About Nexo Books

Professional experience. Practical support.

Bookkeeping and tax services at nexobooks.ca, a business line of Nexo Group Inc., focused on bookkeeping, reporting, business support and tax work for small businesses.

Faisal, CPA, MBA

A finance professional who starts with the real work.

Faisal brings a professional accounting designation and business education to the everyday financial needs of business owners.

The approach is simple. First, understand the business and the records. Then build a reliable routine. From there, add reporting, planning or tax support where it creates value.

“Your books should tell you what happened, what needs attention, and what you can do next.”

What guides the work

Four operating principles

Accuracy before speed

Fast work is not useful if the records cannot be relied on.

Clarity before volume

A short, useful report is better than a long report no one uses.

Fit before scope

The engagement should match your systems, complexity and goals.

Plain answers

Questions and recommendations should be easy to understand and act on.

Let’s talk about your books and your next decision.

Clear billing

How payment works.

How payment works. We agree your fee in writing before work begins. Choose one of these timing options in your engagement letter: (1) Monthly plan — billed in advance on the 1st of each month for that month’s defined scope. (2) Per-filing / per-project fixed fee — 50% deposit to begin, balance due when the agreed deliverable is provided. (3) Milestone billing for larger projects — invoiced when each agreed milestone deliverable is provided. Fees are fixed in the engagement letter and are payable for the work and deliverables described there. Government filing fees and software subscriptions are extra, plus HST. Your engagement letter states which option applies to you. If there is any difference, the engagement letter controls.

A clear working relationship

Scope, fees and deadlines in writing.

We aim to earn a long-term working relationship by being clear about scope, fees, and deadlines — and by doing the work as agreed. You will have a consistent point of contact who knows your file. If a deliverable does not match the agreed scope, tell us within 14 days and we will correct it. If you have questions about a fee, ask before work begins; we will confirm it in writing.

We work as your independent service provider, not as your legal partner. That means we prepare and file what we agree in your engagement letter, you remain responsible for your records and decisions, and CRA and other authorities make their own decisions. Our role is to keep your filings accurate, on time, and clearly explained.

Our priority is delivering the scope agreed in your engagement letter, on the agreed schedule. If something changes — more transactions, more employees, a CRA letter, a late filing — we will tell you before the fee changes and confirm the revised fee in writing.

What affects the quote

Pricing reflects the work, not just the business size.

  • ✓Number of bank, credit card, loan and payment accounts.
  • ✓Monthly transaction volume and sales channels.
  • ✓Payroll, inventory, foreign currency or project costing needs.
  • ✓Condition of the existing records and amount of catch-up work.
  • ✓Reporting depth, meeting frequency and turnaround expectations.

Payroll + HST/GST FAQ

Before we start

Is payroll software included?

No. Software subscriptions are extra. We confirm the workflow, software and fee in writing before work begins.

They may be included in a plan. Otherwise, additional slips are $19 each. Your quote states what applies.

Can you handle more than 15 employees or multiple provinces?

Yes, subject to a records and scope review. That work receives a custom quote.

Can you fix a late or amended filing?

We first review the period, records and CRA account. Late and amended work is separately scoped, and no CRA outcome is guaranteed.

Year-end + CRA FAQ

Before we start

What does the starting year-end price assume?

It assumes a simple active corporation with clean monthly records. Higher volume, catch-up work, multiple slips or added schedules can increase the fee.

Can you help with a nil or inactive corporation?

Yes. The Starting at range is $239–$399 after we confirm the corporation’s activity, records and filing needs.

Can you guarantee the CRA will accept the response?

No. CRA and other authorities make their own decisions. We prepare the agreed work carefully, but no outcome is guaranteed.

Do you handle objections or voluntary disclosures?

They may be accepted after reviewing the letter, facts, records, stage and deadline. We provide a custom quote and refer legal matters out.

Small business in Ontario

More obligations. Better reasons to stay organized.

Small businesses can face bookkeeping, GST/HST, payroll, income tax, corporate records and financing requests at the same time.

