GAAP books and your federal return tell the same story.
When a company in the state raises capital or heads into an acquisition, the first thing sophisticated investors and acquirers ask for is GAAP-compliant financials. Washington has no personal income tax but charges a $60 annual report and a B&O gross-receipts tax. US GAAP advisory turns your books into audit-ready financial statements that bridge the gap between day-to-day records and the standards diligence demands, prepared and reviewed by a licensed CPA and Enrolled Agent.
Why Washington companies need GAAP financials
Most early-stage businesses run on cash-basis (cash basis) books, fine for taxes, but not what investors trust. Converting to GAAP changes that. Accrual-based GAAP and consistent rules so your numbers are comparable, auditable and credible. When a term sheet or letter of intent lands, having GAAP financials ready is the difference between a smooth diligence and a scramble that can sink a deal.

Washington US GAAP questions
What is US GAAP and why do Washington investors want it?
US GAAP is the standard accounting framework. Washington investors and acquirers require GAAP financials in diligence because they make companies comparable and trustworthy. We convert your books to meet it.
What is ASC 606 and does it apply to my Washington business?
ASC 606 governs how you recognize revenue. It matters most for Washington SaaS, subscription and contract businesses, where timing revenue correctly is essential for credible financials.
Do I need an audit in Washington?
Not always, but you often need audit-ready financials for a raise or sale. We prepare Washington statements that hold up to that scrutiny, whether or not a formal audit follows.
Can you fix prior-year Washington books for GAAP?
Yes. We convert historical Washington books to GAAP so your financials are consistent and defensible across periods.
How is GAAP advisory different from bookkeeping?
Bookkeeping keeps the records; GAAP advisory ensures those records follow the standards investors and auditors require. We do both for Washington companies.
