How much does bookkeeping cost for a small business in London?

Plans start at $199/month, with the exact rate depending on transaction volume, business structure, and whether payroll is included.

How does the 2026 Ontario small business tax rate change affect my business?

If your corporation has a fiscal year that straddles July 1, 2026, your provincial tax rate needs to be prorated between the old 3.2% rate and the new 2.2% rate — not simply averaged. We can help make sure your books reflect this correctly.

Do you understand HST as a single blended tax?

Yes — Ontario’s 13% HST combines the federal and provincial portions into one tax, administered entirely by the CRA, which is simpler than provinces with separate GST and PST.

Do you file HST returns directly?

We prepare and track the figures you need, ready for filing. If you’d like us to coordinate directly with your accountant for the actual filing, we’re happy to do that.

What’s the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant?

A bookkeeper manages day-to-day transaction recording, categorization, and reconciliation. An accountant handles income tax preparation and higher-level financial statement work. We are a bookkeeping firm, not a CPA firm.

What Is HST-Ready Bookkeeping?

HST-ready bookkeeping means your taxable sales and input tax credits are tracked accurately throughout each period, so your return is ready to file with the CRA on time. In Ontario, HST is a single blended 13% tax (unlike BC’s separate GST and PST), which simplifies rate calculation but still requires the same $30,000 small- supplier registration threshold and 29-day registration window as everywhere in Canada.

Why London Businesses Need Professional Bookkeeping

Patterns we see regularly among London clients:

Professional services accounting — insurance and financial services businesses need clean revenue tracking and accurate expense categorization.

Healthcare and research-adjacent billing — businesses connected to London’s medical research community often have grant funding or research-contract billing that needs separate tracking.

Manufacturing cost tracking — London’s manufacturing businesses need consistent categorization of materials and production costs.

Owner time — every hour spent reconciling accounts is an hour not spent growing the business.

Ontario Business Landscape: Key Facts

Ontario uses a single blended HST of 13% — 5% federal plus an 8% provincial component — administered together by the CRA, unlike BC’s separate GST-plus-PST system or Alberta’s GST-only approach.

Ontario’s small business corporate tax rate permanently dropped from 3.2% to 2.2% on July 1, 2026 — combined with the 9% federal rate, that brings the all-in rate on the first $500,000 of active business income down to 11.2% going forward

(previously 12.2%).

For any corporation with a fiscal year that straddles July 1, 2026, the tax rate for that year needs to be prorated between the old and new provincial rates — not simply averaged, but calculated based on the exact number of days before and after the change.

Recent Bookkeeping and Tax Updates in Ontario

The small business tax rate cut is now law, not a proposal. As of July 1, 2026, Ontario’s provincial small business rate dropped permanently from 3.2% to 2.2% — over 375,000 Ontario businesses are expected to benefit.

Businesses with a December 31 year-end face a blended

2026 rate of approximately 11.7%, reflecting the prorated mix of the old and new provincial rates across the calendar year — a detail easy to get wrong without careful bookkeeping.

Ontario’s non-eligible dividend tax credit rate is decreasing from 2.9863% to 1.9863%, effective January 1, 2027, aligning with the lower corporate rate — meaning owner-managers should review their salary-versus-dividend planning before that date.

A temporary enhancement to the HST New Housing Rebate has been proposed, which would remove the 8% provincial portion of HST for qualifying new homes valued up to $1 million, for agreements signed between April 1, 2026 and March 31, 2027 — relevant for businesses in residential construction or real estate.

This section will be updated periodically to reflect regulatory changes — always confirm current requirements with your accountant before making filing decisions.

Common Bookkeeping Challenge in London

A research-adjacent business doesn’t separate grant funding from other revenue, making it impossible to report accurately to the funding body at year-end without weeks of manual reconstruction.

Structured monthly bookkeeping keeps this separated from the start.
