Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I owe taxes if my practice showed a loss?
This is often due to “Phantom Income” or principal payments on debt. Loan principal payments are not tax-deductible, but they consume cash. We track this difference to ensure you aren’t surprised by a tax bill when your bank account feels empty.
What is "Basis" and why do I need to track it?
Basis is essentially your “skin in the game.” If you don’t have enough Basis, the IRS won’t let you deduct your business losses. We monitor this year-round to ensure you don’t leave valuable tax write-offs on the table.
How often do we meet to plan my taxes?
We meet quarterly for tax projections. This ensures we can adjust your estimated payments in real-time based on your actual profitability, so you never overpay the IRS or face an underpayment penalty.
How do you determine my S-Corp "Reasonable Salary"?
We use data, not a rule of thumb. We benchmark your salary against what a hired associate would be paid for your specific production level in your zip code. This “RC Reports” method provides the defensible documentation needed to satisfy the IRS while keeping your payroll taxes low.
