Bookkeeping for Tipton Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Tipton businesses. Clean books and timely reports from a Mid-Missouri bookkeeper who understands rural business.

What We Do

We’re a Versailles-based bookkeeper serving small businesses in Tipton and throughout Moniteau County. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll processing, cleanup work for books that have fallen behind, and the day-to-day financial tasks that pile up when running the business takes priority.

Tipton businesses don’t have the same options as Kansas City or St. Louis. The big firms aren’t interested in a contractor doing $400K or a farm operation that needs books ready for the operating line renewal. We’re set up for exactly those businesses. Close enough to understand central Missouri, small enough to actually answer when you call.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Monthly bookkeeping that keeps your records current. Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, P&L and balance sheet delivered. Your books stay closed every month without you spending evenings on QuickBooks.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

Books that are months or years behind get cleaned up and made current. We reconstruct what’s there, organize what’s missing, and build a foundation for accurate records going forward.

Payroll Processing

Paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s at year end. Your employees get paid on time. You stop tracking payroll deadlines and worrying about deposit schedules.

Sales Tax Filing

Missouri sales tax handled on schedule. We track what you owe, file on time, and keep you compliant without the penalties that come from late or incorrect filings.

Tipton Businesses We Work With

A town of 3,400 people still has real businesses with real bookkeeping needs. Contractors building and repairing homes throughout Moniteau County. Farm operations that have been here for generations. Auto shops, salons, and service businesses that keep the community running. The size of the town doesn’t change what clean books require.

We work with businesses doing anywhere from $50K to a few million in revenue. Big enough to need accurate financial records, not so big that a full-time bookkeeper makes sense. That’s the gap where outside help actually works.

Farming Operations

Farm bookkeeping with categories that match Schedule F from the start. We understand the seasonal cash flow patterns and the timing of income and expenses that makes agricultural accounting different from other businesses.

Contractors and Trades

HVAC, plumbing, electrical, general contractors working in and around Tipton. We track jobs, manage the financial records that bonding companies want to see, and keep books that help you bid accurately on the next project.

Auto Shops and Service

Repair shops, body shops, and automotive service businesses. We separate parts from labor revenue, track inventory costs, and provide the financial picture that shows which services actually make money.

Home Services

Lawn care, cleaning, pest control, and other home service businesses covering the area. Route-based work generates a lot of small transactions. We keep them organized so you know where you stand without drowning in receipts.
