Thank you for making 2019 another successful year for us. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Amanda & Nicole [email protected] [email protected]

You can do anything as long as you have the passion, the drive, the focus, and the support. We are excited to announce that ARO & Company is in the midst of a transition to a virtual environment. We believe that this change will allow us to focus on our company's core values and utilize our areas of expertise in non-profit and small business management. As some of our services have been eliminated, current and established clients have already received this communication. Howe...ver, if you have any questions about this transition - please contact us. -Amanda and Nicole

Tax season is all year long if you own a small business!! There are three basic documents that will help you answer critical questions about your business. Don’t know how to get started creating these documents? WE CAN HELP manage these documents for you! Balance Sheet: How much is your business worth?... Your balance sheet shows the assets, liabilities and owner’s equity for your business. It’s basically a breakdown of what you owe versus what you own. Remember, assets are items owned by your company, and liabilities are things you owe on. Equity is the value of your business assets minus the liabilities; it’s basically the value you’d place on your company if you had to put a price tag on it today. Profit and Loss Statement: Is your business profitable? Your profit and loss statement is a summary of your revenue minus expenses for a period of time, usually a quarter of the year at a time. It shows your profits or losses at a glance for that chunk of time. Cash Flow Statement: Where is your business’s cash going? This statement categorizes cash flow into three types of activities: -Operating: How much does your business make day-to-day? -Investing: Are the assets you’ve purchased for your business paying off? -Financing: How much cash have you invested in your business? This can also reflect how much money you’ve borrowedbut we believe it’s best to operate your business debt-free. When you’re not making debt payments, you actually get to keep your profits to pay yourself!

The office will be closed Monday, May 27th. We will reopen at 8am Tuesday.

A sincere thank you to all of our clients for making it another successful tax season. This year was our 3rd season and we appreciate all of the relationships we have built over the years!
