A clearer payroll model

Payroll funds should move when they are due—not months before.

AB&P enrolls your business directly with the appropriate tax agencies. That keeps the timing transparent, leaves funds in your account longer, and removes the mystery around where payroll-tax money is sitting.

Funds stay with you until they are due

Payroll taxes move directly from your bank to the appropriate agencies on the required dates—not months ahead of the liability.

Pricing stays understandable

Payroll is billed monthly rather than per run, without per-W-2 fees or a trail of miscellaneous add-ons.

Questions reach experienced people

Your payroll is supported by a real team that understands the account, the filing rhythm, and what needs attention.

Service questions

The details people usually want before they talk.

These answers clarify common boundaries and expectations. Your actual scope is confirmed after the team understands the business.

What can monthly bookkeeping include?

A bookkeeping scope may include transaction categorization, recording checks and expenses, accounts receivable and payable tracking, bank and credit-card reconciliations, loan reconciliations, monthly financial reports, sales-tax filings, annual 1099s, and unsecured property-tax statements.

Can you clean up books that are behind or incorrect?

Yes, the first step is assessing what is incomplete or inconsistent. Cleanup work and ongoing bookkeeping may be staged separately so the team can correct the foundation before establishing a dependable monthly rhythm.

Can you help with accounts receivable and accounts payable?

Receivables and payables tracking can be included. The exact workflow—what AB&P manages, what stays with your internal team, and which approvals are required—is defined during scoping.

Do you prepare income-tax returns?

No. AB&P does not prepare income-tax returns. The team keeps your books organized and tax-ready so your CPA or tax preparer has reliable records to work from. Payroll-tax reporting and sales-tax filings are separate services that may be included in scope.

What does full-service payroll include?

Payroll services can include customized processing, employee direct deposit, state and federal payroll-tax reporting, quarterly filings, year-end reporting, and ongoing support from an experienced team.

How are payroll-tax funds handled?

AB&P enrolls the business directly with the appropriate tax agencies so taxes can move from your bank to the agencies when they are due. Funds are not debited months ahead simply to be held by a payroll provider.

Do you charge per payroll run or per W-2?

Payroll is billed monthly rather than per payroll run. AB&P does not charge a separate per-W-2 fee, and the pricing is designed to avoid hidden miscellaneous charges.

Can you help when employees work in different states?

Multi-state employment can create registration, withholding, unemployment-insurance, and filing requirements. AB&P can evaluate the payroll setup and recurring work involved, then confirm whether the business and jurisdictions are a fit for service.

What does business consulting cover?

Consulting may include identifying cash-flow leaks, exploring profitability improvements, aligning decisions with business goals, improving recurring processes, and reducing owner dependence. Recommendations are shaped around the business rather than sold as a generic package.
