    FAQ: Bookkeeping services

    What are the costs of an accounting service in Lyon?

    Accounting service fees in Lyon differ based on the specific needs of each professional or client. We offer transparent and customized pricing, depending on factors such as number of transactions, complexity of your tax situation, and the level of support required.

    Our services include accounting records management, creation of financial reports, tax filings, and strategic consulting to enhance your financial organization. For a tailor-made offer, we evaluate your profile and offer a custom solution.

    What is the role of a chartered accountant in a business?

    A certified accountant plays a central role in the financial oversight and sustainability of a business. Their role goes beyond bookkeeping—they also assist entrepreneurs in making important financial choices.

    We assist firms in handling their day-to-day accounting, maximize tax efficiency, and meet legal obligations. We also deliver expertise in performance analysis, cash flow management, wage management, and creating required financial documents, such as statements of financial position, profit and loss accounts, and fiscal declarations.

    Our mission is to offer entrepreneurs a clear and optimized financial outlook, encouraging development and full tax compliance.

    Can I fully outsource my accounting?

    Yes, it is completely feasible to externalize completely your accounting management. This allows you to devote yourself to expansion while having confidence that your accounting is handled by experts.

    We manage day-to-day accounting, fiscal and social reporting, financial optimization, and compliance monitoring. We provide personalized support based on your business structure and needs, while ensuring total legal conformity.

    Outsourcing your accounting also reduces the risk of errors, optimizes tax management, and improves financial visibility through professional support.

    Life insurance is another valuable solution : after eight years, it offers tax relief, making it an efficient option for wealth transfer and tax optimization.

    Investing in small and medium-sized enterprises or tax-incentivized investment funds (FIP and FCPI) can also grant a tax reduction of up to 25% of the invested amount, subject to conditions.

    These are just a few examples! Our tax experts are here to show you the best tax-saving opportunities for maximum tax reduction.

    How to choose the right legal status for my business?

    Choosing the appropriate legal status is a key step when launching your activity, as it has consequences on your tax regime, social protection, and the entrepreneur’s liability.

    We evaluate your plans to help you select the right structure based on your needs and objectives. For example, a microbusiness may be appropriate for a low-revenue activity with minimal expenses, while a simplified joint-stock company or limited liability company offers more flexibility and legal protection for entrepreneurs planning to expand and hire employees.

    Our support includes a custom assessment of your situation, considering your activity, forecast earnings, and development goals. We help you make an informed decision to maximize tax efficiency and financial management right from the start of your business.
