The price is on the table and the questions have not been asked. A price card next to an unanswered question prices a job that has not been described.

The books have a shape
Read The books have a shape
Two companies with the same rough revenue can need different months. One has a single bank and a till. One has a platform, a shop, and a rental on the other side of a city limit. One has payroll already set up. One has a year of payday run out of a personal account. A card with one number beside those questions would be fiction. We do not print fiction.
The questions on this site are the ones that change the shape. Which side of the limit. Whether a short stay is registered. Which entity sent the letter. Whether an election is already in place. Whether the books are current. Answer even two of those and a conversation about the work becomes honest.

After the questions, a call can become an engagement, or it can become a no. Both are useful. The call is not a bill. The form is not a contract. The disclosures page says what the work includes and what a signature here will never cover. Read it. If you need a signed assurance report for a bank, we will say that early and point you to a firm allowed to sign it, with the closed file ready to hand over.
Owners sometimes want a rate before they want to describe the mess. The mess is the work. Describing it is not a favor you do for us. It is how you avoid buying a cleanup that starts in the wrong month.

Think of a Saturday breakfast in town, the ordinary kind, not a banquet. You do not get a bill for a meal you have not ordered. The questions are the order. The month is the meal. We will talk about what it takes once we know which meal you are actually hungry for. Until then the page stays quiet on price, on purpose.

A price card pretends the month has a shape before anyone has opened it. The months we see do not. One still has the bank feed marking a transfer as a sale. One has checks that never cleared and were never voided. One has a payroll file that nobody owns, so deposits and wages drift apart by summer. One has vendors who will need a name and a yearly total before January, and the names are still in a shoebox. Pricing that mix from a card on a website prices a job that does not exist yet.
The questions are how we find the shape. Which side of the city limit. Whether a short stay is registered. Which entity printed the letter. How the company is taxed. Whether last March was tied to the statement or only to the screen. Each answer removes a wrong quote. That is why the page stays quiet on price until the note arrives.
After the questions, a call can become an engagement or a no. Both are useful. The call is not a bill. The form is not a contract. If you need a signed assurance report, we say that at the start and point you to a firm allowed to sign it, with the closed file ready to hand over. If you need the oldest open month brought forward until the bank agrees, that is the work, and we will describe it in the conversation rather than on a card.
Think of breakfast on the square, the ordinary Saturday, not a banquet. You do not get a bill for a meal you have not ordered. The questions are the order. Until we know which month you are actually hungry to finish, a number on this page would be a guess wearing a confident face. We would rather look plain and be right.
A cleanup that starts in the wrong month wastes the one after it too. We begin at the oldest month the statement will not support, name what is open, and only then walk forward. Transfers come out of sales. Old checks get voided or explained. The payroll file gets an owner, and the provider you choose runs payday from that point. When that walk is real, a price describes a job you can recognize. Before the walk, a price is theater. After it, the number can be said in one calm sentence you already understand.
If the mess is a letter, a stay, or a city limit question, say that in the first sentence. Those three change the month as much as a bank that will not tie. We would rather hear the odd fact early than discover it after a quote has already been spoken aloud.