The finance routine

Keep the basics working together

Not every item applies to every business. The right setup depends on your legal structure, activities, accounts and filing obligations.

Records

Keep source documents, invoices, receipts, statements and reconciliations organized so the numbers can be supported.

Sales tax

Track taxable sales, collected GST/HST and eligible input tax credits where registration and filing apply.

Payroll

Maintain payroll records, remittance information and year-end slip support when you have employees.

Income tax

Keep the books ready for personal or corporate filings and review upcoming instalment or balance dates.

Cash flow

Separate profit from cash movement. Plan for tax, payroll, suppliers, debt and owner withdrawals.

Decisions

Use monthly reporting to watch margins, costs, receivables and other measures that fit your business.

Helpful official resources

Start with the source.

Rules and filing requirements can change. These official resources provide current account and professional information.

Build a finance routine that fits your business.

We can start with the records and work outward.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you begin.

Do you only provide bookkeeping?

No. Bookkeeping is the foundation, but reporting, analytics, business planning, proposal support and tax services can be added through an agreed scope.

Can you help if my books are behind?

Yes. Catch-up and clean-up work starts with an assessment. We then define the period, missing information, reconciliations and handover into an ongoing routine.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. Nexo Group Inc., operating at nexobooks.ca, is based in Milton and can support clients across the GTA and Ontario through agreed remote workflows.

Which accounting software do you use?

The software is selected after the business, current file and workflow are reviewed. We do not claim that one platform fits every business.

Do you offer fixed monthly prices?

Monthly bookkeeping may be quoted as a recurring fee, but only after volume, complexity, accounts, current records and reporting needs are reviewed.

Do you provide audit or assurance services?

No. The bookkeeping and tax services at nexobooks.ca do not include audits, review engagements or other assurance services.

Can you deal with the CRA for my business?

CRA correspondence, information requests and account support may be included after authorization and scope are confirmed. Outcomes are not guaranteed.

What happens in the free consultation?

We discuss your business, current bookkeeping, systems, deadlines and goals. If there is a fit, the next step is a records review and written quote.

What should I send before the first call?

You do not need to send sensitive documents for the initial conversation. A simple overview of the business, current software, backlog and key deadlines is enough.

What does website creation include?

The standard scope includes a planning call, a mobile-friendly design, typically Home, Services, About and Contact plus up to 3 additional pages by scope, contact options, basic SEO setup, domain and launch guidance, a launch checklist and short content-update training. It does not include e-commerce checkout, custom web apps, logo design unless separately agreed, ongoing content writing, hosting or domain fees, or ongoing maintenance unless separately agreed.

Will my website rank on Google?

Basic SEO setup, including page titles and descriptions, is included. We do not guarantee Google rankings, traffic, leads or sales.

Who manages my file?

Your file is managed by Faisal, CPA, MBA — your single point of contact. Some work may be performed with support from qualified contractors under Faisal’s supervision and review. Nexo Group Inc. remains responsible for the work we deliver. We do not share your information except as needed to provide your services, as described in our Privacy Policy and your engagement letter.

Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) support for businesses

Monthly reporting and planning that support your next decision.

For owner-managed businesses and healthcare organizations. Business-only management accounting: budgets, forecasts, monthly reporting, and decision support. Not personal financial planning.

Scope: This service is management accounting for your business. It does not include audit, review, or other assurance engagements, personal financial planning, or investment advice. Nexo Group Inc., operating at nexobooks.ca, does not hold a Public Accounting Licence (LPA). Site information is general, and your engagement letter governs. Pricing is quote-based on the actual scope.

The problem this solves

Month-end tells you last month, not next month.

Cash surprises at payroll

Profit on paper does not mean cash in the bank when payroll and suppliers fall due.

Pricing and hiring on gut feel

Without margin by job or client, and without a costed hiring plan, big calls rest on instinct.

Reports nobody acts on

A long pack with no narrative and no decisions sought gets filed, not used.

The monthly rhythm

Close, report, explain, re-forecast, decide.

Every month follows the same rhythm, so decisions rest on where the business is heading, not where it planned to be.

Discovery call

We discuss your business, current records, deadlines, systems, and what is not working.

