I know I know … you are sick of taxes!
And you just paid them (or at least an estimate of what you will owe). But here’s the thing – smart businesses save for taxes throughout the year. So month by month or week by week, they are putting money away for the tax payments they will inevitably owe.
And REALLY smart businesses check in with their CPAs during the year to re-calculate what they will owe. The benefit? Minor disruption at tax time. They smoothed out cash flows because you don’t have to turn over every item in your office to scrape together the money you owe in taxes.
What are the best ways to save for your taxes?
- Get an estimate now from your CPA about what you will likely owe for 2023
- Designate a savings account specifically to set aside money for taxes
- Do the quick math to figure out how much you need to set aside either weekly or monthly (frequency is probably best determined by how cash flows in & out of your business)
- Set up an automated transfer so that these monies get set aside without you having to handle them directly
- Enter those recurring transfers into QBO, so you know that these monies will leave your operating account.
Sound simple? It’s not that hard. If you need help setting this all up, give us a call.
