What do small business accounting services add to bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping records transactions, reconciles accounts, and closes the books each month. Accounting focuses on the financial statements, the quality of the reporting, and the questions those numbers raise. Figures connects that work to a dedicated CFO, who helps you use the information for planning and business decisions.

One connected finance team

Each layer has a job. Your team connects them.

The same monthly financial information moves through bookkeeping, accounting, and CFO advisory. That means the discussion does not stop when the books close.

  1. Bookkeeping

    Organize transactions, reconcile accounts, and complete the recurring monthly close.

  2. Accounting

    Deliver financial statements, focus on reporting quality, and address accounting questions in the monthly numbers.

  3. CFO advisory

    Use the current financial information for forecasts, plans, scenarios, and business decisions.

Year-round tax planning stays connected to those same records and decisions.

Beyond completed books

Financial statements with someone to explain them.

Figures' recurring bookkeeping produces current records. The accounting and advisory work keeps the resulting reports connected to the questions an owner needs to answer.

01. Monthly financial statements

Receive financial statements based on the completed monthly books. You can see the period's results without waiting until year-end to bring the records together.

02. Reporting quality and oversight

The accounting layer focuses on whether the statements reflect the underlying records and on accounting questions that need attention. The monthly close supplies the starting point; accounting makes the reporting useful.

03. An explanation of the numbers

Your dedicated CFO helps you understand what the statements say about cash, spending, and the decisions ahead. See how CFO advisory works.

04. Tax planning while the year is underway

Figures' in-house EAs and CPAs can raise tax considerations while business decisions are still being made. Real-time tax planning is included in the monthly plan.

Your existing system

Accounting that works from the books you use.

Figures works in the accounting tool your business uses, including QuickBooks and Xero. The team handles the recurring bookkeeping there, then uses those monthly records as the basis for financial statements and advice. If your tool has a paid subscription, you pay that cost separately.

Payroll processing is not part of the standard monthly scope. Any paid accounting-software subscription is a separate client expense.

From current books to current reporting

A clear start, then a monthly reporting rhythm.

01

Review your starting point

Figures reviews your current books and accounting setup. If earlier periods need catch-up or cleanup, the team explains the separate work, timeline, and price before it begins.

02

Connect the work

The team organizes the recurring workflow in the accounting tool you use and assigns your finance team. Standard onboarding typically takes about two weeks. A backlog can require a separate timeline.

03

Close, report, and discuss

Each month, the books are closed on the agreed schedule and the resulting financial statements are delivered. Your CFO helps connect the current numbers to planning and decisions; the tax team can raise tax considerations during the year.

How are bookkeeping and accounting different?

Bookkeeping records and organizes transactions, reconciles accounts, and completes the monthly close.

Your business needs both current records and a way to understand the financial results. Figures combines the recurring bookkeeping and accounting work with CFO advisory, so you do not have to coordinate separate providers for each layer.
