Methodology: Fee ranges use a transaction-volume base model (first 50 transactions: $120; each additional 10: +$18) plus entity complexity multipliers (1.0x–1.7x), software multipliers (0.85x–1.35x), payroll ($22/employee/month), and additional accounts ($35/account/month). Market benchmarks from 2025–2026 US bookkeeping industry surveys and AICPA MAP Survey data. Catch-up estimates based on average practitioner-reported backlog cleanup rates.
