How We Integrate
We handle all tax and accounting issues, big or small, with skill and expertise.
Integrated Accounting Solutions (IAS) was founded in 2011 from the idea that many tax reduction opportunities are missed due to lack of communication between financial advisors and accountants. Many investment decisions create tax consequences that need to be coordinated for you to receive the benefit intended. Integrating these key financial functions helps create a solution that benefits you.
The Integrated Accounting Solutions staff aims to provide tax and accounting advice that is investor-friendly and jargon-free. We work closely with businesses and individuals handling their bookkeeping, accounting, payroll, and income tax preparation and filing.
Since we work in the same building as Financial Resource Advisors (FRA), communication between accounting pros and financial advisors happens easily and often! When clients choose to work with both IAS and FRA, they see the benefits.
Great People.
Great Service.
We are committed to being a leading accounting and tax prep company in the Cedar Valley and promise competitive prices, professional service, and a great experience.
