F.A.Q's

We support licensed cannabis and hemp operators across the entire supply chain. Our clients include retail dispensaries, delivery services, commercial cultivators, manufacturers/processors, and distributors. Whether you are a single-location boutique retailer or a vertically integrated operator, our specialized accounting systems are designed to scale with your business.

Section 280E is the single largest tax burden facing cannabis operators, prohibiting standard deductions for regular business expenses. We specialize in legally mitigating 280E exposure by applying strict inventory costing methods under IRC Section 471. We ensure your chart of accounts is meticulously structured to maximize your allowable Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) deductions, protecting your cash flow and keeping you fully IRS-compliant.

Yes. State regulatory compliance is vital to protecting your license. We ensure that your state-mandated seed-to-sale tracking systems (such as Metrc) perfectly reconcile with your point-of-sale (POS) systems and your core accounting records. We help you implement internal controls, cash handling procedures, and inventory audit workflows that prevent compliance discrepancies and minimize audit risk.

Securing and maintaining a stable bank account is a major hurdle in this industry. While we are an independent accounting firm, we actively help our clients establish and preserve compliant cannabis banking relationships. We set up airtight cash handling procedures, daily vault reconciliations, and transparent financial reporting structures that give cannabis-friendly financial institutions the exact compliance documentation they require.

Standard accountants and out-of-the-box QuickBooks setups are not equipped for the complex realities of cannabis compliance. A generic setup will fail to properly separate non-deductible expenses under 280E, leading to severe tax penalties during an audit. As a specialized cannabis firm, we build advanced, multi-layered accounting systems that withstand intense regulatory scrutiny while giving you accurate visibility into your true margins.
