I am a local CPA with over ten years of accounting experience.  As a CPA licensed by the California Board of Accountancy, I work with individuals, small businesses, not-for-profit organizations, and governmental entities across Northern California.

I offer a variety of services designed to help clients with compliance and planning issues including:

• Income tax return preparation
• Financial statements audits, reviews, and compilations
• Employee benefit plan audits
• Accounting and bookkeeping assistance
• Assistance with accounting software operation
• Contract controllership and supervision services

The end of the year is rapidly approaching, and that means income tax season is almost here.  It's not too late to assess what happened so far in 2007 and what you might be able to do now to affect your income tax situation in April.  Call today and let's schedule an appointment to go over where you are now and where you could be by the end of the year.

• Have you funded a retirement plan this year?
• Have you considered a health savings account?
• Are you aware of your options for college savings?
• Do have you have substantial unreimbursed employee expenses?
• Paying your last state estimated tax payment by 12/31 can give you tax benefits now.

Please call me at (916) 910-3439 or email me at michael@mshimizucpa.com if you have questions or would like to meet and discuss your accounting needs.
