Tax Time

2010 Tax Box

It's that time of year, tax time. Like most of you know (and others will learn) I own a pretty small business. I'd like to say a "micro business". Because of that, my accounting system is pretty much run out of a box and a some folders. It doesn't take me long at all to put together all the info for the accountant. I tried quick books once (at the request of the accountant) but it just seemed like a waste of time. It seemed silly to take the time (Time - a precious commodity for the owner of any micro biz) to write myself a payroll check. I pay my withholding quarterly. The Fed gets its money. How many of you are self employed? How many use some software to run your books? How many of you use an accountant?
