Nth Degree CPAs
What if you have a team of financial experts who all year long were helping you to pay the least amount in taxes required while optimizing your business or personal cash flow? Nth Degree CPAs specializes in a variety of financial services in Seattle and beyond, whether you need a personal CPA or a small business tax accountant.

Remember that fateful day when you decided to start your business? And, when you decided to go all-in and leave behind guaranteed income from a job? No doubt there were moments of euphoria and thoughts of how you'd change the world, your family tree and/or disrupt an industry. That's easier said than done, right?
Services
Everyone says "we're committed to our values and organizational purpose." But, here at Nth Degree, we really mean it! It's not some clich set of words we developed while powering out a business plan. We spent hours each week for several months as a leadership team and then as collective team developing and aligning on our purpose and vision statements.
Would you like to pay the least amount in taxes legally allowable? Or, have digestible financial reports that tell you what's going on with your business in seconds. We've yet to have someone say "no" to these questions. But, if you're always looking in the past when it comes to your taxes or receiving reports late that are pages long how are you achieving this goal?
Every business is different so we customize the options to your needs based on your Financial Certainty Roadmap. Here are the most common options:. Each Client's frequency is different and will be determined as to what is best on a case-by-case basis. Average prices are just that, averages. Each Client's situation is unique.
Client was facing a short-term liquidity crisis. We analyzed their financials to uncover root causes and provided an action plan to immediately correct the systemic issues and manage their way out of the liquidity crisis. Client's books were not delivered in a timely matter by their previous bookkeeper.
In a cash flow statement, the cash position at the end of the month represents the amount of cash that the company has on hand, at that moment in time. This cash position is a sign of financial strength and liquidity of the company, representing the ability of the company to meet their current liabilities.

Kyle was very friendly and helpful in answering my questions and referring me to other sources, even though my tax situation is relatively straightforward and did not warrant hiring Nth Degree.

Well, I'd love to be able to provide a more personal review - but the online screening process they have to set up an interview rejected me. After answering their questions I was told I wasn't a "fit" for them. Given the fact that I was looking for some pretty complicated S-Corp tax and transition issues (which I expected to pay for), the only reason I could have been rejected was (i) I didn't list enough income, or (ii) the computer automatically rejected it as too complex (?) Hmmmh, not feeling warm and fuzzy about the whole "relationship" vibe they promote

Dan and his team at Nth Degree CPAs make my life 1,000 times easier as a business owner. I know my finances are being taken care of, and they make the work output for me minimal (almost non-existent) so that I can focus on revenue generating activities.

€œNth Degree CPA’s has been an excellent firm to work with, organizing our books and preparing our taxes on time keeping our best interests in mind and ensuring compliance with the IRS. Our firm had been through several bookkeeping companies, never receiving the full service we really needed to maintain a health back-end to our business. This required a lot of work from our small in-house staff, taking time away from what we do best – providing premium services to our clients. Nth Degree took the pressure off of the daily financial tasks and bought a partnership mentality to our company as

My 2019 income tax return was filed this year by the professional experts at Nth Degree CPAs. My first-year experience with Nth Degree could not have been any better. Every encounter I had with the office staff and their certified public accountants can only be described as outstanding. The online tools Nth utilizes never left me wondering about the status of my federal tax return as well as my Colorado state tax return. The automated platform Nth has in place allowed and reminded me on a regular basis what data was needed to complete my tax returns. Timely reminders made the tax return process

Good group of smart people. We did not sign with them. Here are the things that bothered us.

1. They want $7800 for a consult aka road map to become their client. We negotiated them down to $6800. It was not worth it. The document oversold savings significantly and while it was done well we felt was cookie cutter. We consider this a $6800 loss for simply considering them.

2. They wanted $3300 per month or 39k quoted to us for many things we would have to do on our own. We felt the way they justified the high cost was exaggerated and hypothetical. To enter a contract over hypothetical

I worked with NthDegree CPAs on both my business and personal taxes. Being a new business owner I wanted to ensure everything was filed correctly all while trying to save as much as possible through deductions. Nth Degree was amazing to work with. They guided me step by step, were very creative and forward thinking with savings ideas, professional and responsive. Overall a great experience and I will continue to work with them for years to come.

