What Is Outsourced Accounting?

Outsourced accounting means a firm like Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services runs your accounting function for you. We closes your books monthly, prepares GAAP financial statements, reports on cash flow and profit, and keeps your records tax-ready. You get a finance team without hiring one.

Outsourced Accounting vs. Bookkeeping: Which Do You Need?

Black Ink Tax & Accounting Service separates the two because they solve different problems. Bookkeeping keeps your records clean. Outsourced accounting turns those records into financial statements, reports, and advice you can act on.

Feature	Bookkeeping	Outsourced Accounting
What it does	Records and categorizes transactions	Closes the books, prepares statements, analyzes results
What you get	Reconciled accounts	GAAP financials, CFO-style reports, tax-ready books
Best for	New or simple businesses	Growing businesses with lenders, investors, or tax complexity
Who does it	Bookkeeper	Accounting team led by an Enrolled Agent

Start with bookkeeping if you just need clean records. Move to outsourced accounting when you need statements a lender or investor will read, or when your tax situation gets complicated.

What Our Outsourced Accounting Services Include

Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services handles the full accounting cycle, from the monthly close to tax filing. Here’s what you get.

Monthly Close and Reconciliation

We close your books every month. We reconcile your bank, credit card, and loan accounts, fix errors, and lock the period. You see accurate numbers within days, not months. Behind on your books? We handle catch-up bookkeeping first.

GAAP Financial Statements

You get a profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement every month. We prepare them to GAAP standards, so your lender, investor, or buyer can trust them.

CFO-Style Reporting

Numbers only help if you can use them. We report on cash flow, margins, and budget versus actual, then walk you through what changed and what to do about it. Think of it as a part-time finance lead.

Tax-Ready Books and Filing

Your books stay organized for tax season all year. No scramble in March. We prepare your business tax return, and your Enrolled Agent handles questions from the IRS.

Who Outsourced Accounting Is For

Outsourced accounting fits small businesses that have outgrown a basic bookkeeper. You’re likely ready if:

Your annual revenue falls in the range
You have employees or contractors to pay
A bank, investor, or buyer wants financial statements
You use QuickBooks but don’t trust the numbers
You spend your weekends on the books instead of the business

What does an outsourced accountant do?

An outsourced accountant runs your accounting remotely. Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services closes your books each month, prepares GAAP financial statements, reports on cash flow and profit, and keeps your records ready for tax filing. You get the work of a finance team without the salaries.

Is outsourced accounting the same as bookkeeping?

No. Bookkeeping records and categorizes your transactions. Outsourced accounting goes further. Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services closes the books, prepares financial statements, analyzes results, and advises you on what the numbers mean. Many clients start with bookkeeping and add accounting as they grow.

How much do outsourced accounting services cost?

Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services’ outsourced accounting services start at [starting price] per month. Your final price depends on transaction volume, the number of entities, and whether you add payroll. You get a flat quote after a free consult.

Do I need QuickBooks?

Not always. We work in QuickBooks and can set it up for you. If you already use another system, we’ll look at it during your consult and tell you straight whether it works or whether you should switch.

Can you catch up on my past books?

Yes. We handle catch-up bookkeeping for businesses that are months or years behind. We clean up the past first, then move you onto a monthly close so you don’t fall behind again.

Do you work with businesses outside New York?

Yes. Black Ink Tax and Accounting Services serves small businesses across the USA. You work with us by phone, video, and secure online tools. Based in New York and want to meet in person? Our Brooklyn office is open to you.

What happens if my books aren't ready at tax time?

We can’t prepare your return accurately until the year is closed, so you may need to file an extension. An extension gives you more time to file, not more time to pay. Late-payment penalties and interest can still apply. Keeping your books current each month avoids that.

Is professional bookkeeping worth it for a small business?

For most owners, yes, once the books take more than a few hours a month or errors start reaching the tax return. Clean monthly books show your real cash position, catch missed deductions and speed up loan applications and tax filing.
