The Situation
The client, a growing small business, was experiencing financial management challenges that were impacting their profitability. In 2021, their net income stood at $2.5 million, but they were paying nearly $300,000 in taxes due to various issues, including untracked sales, missed chargeback costs, merchant fee inventory, and lack of proper inventory and purchase record-keeping. Additionally, the client faced issues related to loans, as they were not recording loan interest and depreciation expenses, and they were using personal accounts for business purposes without proper documentation.

• Inventory and Expense Tracking: XOA TAX implemented a robust inventory tracking system,
ensuring all sales, chargeback costs, merchant fees, and purchase inventory were meticulously

• Loan Management: XOA TAX established a loan schedule, recording loan interest and depreciation expenses in compliance with accounting principles.
• Expense Classification: Personal expenses were carefully classified and separated from business expenses, ensuring transparency and accuracy in financial reporting.
Results
• XOA TAX's expert bookkeeping services delivered remarkable results for the client:
• Improved Financial Reporting: The client's income statement now accurately reflected their financial reality, providing a clearer picture of their business's performance.
• Tax Savings: Through precise expense tracking and reporting, XOA TAX reduced the client's tax payable by 50%, saving them a substantial amount of money.

The Challenge
1 Incorrect Classification of Expenses:
• Johnson, LLC erroneously recorded all repair and equipment expenses directly into the Profit and Loss Statement (P&L).
• This incorrect classification leads to a misstated principle amount of equipment, affecting the accuracy of the financial statements.
1 Incorrect Classification of Expenses:
• Johnson, LLC erroneously recorded all repair and equipment expenses directly into the Profit and Loss Statement (P&L).
• This incorrect classification leads to a misstated principle amount of equipment, affecting the accuracy of the financial statements.
2. Negative Payable and Payroll Liability:
• The presence of negative figures in accounts payable and payroll liabilities suggests errors in accounting entries. This might indicate payments recorded incorrectly, prepayments, or other accounting discrepancies.
The Solution
XOA TAX’s team of experts was involved in the following activities:
1 Recording Expenses Appropriately on the Balance Sheet (BS):
• Equipment costs should be capitalized on the Balance Sheet and not expensed directly on the P&L.
• This capitalization involves recognizing the equipment as an asset and then depreciating it over its useful life.
2 Establishing a Depreciation Schedule:
• Implement a schedule that systematically allocates the cost of the equipment over its useful life.
• This schedule will ensure that the expense recognition aligns with the usage of the asset, following accounting standards like GAAP or IFRS.
Results
• Enhanced Reliability of Financial Reports: Correctly classifying expenses and using a depreciation schedule improves the accuracy of financial statements, making them more reliable for decision-making.
• Reduced Audit Risk: Accurate accounting reduces the risk of issues or discrepancies during an audit, as the financial statements would adhere to standard accounting practices.
• Compliance with Accounting Principles: Properly accounting for assets and expenses ensures compliance with relevant accounting principles, avoiding potential legal or regulatory issues.
• Potential Tax Benefits: By correctly recording expenses and depreciating assets over their useful lives, Johnson, LLC might reduce their taxable income, leading to potential tax savings.
Additional Considerations
• Reviewing Historical Entries: It might be necessary to adjust previous accounting records to rectify past misclassifications
• Training and Process Improvement: Ensuring that Johnson, LLC's accounting team understands the correct classification of expenses to prevent future errors.

Been looking for a tax preparer CPA office that provides top-notch services and I finally found it here. I worked with Uyen and she is very prompt answering my questions and concerns. I was able to submit and have everything completed in the comfort of my home. And even after I submitted my taxes and had issues, they were still diligent in helping me address it.Definitely a return customer and would recommend this to anyone needing their taxes prepared.

Found XOA TAX on Google and they've been a life-saver with dealing with my stressful IRS issue that Although my taxes are typically simple this year's situation was more complex than I could handle alone. I contacted Hoang and he responded very promptly. The cost was a bit higher than expected but ultimately worthwhile for the expertise and efficiency provided I submitted all of my documentation and my taxes were completed just two weeks later. I knew I would owe taxes this year and was dreading the process so I'm grateful it was handled smoothly and quickly. Hoang also provided helpful suggestions for planning my tax payments next year. I don't live live in CA anymore but I will likely return to Hoang next tax season because I feel like I can trust him & his team.
