Cleanup & catch-up

Behind on the Books in Milwaukee, WI?

Months or years behind on the books in Milwaukee? We rebuild the backlog properly, reconcile every account and hand it over CPA-ready with a full change log.

  • Every account reconciled, period by period
  • A defensible record if returns need amending
  • Restated statements for every period we touch

Manufacturers that fall behind carry three kinds of inventory through the gap — raw material, part-built work and finished goods — and if the records collapsed them into one figure, the reconstruction has to separate them before any period-end balance can be relied on.

What's included

What our service covers in Milwaukee

Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.

Missing period reconstruction

Where months are simply absent, we rebuild them from bank, card and processor statements rather than leaving a gap in the ledger.

Restated financial statements

You get a corrected profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow for every period, so you finally see what those years looked like.

Lender-ready statement pack

If the catch-up is for a loan or a sale, we assemble the restated statements into the pack the other side will ask for.

Statement retrieval guidance

Banks hold history further back than most owners expect. We tell you exactly what to request and from whom so the reconstruction can go as far back as it needs to.

Opening balance verification

A catch-up is only as good as the balance it starts from. We verify the opening position rather than assuming the last closed period was correct.

How it runs

What happens after you get in touch

Only the first step needs anything from you.

1

Free assessment call

We look at the file together and establish the real scope — months behind, accounts involved, condition of the records. No judgment.

2

One fixed quote

A single flat fee for the whole project before any work starts. It does not move unless you ask us to expand the scope.

3

We rebuild, then hand over

The backlog is reconstructed period by period, reconciled and documented. At the end you get corrected statements, the change log and a file your CPA can work from.

Good fit

Three categories, reconstructed separately

Each category behaves differently and a single figure hides the movement between them. A build-up in part-built work with flat finished goods indicates something stalled in production, and that is invisible while the categories are merged.

We rebuild the movement through the backlog so each period end shows the split, which is both a more accurate balance sheet and a diagnostic of what was happening in the plant.

Valuation basis is agreed with you and your accountant before the work and applied unchanged across the whole reconstruction.

FAQ

Questions about this service

Anything we have not covered, ask on the call — it is free and there is no follow-up sequence.

Each entity gets its own assessment and its own quote, since they are rarely behind by the same amount or in the same way. We keep the treatment consistent across them.
