Increasing revenue isn’t the only way to improve your business’s financial performance. Another option is to strengthen your profit margins by analyzing key operating expenses, such as employee compensation and benefits, vendor contracts and leases, marketing return on investment, and borrowing costs. Compare your costs with industry benchmarks and look for overlapping services and avoidable spending. Selectively eliminate costs that don’t add value while continuing to invest in the people and resources your business needs to grow. Call us at (646) 216-9191 for help performing a comprehensive expense review and identifying strategies to improve your profitability and cash flow.

Monthly financial statements are essential. But they often take weeks to prepare and may arrive after you’ve already made critical business decisions. Flash reports can help bridge that gap by providing real-time snapshots of critical metrics — such as cash balances, collections and payroll. These reports provide timely insight into financial performance, allowing you to identify emerging issues before they become major problems. Because flash reports are preliminary, you should use them as management tools, not formal financial statements. Call us at (646) 216-9191 to discuss how customized flash reports can help your business make faster, more informed financial decisions.

The IRS has expanded its Business Tax Account (BTA), making the self-service platform available to partnerships; tax-exempt organizations; federal, state and local governments; and Indian tribal governments. The BTA is a centralized platform that allows eligible users to manage their federal tax responsibilities online. Among other things, BTA users can view tax balances, make payments and see payment history, access eligible payroll and income transcripts, if eligible, and download select digital notices. The newly eligible entities join sole proprietors, S corporations and C corporations that are already able to access the platform. Call us at (646) 216-9191 to discuss your business’s tax obligations.

One of the easiest ways to reduce the size of your taxable estate is to take advantage of your gift tax annual exclusion. For 2026, you can transfer up to $19,000 per recipient gift-tax-free. And you can double the exclusion to $38,000 per recipient if you split the gifts with your spouse. But it’s critical to understand the rules of gift-splitting to avoid unintended tax consequences. To elect to split gifts, the spouse making the gift must file a gift tax return, and the other spouse must consent by checking a box on the return and signing it. Contact us at (646) 216-9191 for additional details.

The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners estimates that businesses lose about 5% of annual revenue to occupational fraud. However, organizations with strong antifraud controls — including external financial statement audits and surprise audits — generally experience lower fraud losses and detect fraud more quickly than organizations without those safeguards. Audits don’t provide a guarantee against fraud, but they can help reveal anomalies and errors and identify weaknesses in your business’s controls. If you have questions about your business’s fraud risks or you’d like to discuss our audit and forensic accounting services, call us at (646) 216-9191. We can help strengthen your fraud defenses.

Roth IRA and Roth 401(k) accounts help you save for retirement with after-tax dollars. Both accounts grow tax-free, and distributions are also tax-free if you meet certain conditions. However, higher earners may be ineligible to contribute to a Roth IRA. Income limits don’t apply to Roth 401(k)s, which also allow higher annual contributions. If you’re unsure where to put your retirement savings, contact us at (646) 216-9191 for more information on the tax considerations.

In general, companies can deduct rent as a business expense on their federal tax return. However, several rules limit this tax break. For example, payments made under a conditional sales contract aren’t deductible as rent. And you can’t deduct “unreasonable” rent. This means it’s higher than market value, such as inflated rent paid to a “related person.” If you pay in advance, you can only deduct rent that applies to your use of the property during the tax year. (You’ll be able to deduct the rest in the year to which the payment applies.) On the other hand, you can usually deduct expenses you’ve paid to cancel a business lease. For help identifying deductible expenses, contact us at (646) 216-9191.

If your trust is subject to high state income tax, you may be able to change its residence (or “situs”) to a state with low or no income taxes. Relocating a trust may offer a tax advantage if the trust is an irrevocable nongrantor trust, accumulates (rather than distributes) substantial amounts of ordinary income or capital gains, and can be moved to a state with low or no taxes on accumulated trust income. Call us at (646) 216-9191 for more information.

Expense reporting plays an essential role in operating a profitable business. Consider the following six best practices to get a better handle on the expense management process: 1) Establish formal expense reporting policies. 2) Set deadlines for submitting expense reports. 3) Encourage or require the use of credit or debit cards. 4) Require paper or digital documentation and substantiation for reimbursements. 5) Leverage technology to streamline reporting and integrate with accounting software. 6) Review your processes to help ensure compliance and detect potential fraud. Contact us at (646) 216-9191 for help optimizing your organization’s expense reporting.

The IRS is more likely to audit certain types of businesses, such as those that are primarily cash-based. Although you probably can’t change the nature of your transactions, you can control the accuracy of your tax returns. Minimize errors by maintaining meticulous documentation. Generally, you should keep tax records for at least three years — the normal statute of limitations for an IRS adjustment. And don’t try to go it alone: Call us at (646) 216-9191 for help reducing the likelihood of attracting IRS scrutiny, as well as for support if your tax return is ever questioned.
