Services Offered
At MAS, Inc., we offer a wide range of services to our clients, including:
Tax Preparation
With the ever-changing nature of federal, state, and local tax laws, it is essential to work with tax advisors who are up-to-date on new legislation. Our team attends regular training and has access to the technical resources needed to research areas of uncertainty. We take a hands-on approach to solving our clients' tax problems, as we believe that integrity and knowledge can collectively help minimize their tax liability while following the tax laws.
Business Advisory
In today's complex business world, our clients demand more than traditional tax and accounting services. That's why we offer business advisory services to help our clients determine solutions to a wide range of areas, including evaluating whether a company should buy or lease office space or equipment, open a new location, strategic planning, and improving business efficiency.
Accounting & Bookkeeping
Maintaining accurate accounting records is not only a requirement for preparing and providing support for tax returns but can also be a powerful management tool. Accurate books assist in evaluating the overall health of the company, including assessing cash flow needs, liquidity, and comparing the company against competitors in the same industry. Well-maintained books can serve as a valuable tool for establishing budgets. Once established, we can regularly monitor variances between actual performance and the budget and make recommendations to achieve the goals in areas where the business is underperforming. In addition to providing accounting services to businesses, we also offer accounting and bookkeeping services to individuals.
At MAS, Inc., we are committed to providing exceptional service to our clients. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you achieve your financial goals.
