I prepared and reconciled the year-end balance sheet (as of December 31, 2025) for a small business client, giving them accurate, review-ready financial statements.
Scope of work:
Reconciled business checking and savings accounts to bank statements
Tracked and cleaned up accounts receivable and accounts payable
Recorded the company vehicle as a fixed asset and calculated accumulated depreciation
Categorized short-term and long-term loans correctly, including a bank loan and a credit card balance
Set up and reconciled the equity section: owner's investment, owner's draws, partner distributions, retained earnings, and net income
Confirmed the balance sheet balances, with total assets equal to total liabilities and equity
Result:
The client received a clean, accurate balance sheet showing their true financial position, including cash, receivables, debts, and owner equity. It was ready to hand to their accountant, lender, or tax preparer.
Year-end giving season is about 90 days out — and for most nonprofits, it's when close to a third of annual donations come in, in the space of a few weeks.
That's not the moment to discover your restricted fund tracking is off, or that your board can't get a clean report on short notice. September is when that gets fixed, not December.
If your books aren't ready to handle the year-end push yet, now's the window to close that gap.
BEFORE: Client had messy Excel inventory with 500 rows, duplicates (A12 / a12), blanks, wrong prices like "$ 2.5" and "N/A", and different warehouse names (KER / ker / Kericho).
AFTER: I did:
Removed 12 duplicate SKUs
Standardized item names to Title Case
Fixed QTY and Prices to 2 decimals
Unified Warehouse to Kericho
Made sheet ready for pivot dashboard
Result: Clean, ready-to-use inventory in 2 days using Excel.
Tools: Excel, Remove Duplicates, Text to Columns, TRIM, PROPER
