Ducharme+Associates Corporate Accountants
You're an entrepreneur, not a paper pusher. Don't you want to focus your time and energy on growing your business -- not on accounting? Along with the time saved, D+A can help you save money on office space, equipment, software, and salaries and benefits.
Taxes are one of life's two inevitabilities – let's not mention the other. But taxes don't have to slow you down. D+A can prepare your corporate taxes for federal and provincial filings , communicate with CRA on your behalf, and even assist with audits. We're also experts in Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED), Purchase and Sale of Business, and more.
Honest advice is hard to find these days. But when it comes to your business, it's what you need. D+A can help you decide whether incorporation is right for your business, and can help you file and maintain your company's incorporation.
