Bookkeeping for Audrain County Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Audrain County businesses. Serving Mexico, Vandalia, and surrounding areas from our Versailles office.

Bookkeeping for Audrain County

Audrain County has about 25,000 people spread across farmland and small towns. Mexico is the county seat and the commercial hub. Vandalia, Laddonia, and Martinsburg round out the map. The economy runs on agriculture, but there’s also the retail, healthcare, and service businesses that any county seat needs to function.

We’re based in Versailles, about ninety minutes south. Everything happens remotely through QuickBooks Online, which actually works better for rural counties than expecting you to drive somewhere for meetings. Your books stay current without the travel time.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Monthly bookkeeping that closes on schedule. Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, financial statements delivered. You see where you stand without doing the work yourself.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

If your books are months behind or full of errors from past attempts, we start here. We sort through the backlog, fix the mistakes, and build a clean foundation before moving to monthly service.

Payroll Processing

Paychecks processed, tax deposits made, quarterly filings handled, W-2s issued at year end. Your employees get paid on time and you stop tracking payroll deadlines yourself.

Sales Tax Filing

Missouri sales tax tracked and filed on schedule. We calculate what you owe, prepare the return, and make sure you stay compliant without missing deadlines.

Audrain County Businesses We Work With

The businesses in Audrain County range from multi-generation farming operations to retail shops on Mexico’s town square. What they share is the need for accurate financial records without the time to maintain them. If managing your own books has become a source of stress rather than useful information, that’s exactly the gap a Mid-Missouri bookkeeper can fill.

We work with businesses doing roughly $100K to a few million in annual revenue. Big enough to need professional bookkeeping. Not so big that you need a full accounting department on staff.

Farming Operations

Row crops, cattle, hogs, mixed operations across the county. We handle farm bookkeeping with proper Schedule F categories, equipment depreciation tracking, and financials that work for operating loans and year-end tax prep.

Contractors and Trades

Construction, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other trades working throughout the county. Job costing that tracks profitability by project so you know which work actually makes money.

Automotive

Auto repair shops, tire dealers, and service centers. Parts inventory, labor tracking, and books that separate what you’re making on labor from what you’re making on parts.

Retail and Service

Shops, restaurants, salons, and service businesses in Mexico and the smaller towns. Sales tax compliance, inventory tracking where needed, and monthly financials that show real margins.

Common Questions

Do you serve all of Audrain County?

Yes. Mexico, Vandalia, Laddonia, Martinsburg, and everywhere in between. We're based in Versailles and work remotely with all our clients, so your location within the county doesn't affect the service.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting around $200 per month depending on your transaction volume and complexity. We quote a flat monthly rate after reviewing your books so there are no surprises.

Do you work with farm operations?

Yes. We understand Schedule F categories, seasonal cash flow patterns, and the timing challenges that come with agricultural businesses. Your books will match how your operation actually runs.

My books haven't been touched in months. Can you help?

That's how most clients start. We do the cleanup work first to get everything current and accurate, then transition to monthly bookkeeping to keep it that way.

How do I send you documents if we're not meeting in person?

Through a secure online portal. Bank statements, receipts, invoices, whatever you have. Upload when it's convenient for you and we handle the rest.
