Pricing philosophy

Three starting points, one conversation.

Every engagement is a monthly retainer in Canadian dollars, quoted after a 20-minute call. Final pricing depends on transaction volume, the number of accounts reconciled, payroll complexity, and whether catch-up work is needed at the start.

  • Steady

    $500 to $750 CAD / month

    Single-entity businesses with straightforward transaction volume (0 to 50 monthly transactions).

  • Considered

    $800 to $1,200 CAD / month

    Businesses with more moving parts — multi-account, payroll, or higher volume (50 to 150 monthly transactions).

  • Bespoke

    $1,250 to $2,000 CAD / month

    Holding companies, multi-entity structures, and fractional controller engagements (150 or more monthly transactions).

What we do not do

Where our work ends.

Coal Harbour Bookkeeping is a bookkeeping and financial operations firm, not a CPA practice. The following are outside our scope — they stay with your CPA, and we coordinate directly with them.

  • Corporate tax filing (T2)
  • Personal tax filing (T1)
  • Audit and assurance engagements
  • Tax planning and tax advisory
  • Legal, immigration, or investment advice

If a client does not yet have a CPA, we refer to a short list of Vancouver firms we have worked alongside for years.
