Common questions

Before we begin.

Clear expectations are part of clean books.

Is North Ledger a real bookkeeping firm?

No. This entire website is a fictional portfolio demonstration created by Dimension Eight Labs. It does not offer or provide real services.

What would a monthly engagement include?

In a real engagement, scope would be based on transaction volume, accounts, reporting needs, and record condition. The packages here are illustrative examples only.

Do you prepare or file taxes?

No. The fictional bookkeeping scope shown here excludes tax filing and tax advice. Those needs should be handled by a qualified tax professional.

What information should I put in the form?

Only general demonstration details. Do not enter account numbers, tax IDs, financial records, passwords, or other sensitive information. Nothing is transmitted or stored.
