FAQ — Real Deal Accounting

Got Questions?

Frequently asked questions

Everything dealership owners ask before getting started.

Do you replace our DMS?

No. We work alongside your existing DMS and accounting tools to produce clean financial reporting and a consistent monthly close — without disrupting your current workflow.

Can you report by department?

Yes — Sales, F&I, Parts, and Service each get their own P&L visibility so you know exactly where your dealership is profitable and where it isn't.

How do you handle inventory?

We implement inventory-aware bookkeeping and reconciliation processes — including floor plan tracking — scoped specifically to your dealership's accounting needs.

Can you help with commissions?

Yes. We support payroll and commission workflows and can handle month-end organization for sales and F&I teams based on your agreed scope.

Can you clean up messy books?

Yes — cleanup and catch-up services are available. Timeline depends on how far behind the books are and the quality of existing data. We'll give you an honest estimate upfront.

What does 'monthly close' mean?

Reconciled accounts + categorized transactions + finalized department-level reports — all delivered on a consistent schedule so you're never waiting to see how the month went.

I used to struggle every year with my self-assessment and receipts. Real Deal Accounting handled everything smoothly and even identified deductions I never knew about. Brilliant service and fast communication.

Our previous accountant only filed returns, but Real Deal Accounting actually planned our taxes. We received proper guidance on S-Corp structure, payroll, and quarterly planning. Highly recommended for anyone wanting long-term savings.
