Audit Support
A Insurance Audit is a review conducted by the insurance company to verify that the payroll and revenue figures used to calculate your insurance premiums are accurate. During the year, your insurance premiums are based on estimated payroll and gross receipts. At the end of the policy period, the insurance company requires an audit to compare those estimates with your actual financial records.

Estimate&Invoice Issuance
In business, both estimates and invoices are essential documents used during a transaction, but they serve different purposes.
An estimate is a preliminary document that provides the customer with an approximate cost of goods or services before the work begins. It helps clients understand the expected price, scope, and terms of a project, but it is not a final bill. Estimates can change if materials, labor, or project details are adjusted.
An invoice, on the other hand, is an official request for payment issued after the service has been completed or the product delivered. It includes detailed information such as the final amount due, payment terms, due date, and company details.

- Meals Tax applies to prepared food and beverages sold by restaurants, cafés, and catering services. It is usually a percentage added to the total bill and is collected by the business on behalf of the state or local government.
