ramp, and more.

Budgeting

In both for-profit and nonprofit organizations, priorities are reflected in how the entity secures and spends its income. There's no better way to solidify these choices than with a clear, frequently monitored budget. Together, we'll create a plan that conveys your intentions.

Issues Resolution

The Tax Notice. The Workers' Comp Audit. The Overdue Invoice. Whatever the issue, trying to reach someone or craft an effective response can be time-consuming. We tenaciously track down information and represent your interests without damaging relationships.

Let’s Talk Pricing

While we offer Office Hours for one-time troubleshooting, we've found that most hourly rates don't factor in special circumstances or foster relationships. Instead, we primarily work on a monthly retainer or project basis because no two companies or assignments are the same.

Clearly Calculated clients with monthly or project pricing know they can text or email a question without us watching the clock or adding unexpected charges to their invoice.

QuickBooks Office Hours

$150/hr.

If you need help with anything QuickBooks-related, schedule some time with us. We'll walk you through the fix or take a task off your hands—it's up to you. We guarantee a solution or your money back!

From Solopreneurs who need a little training, to experienced Bookkeepers who find themselves stuck, this is a great option for anyone that needs a swift solution.

And yes, we do have weekend hours!

    What Our Clients Have to Say

    These folks have saved time and money by letting Clearly Calculated share the workload. Their willingness to delegate, coupled with our eagerness to find solutions, is a win-win.

    Clearly Calculated has been instrumental from the get-go in making us better. Mari and her team offer that calm and capable voice of reason that we all crave when the to-do list starts to overwhelm.

    I barraged them with a laundry list of questions regarding best practices for our financial reporting. They immediately prioritized my issues, resolved the most urgent ones quickly and then found solutions to make us even more efficient. They then streamlined and simplified our systems in a way that lessened the day-to-day work load and made it possible to see our big picture goals clearly.

    Knowing I can rely on Clearly Calculated’s guidance and extensive knowledge of both the nonprofit and commercial sectors, I feel confident and secure that the organization is running smoothly, so we can focus on our mission and get back to gardening!

    Sarah WilliamsGreen Guerillas

    We were referred to Clearly Calculated through a mutual friend and have held onto them tightly ever since.

    Prior to working with them, we were totally 'winging it’ and not confident at all that we were doing things right. Not to mention we were wasting valuable time doing something that wasn’t profiting the business. Bookkeeping was definitely a source of frustration. No longer!

    We’ve been working with Clearly Calculated for over 10 years now and they have been a tremendous asset. Our business has grown and they've been there every step of the way helping us make smart, strategic decisions. They are thorough, reliable, trustworthy, and always a pleasure to communicate with.

    Tax time is a breeze when Clearly Calculated is maintaining your books all year. Can’t recommend highly enough!

    Mari is awesome–as a person, as a trainer, and as someone who has the ability to impact the lives and businesses of her clients.

    As a new nonprofit, Mari took the time to truly understand our mission and vision. From there, she set up and now maintains our books in a way that is easy for those who are a little more 'numbers-challenged' to review and understand.

    She has an uncanny ability to explain financial/budget-related topics in a way that's - dare I say - enjoyable to learn about! There is never a question too big or too small and her replies are very thoughtful with some added humor any chance she can get.

    I highly recommend Clearly Calculated to anyone who wants to focus on the things they do best while having complete confidence that their business's books are being exceptionally managed.
