Bookkeeping & management accounts
Transactions recorded and reconciled on a monthly cycle, with a management report that shows income, costs and cash position in plain language.
Division 01 — Accountancy & advisory
Books that balance. Filings that land on time.
Bookkeeping, payroll, tax filing support and audit-ready financial statements for Liberian businesses, institutions and non-profits — handled by people who will explain the numbers, not just produce them.
Overview
Financial records you can make decisions with
Most finance problems we are called in to fix are not complicated. They are late: receipts in a shoebox, a filing deadline already passed, a bank balance nobody can reconcile.
Our accountancy division puts a routine around that. Transactions are recorded on a schedule, management accounts arrive monthly instead of annually, and statutory obligations are tracked on a calendar you can see. When an auditor, a lender or a donor asks a question, the answer is already in the file.
We work with businesses that have no internal accountant at all, and alongside finance teams that need an extra pair of hands at year end.
Who this division is for
- Small and medium businesses with no in-house accountant
- Companies preparing for an audit, loan application or donor review
- NGOs and projects with grant reporting obligations
- Organisations behind on bookkeeping or tax filings
- Finance teams needing year-end or payroll support

Services
Where our accountants do the work
Engage one service or the full finance function. Each is quoted separately so you only pay for what you actually need.
Financial statements
Year-end statements prepared from your records — income statement, balance sheet and supporting schedules, formatted for lenders, auditors and boards.
Tax registration & filing support
Registration guidance and preparation of returns for filing with the Liberia Revenue Authority, with a deadline calendar so nothing is filed late.
Payroll administration
Monthly payroll runs, payslips, statutory deduction schedules and clean records of every payment made to staff.
Audit preparation & liaison
We assemble the schedules, reconciliations and supporting documents auditors ask for, and answer their queries on your behalf.
Budgeting & cash-flow planning
Forecasts built on your real numbers, so you can see the month a shortfall is coming rather than discovering it.

- A written filing calendar with every statutory deadline

Process
From shoebox to audit-ready
A first engagement usually takes one cycle to stabilise. After that, the routine runs and you stop thinking about it.
Records review
We look at what exists — ledgers, bank statements, invoices — and tell you honestly where the gaps are.
Scope & fee
A written engagement letter setting out services, monthly or one-off fees and the records you need to provide.
Catch-up & setup
Historic transactions are brought up to date and a reporting routine is put in place.
Monthly cycle
Books closed, accounts issued, deadlines met — with a short call whenever the numbers need explaining.
Questions
Accountancy — frequently asked
Do you work with very small businesses?
Yes. A single-owner trading business with a few dozen transactions a month is a normal engagement for us, and it is usually the point at which good records are cheapest to establish.
Our books are months behind. Is that a problem?
It is common, and it is fixable. We quote catch-up work separately from the ongoing monthly service so you can see exactly what the backlog costs to clear before committing.
Can you take over from our current accountant mid-year?
Yes. We request the trial balance, ledgers and last filed return, reconcile the opening position and continue from there. A mid-year handover does not require you to restart the financial year.
What records do we need to give you?
Typically bank statements, sales invoices, purchase invoices and receipts, payroll details and any prior year statements or returns. We send a short checklist with the quotation so nothing is guessed at.
Do you provide the actual statutory audit?
No — an external auditor must be independent of whoever prepares the accounts. We prepare your records and schedules to the standard an auditor expects, then work with the auditor you appoint.
