Engagement Summary:
Brightline CFO was engaged by a family-owned business in a highly regulated industry that faced significant financial challenges following the unexpected passing of the owner. The business, struggling with a considerable tax liability, had cycled through multiple bookkeepers over the past three years without resolving their issues.
​
Our Approach:
Our team began by addressing the current year’s bookkeeping. However, a detailed review of the financial statements uncovered deeper issues requiring extensive adjustments to ensure accuracy and compliance. We identified discrepancies and inconsistencies that had been missed by previous bookkeepers, necessitating a comprehensive cleanup of financial records from the past three years.
​
Results:
Through our thorough approach, we successfully amended the business’s tax returns, resulting in substantial savings. Federal taxes were reduced by $130,000, and state taxes decreased by $53,000. These significant reductions underscore the value and impact of Brightline CFO’s meticulous accounting services.
Engagement Summary:

​
Our Approach:
Our approach involved a detailed analysis of the balance sheet to identify and correct inaccuracies. We made necessary adjustments to accurately reflect the balance sheet, resulting in a cumulative correction to net income. This provided the client with a reliable financial foundation to continue their own bookkeeping with confidence.
Results:
The corrections made to the balance sheet and net income resulted in more accurate financial reporting, offering the client a solid starting point for their bookkeeping efforts. This enhanced accuracy supported better financial decision-making and reporting moving forward.