Deep dive and quote

We review the starting point, define the pack and forecast scope, and confirm the quote in writing.

First pack and forecast

You receive the first monthly pack, the rolling forecast, and the KPI dashboard, with definitions for every metric.

Monthly rhythm

Close, report, explain variances, re-forecast, and bring a short list of decisions to make.

What you get

Core services, every month.

Monthly reporting pack with variance narrative

Profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow against budget and prior year, plus a short written story: what moved, why it moved, and what needs a decision. A short pack for a small business, with departmental appendices for a larger organization.

Rolling forecast, 12 to 18 months

Every month, drop the month just ended and re-forecast the next 12 to 18 months, instead of letting a January budget go stale.

13-week cash flow, updated weekly

Week by week receipts and payments for the next 13 weeks, with actuals replacing forecasts as weeks pass, flagging the lowest cash week and any funding gap before payroll or vendor dates.

KPI dashboard, 6 to 10 defined metrics

Each metric carries a written definition, a formula, a source, a target, an owner, and a cadence, grouped under profitability, liquidity, and efficiency. Standard metrics include gross margin percent, operating margin percent, current ratio, days sales outstanding, days payable outstanding, and budget variance percent. What counts as good is industry-specific, so no single good number is presented without the client's context.

Add-on and project work

Quoted separately, then folded into the monthly pack.

Driver-based model

A forecast built from operating drivers such as volume, price, mix, headcount, capacity, and collections, not a flat growth rate. Change a driver and profit, cash, and headcount move together.

Scenario and what-if planning

Base, upside, and downside cases, plus sensitivities such as a price change, a hiring delay, or a lost contract, showing cash and margin under each case.

Board and investor pack

A board-ready pack: one page executive summary with headlines, status, and decisions sought; performance against budget; cash and runway; KPI dashboard; risks and controls; outlook and scenarios; appendix detail. Sent days before the meeting.

Pricing and margin analysis

Margin by product, service, customer, or channel, contribution after direct costs, and a price, mix, and volume bridge. This answers which jobs or clients actually make money.

Headcount and compensation planning

Forecast headcount by role and start date, fully loaded cost including salary, benefits, and payroll taxes, capacity against demand, and the cost of a hire, a vacancy, or an incentive plan, tied to the driver model.

Funding advocacy support

Preparation of the financial side only: clean historicals, two to five year projections with stated assumptions, a cash flow and debt-service view, a use-of-funds and repayment story, and a lender or investor ready pack, plus coaching for questions. Funding support means preparation, not approval.

Sample pack

Illustrative sample, not a client report.

The figures below are examples only, rounded for illustration, to show the shape of a pack. They are not a client report and not a result.

Sample KPI tiles

Revenue against budget, gross margin percent, cash runway with lowest cash week flagged, and days sales outstanding, each shown against budget or target with a trend direction.

Sample variance chart

A bridge from budget, through price, volume, mix, and cost effects, to actual, so the story behind the movement is visible at a glance.

Sample 13-week cash chart

Weekly bars plus a cumulative cash line, with the lowest week highlighted, so payroll and supplier dates are planned, not guessed.

Core, add-on, and not included

Clear boundaries, in one place.

Core, monthly

Monthly reporting pack with variance narrative, rolling forecast, KPI dashboard, and 13-week cash flow.

Add-on, quoted separately

Driver-model build, scenario planning, board and investor pack, pricing and margin deep dive, headcount plan, funding pack, case costing, MIS cleanup, and Epic revenue-cycle review.

Not included

This service is management accounting for your business. It does not include audit, review, or other assurance engagements, personal financial planning, or investment advice. If you need one of those services, we will tell you so at the discovery call and, where appropriate, refer you to a suitably licensed provider.

Healthcare track

Two tracks, kept separate.

Publicly funded Canadian work and Epic payer work are different jobs, so they are offered as separate tracks.

