Keeping Chambersburg books current
Chambersburg is the county seat of Franklin County. The borough grew where the Lincoln Highway (US 30) crosses US 11, and Interstate 81 skirts its east side. Leading employers include Chambersburg Hospital, the Chambersburg Area School District and Letterkenny Army Depot, five miles north of town, and Wilson College is here too. Confederate troops burned much of the town on July 30, 1864, and Chambersburg rebuilt.
A Chambersburg contractor, shop or practice can lose track of a month quickly when jobs overlap and deposits come in from several places. Monthly reconciliation catches missing deposits and duplicate charges while they are easy to fix. Current books also mean tax season is spent reviewing a finished year, not rebuilding one from bank statements.
Monthly reconciliation
Every bank and credit card account is matched to its statement each month.
Catch-up work
Books that are months or years behind get fixed before they turn into a tax problem.
