Tax Preparation

Accounting & Bookkeeping Glossary

Definition

Tax preparation is the process of compiling financial information and filing tax returns with the IRS and state agencies. For business owners, this includes income tax, self-employment tax, quarterly estimated payments, and various information returns (1099s, W-2s). The quality of your tax return is only as good as the quality of your books — clean bookkeeping makes tax prep faster, cheaper, and more accurate.