Canadian funded organizations: MIS and case costing

Reporting in the CIHI Standards for Management Information Systems in Canadian Health Service Organizations, including a functional-centre chart of accounts and workload measurement. In Ontario this sits inside Ontario Healthcare Reporting Standards trial-balance submissions by functional centre and fund type under a service accountability agreement. Case costing means cost per case or per patient episode, grouped by case-mix group and resource intensity weight, compared as cost per weighted case across units and programs. Small clinics receive service-line costing only, not full case-mix costing.

Epic-based organizations: revenue-cycle analytics

Only where the organization actually has Epic charge, claim, and payer data. Gross-to-net patient revenue as a waterfall from gross charges, minus contractual adjustments, to collectible revenue, then payments against that base. Charge capture review, claims and denial analysis by reason and by payer, charge lag, and discharged-not-final-billed watched daily. Published benchmark ranges, not guarantees, and sources disagree on days in accounts receivable, so the range is stated: 30 to 40 days in one set of sources, with under 35 days as best-in-class there, while another presentation puts under 40 to 45 days as the bar. Clean claim rate at or above 95 percent. First-pass denial rate under 5 percent in one presentation, with 5 to 10 percent described as typical elsewhere. Final write-offs under 1 to 2 percent of gross. Charge lag same day to 48 hours as ideal. No Epic partnership or certification is claimed. The service is analysis of data from Epic-based systems, with access governed by the client.

Questions

Clear answers before you begin.

Is this audit or review work?

No. This is management accounting only. It does not include audit, review, or other assurance engagements.

Is this personal financial planning?

No. This is business-only work for businesses and healthcare organizations. It is not personal planning, investment advice, or retirement advice.

Does this replace my bookkeeper?

No. FP&A sits on top of their close. Bookkeeping stays the foundation, and this service turns the close into decisions.

What do you need from us?

A simple overview first: business type, current records and software, how far the books are up to date, and upcoming deadlines. Detailed records follow after scope is agreed.

How is pricing set?

Quote-based, after a discovery call. Scope, entities, cadence, and systems determine the fee. No price is published for this service.

What happens first?

A free consultation, then a deep dive and a written quote. The first pack and forecast follow once scope is agreed.

Software systems, coming soon

Accounting and payroll, on one cloud platform.

Two systems built together as one Nexo Books service at nexobooks.ca. Web-based, with nothing to install. The systems are in development and are not yet available. Pricing is to be confirmed, and quoted on actual scope.

Status: In development. These systems are being built now and are not yet available for sale. Features below are grouped as In development (launch scope), Planned (later phase), and Not planned. No launch date is set.

Who it is for

Built for the business that outgrows spreadsheets.

Owner-managed small business

Send invoices, track bills, reconcile the bank, and read a monthly report, without re-keying the same figures in three places.

Growing business with staff

Run payroll on the same platform as the books, with approvals, roles, and an audit log as more people touch the money.

Businesses that want Nexo Books to run it

Use the systems yourself, or have Nexo Books run payroll and bookkeeping for you on the same platform. Accountant access is granted and revoked by the business owner.

Two systems at a glance

One platform, two systems, one ledger.

Accounting, complete suite

General ledger, bank reconciliation, invoicing and receivables, bills and payables, HST and GST, expenses, reporting, billing, procurement, inventory, budgets, multi-currency, migration, mobile access, AI assistance, and API and file import.

Payroll system

Ontario payroll at launch, for hourly and salary staff, on weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly pay. Deduction engine, pay stubs, remittance reports, T4s, and ROE data, with payroll journals posting into the accounting system automatically.

One platform, by design

One tenant across accounting and payroll, shared roles and audit log, and no re-keying between payroll and the books. CRM, HR, and ERP systems are inputs to this platform, not modules it builds.

Accounting: what it covers

Grouped by the job, not by technical name.

All items in this section are In development, as launch scope, unless a later section says otherwise.

Sell: invoicing, receivables, and billing

Invoices, quotes and estimates, sales orders, retainers and deposits, progress billing, and recurring invoices. Reminders, customer statements, credit notes, write-offs, and a customer portal for invoice, statement, and document access. Payment links arrive with online payment acceptance, which is Planned.

