Delaware · Monthly Bookkeeping
Recurring monthly bookkeeping for Delaware businesses — real reconciliations, a full monthly close, and a financial package (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) by the 15th. Gross receipts tracked by activity and the franchise-tax reserve verified each month, all in your own QuickBooks file, by a named Certified ProAdvisor across New Castle, Kent, and Sussex counties.
Certified by Intuit
Real credentials held by our firm and operators — verification available on request.
Delaware monthly bookkeeping is a recurring engagement where a named Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor closes your books every month — reconciling every bank and credit-card account against the actual statements, categorizing transactions, keeping AP and AR current, verifying payroll and gross receipts tracked by activity, setting the franchise-tax reserve, and delivering a monthly financial package: P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement. For Delaware businesses the close package lands by the 15th of the following month.
It’s the ongoing engagement that follows cleanup or catch-up — or the right starting point if your books are already current. Everything runs in your own QuickBooks Online file, kept management-ready, not just tax-ready. Each month the same person stays on your file, so context is never lost — including for holding companies and out-of-state-owned Delaware entities run entirely on a single monthly cadence.
Every engagement is a fixed monthly fee against a written scope (from $400/mo by complexity), never hourly. It’s part of TechBrot’s broader Delaware bookkeeping services. We do the books and coordinate with your CPA, who files — TechBrot is an independent Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor firm, not a CPA firm and not a registered agent; not affiliated with Intuit Inc.; does not file Delaware returns or the franchise tax.

Past DIY
Self-managing the books worked when the business was small. Now the time, the errors, and the missed insights cost more than a professional bookkeeper would — and the books quietly slip behind.
Real-time numbers
If you’re only seeing financials at tax time, you’re flying blind 11 months a year. A monthly close gives you real numbers to make decisions on while they still matter.
CPA-ready
CPAs charge significantly more when they have to clean up your books at tax time. Monthly bookkeeping delivers a reconciled year-end package they can file directly from.
Post-cleanup
The natural next step. Monthly keeps the books in the state cleanup just delivered — the same ProAdvisor continues without context loss.
Watched numbers
SBA loans, lines of credit, investors, and boards all need timely monthly financials. A monthly close is what makes that reporting credible and on time.
Owned from afar
Holding companies and out-of-state owners need a single, reliable monthly cadence on the Delaware entity’s books — with the franchise-tax reserve and any in-state gross receipts kept current, coordinated with the home-state CPA.
A recurring engagement where a named Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor closes your books every month — reconciling accounts against real statements, categorizing transactions, verifying payroll and gross receipts by activity, setting the franchise-tax reserve, and delivering a monthly package: P&L, balance sheet, cash flow.
By scope, not by hour: from $400/mo, set by transaction volume, number of accounts and entities, payroll, and complexity. A fixed monthly fee against a written scope, always. See Delaware pricing.
Bank and credit-card reconciliations, categorization, AP/AR upkeep, payroll and gross-receipts verification by activity, the franchise-tax reserve, monthly close, and the financial package. Larger engagements add quarterly reviews, multi-entity / holding-company consolidation, and year-end prep.
By the 15th of the following month — January books close, the January package lands by February 15. Complex multi-entity or inventory engagements may close by the 20th. The timeline is set in your written scope.
Monthly starts from a current state. Behind-but-structured books need catch-up; messy or commingled books need cleanup first. Most clients move straight from cleanup or catch-up to monthly with the same ProAdvisor.
Same shape every month. You always know where your books are and when you’ll see them.
Bank feeds sync. Statements drop. Payroll runs reconcile. Receipts and supporting documents arrive through the secure portal — so the month’s raw data is complete before the close work begins.
Your ProAdvisor categorizes transactions, reconciles every bank and credit-card account against the actual statements, investigates anomalies, and escalates anything that needs your input before it can be closed.
Month closed. Gross receipts verified by activity and the franchise-tax reserve checked. Quality review against the operating standard. P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement generated, with variances and plain-English commentary prepared alongside them.
The monthly close package is delivered to you — reviewable in the portal, downloadable, and ready to share with your CPA, board, or lender. Same shape every month, on the same date.
Every TechBrot monthly engagement delivers these workstreams. Larger Delaware engagements layer additional services on top.
Gross receipts are tracked and verified in the books by business activity and reconciled for filing; the franchise-tax reserve is tracked and confirmed. You or your CPA file the gross-receipts return with the Division of Revenue, and your CPA or registered agent files the franchise tax. TechBrot does not file tax returns or the franchise tax.
Every monthly engagement is priced against a written scope. Most Delaware engagements fall into one of three tiers based on volume and complexity.
From $400/month
For: simple books, 1–2 bank accounts, single entity, low transaction volume, no payroll or simple payroll.
Most common
Fixed-fee · scoped to volume
For: active Delaware businesses, multiple bank and credit accounts, payroll, gross receipts tracked by activity.
Fixed-fee · custom scope
For: multi-entity and holding-company structures, inventory, multi-state activity, complex payroll, lender/investor reporting.
Monthly bookkeeping starts at $400/mo; the Standard and Complex tiers are priced as a fixed fee against the written scope determined by the diagnostic — by transaction volume, number of entities, payroll, and complexity, never hourly. Most engagements include a one-time onboarding fee covering setup, file review, and first-month verification. See Delaware pricing for full detail.
A bank feed can import a transaction, but it can’t tell you whether margins are slipping, which gross-receipts activity category your revenue belongs in, whether the franchise-tax reserve will cover the bill, or whether cash will cover next month’s payroll. A monthly close turns raw data into numbers you can run the business on — the judgment layer is where the value is.