Spend: bills, payables, expenses, and procurement

Vendor bills and credits, recurring bills, and AP aging. Vendor onboarding, purchase orders, goods and service receipt, matching, and vendor-portal invoice upload. Expenses by phone photo receipt capture, with pre-fill and human confirmation, approval workflow, duplicate detection, mileage, billable tagging, and receipts retained for 7 years.

Bank and books: accounts, reconciliation, and ledger

Bank accounts, reconciliation with outstanding items and a reconciliation report, and manual CSV import with saved per-account column mappings. Chart of accounts, journal entries, period locking, and year-end. Automatic bank and card feeds are Planned.

Tax: HST and GST

HST and GST tracking for Ontario and GST, ITC tracking, and filing-ready reports mapped to return lines. HST NETFILE and QST filing are Planned. Place-of-supply tax codes for every province, including PST and QST, are Planned.

Understand: reporting and budgets

Trial balance, profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow statement, general ledger detail, AR and AP aging, HST summary, and bank reconciliation reports. KPI dashboard, scheduled monthly report pack, and budgets with forecasting by account, department, and project, plus variance and cash-flow forecast.

Grow: inventory, currency, time, migration, mobile, and AI

Light inventory with quantity on hand, reorder alerts, cost of goods sold on sale, and purchase-to-stock linkage. Multi-currency for foreign receivables, payables, and bank accounts, with rate tables, revaluation, and FX gain and loss. Time and project costing with billable time, project profit and loss, and time-to-invoice. Guided migration from QuickBooks and Xero. Full mobile surface for invoice status, approvals, expense submission, and dashboard. AI layer for auto-categorisation, match suggestions, duplicate and anomaly detection, and reminder drafting, which never posts without a rule or approval.

Payroll: what it covers

Ontario payroll at launch, on the same platform.

All items in this section are In development, as launch scope, unless a later section says otherwise.

Pay runs

Hourly and salary pay, on weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly schedules. Runs are approved, then locked. Corrections go through adjustment runs, never by editing a locked run.

Deduction engine

CPP, EI, and federal and Ontario tax including surtax, from versioned deduction tables. No real pay run uses an unverified table set: tables pass an automated verification suite and an independent second-person review before they are published, and prior years stay frozen.

Pay stubs and records

Pay stubs meeting Ontario employment standards content requirements. Employee records with encrypted, masked SIN display. Reports register, year-to-date totals, and remittance history.

Remittance and year-end

PD7A remittance reports with due dates, T4s with T4 Summary and CRA XML, and ROE data export. The first release prepares these reports and files, with no automatic remittance. Direct deposit, automatic remittance, and automatic filing come later.

Self-serve and managed

Employees can update their own direct-deposit details, with the change audit-logged and notified to the employer. Use the system yourself, or have Nexo Books run payroll for you, with owner-controlled accountant access and every action audit-logged.

Ontario scope, stated plainly

Payroll is for Ontario employers at launch, with province kept as configuration so it can scale later. Other provinces come later, with Alberta and British Columbia first and Quebec last.

How the work flows

One honest workflow per system.

Accounting workflow

Send the invoice

Create and send the invoice, with payment status tracked.

Record the payment

Match the payment to the invoice and update receivables.

Reconcile the bank

Agree the books to the bank before reports are trusted.

Read the report

Review profit, cash, and aging, with drill-down to the entry behind each figure.

Payroll workflow

Approve the pay run

Review the draft run, then approve it before it locks.

Issue the pay stub

Each employee receives a readable stub with gross, deductions, net, and year-to-date figures.

Prepare the remittance report

Review the PD7A totals and due date before anything is sent.

Post to the books

The locked pay run posts its journals into accounting automatically, with no re-keying.

Roadmap

Now, Next, and Later, with no dates.

Status words are used everywhere on this page: In development means launch scope being built now, Planned means a later phase, and Not planned means it is not on the roadmap.

Now: In development

The launch scope in the sections above: the accounting suite and Ontario payroll, masters and document vault, firm tools, approvals and permissions, and the compilation-ready year-end pack as management information.

Next: Planned

Automatic bank and card feeds, online payment acceptance with portal pay links, payment scheduling and batch and EFT payment runs, HST NETFILE and QST filing, place-of-supply tax codes for every province, including PST and QST, T4A and T5018 slips from AP data, fixed assets and CCA, department, class, and location tagging, and pre-built API connectors. For payroll, direct deposit with automatic remittance and filing, multi-province payroll, contractor T4A, benefits and pension items, garnishments and union dues, time tracking, mobile access, and direct ROE Web submission.

Later: Planned, gated

Advanced revenue recognition only, as a gated add-on. It is not part of the launch scope and not part of the next phase.

Included, planned, and not planned

Clear boundaries, in one place.

Included at launch

The accounting suite and Ontario payroll in the sections above, on one platform, with masters, document vault, firm tools, approvals, and the year-end pack as management information.

Planned later

The Next items in the roadmap above, in the order listed there. Nothing in this panel is available at launch.

Not planned

Full HRIS, multi-entity consolidation, CRM, e-commerce, and POS systems, warehouse and manufacturing, advanced sourcing, tax preparation, and compiled statements as a system function. Compilation stays a separate Nexo Books service, with an engagement letter and CPA sign-off. The year-end pack is management information that supports a compilation engagement, and no compilation report is generated by the system.

Integrations and limits

Connected where it helps, honest where it does not.

How it connects

From launch, every module accepts API and file import, under the same integrity rules: nothing posts unreviewed, nothing is silently dropped, and everything is audit-logged. Imports are idempotent, so replaying an import changes nothing. Where a client runs an ERP system, trial-balance and subledger export are provided with a saved chart-of-accounts mapping and a tie-out report.

Limits, stated plainly

CRM, HR, e-commerce, and bank sources are inputs, not modules Nexo Books builds. Named ERP targets, including NetSuite, Dynamics 365 Business Central, SAP Business One, Sage Intacct, Odoo, and Acumatica, arrive as pre-built connectors in client-demand order, with the generic API and CSV path available from launch. No named connector is claimed as live until it is built and tested.

Security and trust

Financial data deserves careful handling.

Security

Encryption in transit and at rest, with a separate key for SIN and banking details, masked display of SIN and bank accounts, two-factor login including SMS codes, server-side permissions, an audit log kept for at least 7 years, daily backups, and Canadian-region hosting planned. The audit log is a software record of who changed what and when. It is not an audit service.

CPA-led

Led by Faisal, CPA, MBA. Work starts with a consultation, then a written scope in an engagement letter, then onboarding. This service does not include audit, review, or other assurance engagements, and Nexo Group Inc., operating at nexobooks.ca, does not hold a Public Accounting Licence (LPA).

Onboarding and pilot

What happens first: consultation and fit check, engagement letter and scope, secure data collection, setup and migration help, training on sending an invoice, reconciling the bank, and checking reports, then check-ins. Pilot places are offered in small batches by fit, with guided onboarding and a feedback channel. No payment is taken at registration. Register interest through the contact form, or join the pilot waitlist.

Questions

Clear answers before you begin.

Is it available yet?

No. The systems are in development and are not yet available for sale. Register interest through the contact form, or join the pilot waitlist, and you will be contacted when pilot places open.

When will it launch?

No launch date is set. The roadmap above uses Now, Next, and Later buckets, with no dates attached, and the page will be updated as phases complete.

How much will it cost?

Pricing is to be confirmed, and quoted on actual scope. No price is published for these systems.

Does payroll pay employees or file with the CRA?

In the first release, the system prepares remittance reports, T4s, and ROE data. It does not move money automatically. Direct deposit, automatic remittance, and automatic filing come later.

Which provinces does payroll cover?

Ontario employers at launch. Other provinces come later, with Alberta and British Columbia first and Quebec last.

Does it replace my bookkeeper or accountant?

No. Use the systems yourself, or have Nexo Books run bookkeeping and payroll for you on the same platform. Accountant access is granted and revoked by the business owner.

Can I leave with my data?

Yes. Data can be exported in standard formats, so the business is not locked in. Full export is tested before launch.