Have been working with Nth Degree for four years now and my only regret is that I did not find them sooner. Great to work with, I enjoy having a plan before taxes are due instead of just finding out if I owe money to the IRS or not.

I worked with Kyle Boggins after receiving a letter from the IRS. He was able to assist quickly. I was most impressed with his ability to explain and break the problem down for me, and he was able to provide me with a clear action plan to help. What a relief I felt after meeting with him! Thank you to Kyle and the rest of the team at Nth Degree.

Nth Degree CPAs HAS to be one of the few organizations that actually lives up to its name sake! I have known of this organization for about 10 years and began working with them 3 years ago. The entire team is the real deal! Tremendously thankful for their character, competence, and capacity to help me both personally and professionally. Highly recommend as they are NOT your average firm.

I worked with Kyle, from Nth Degree, on an issue that was too complicated for me to do on my own. It was very mathematical and I needed to understand the implications it would have on my livelihood. Being new to a situation such as this, I was quite confused when I reached out to Nth Degree CPAs. Kyle was bright, and clearly understood my issue. Kyle was friendly, energetic and to the point. He said he'd work on it and get back to me at a specific time. He kept his word. Kyle called me and emailed me the information I needed. Because of Kyle's efficiency and expertise, I was able to make

We've had a great experience working with the awesome team at Nth Degree. Our family has several businesses in Tacoma, and their team was extremely thorough reviewing all of our financials and creating a customized plan for the future. Having an accountant who thinks strategically and really understands our goals has been a game-changer!

Kyle was of great help!

I had a complex question and when I called, the receptionist patiently listened to my chaotic explanation, helped me decipher and organize what I was trying to ask, then set me up with a free consultation! The next day, Kyle called me and gave great advice for my inquiry! He was well informed from what I told his secretary, so I didn't have to explain everything all over again, and very polite. When I consider starting my business in the future, Nth Degree is who i'm calling.

They are the third (and final) CPA firm for our company. They should have been our second and final firm, but another firm oversold and underdelivered. These guys undersold and overdelivered. Only recommendation I have is to oversell and overdeliver because they can pull it off. They brought back tens of thousands of dollars into our company. In the past getting an email from our CPA was like getting an email from the IRS' little brother. More work, more money, little return. I can't believe I enjoy getting and reading an email from a CPA. Everyone at this company has rock star status

I found these guys on Yelp. I gave them a call and was passed along to Dan. I was starting up a business and confused about which forms and what type of business I should declare. He helped me out over the phone and made everything a lot more clear.

About two months later, after I had everything set up, I gave him another call to ask about filling Washington city and state tax returns. He advised me how to do so (most of my business is out of state) and told me how to write off my deductions over the phone. In February I will be going back to Dan to help me file my 1040. Dan has helped

Jayson left the company and he was the one handling my taxes. Well no one told me and in March I finally e-mailed Dan to find out why I hadn't heard anything yet. Keep in mind I sent all my paperwork in January. Well Dan explained the situation and apologized for the delay. My tax forms were filed within a week.

I'm giving them four stars because it was a mistake and they fixed it quickly. They should have given me a discount but I'm letting that one go. I'll see how they do this year and update my review accordingly. I plan on turning in my paperwork early again, and hope

Everyone here was really helpful and friendly. I haven't actually used them but got an estimate from them on some tax work I had. Like I said Dan was extremely friendly and seemed like he would be a pleasure to work with.

My only issue was the pricing they had. They said they meet with their clients twice a year but their prices for a tax return was 4 times as high as any other accountant I had talked to (I talked to a lot getting estimates). I will say that Dan did offer to do my ammended return for free to get my business but even with that it was too expensive to take on.

EDIT: I

I left a previous long standing accounting relationship because of the level of comfort and customer service I experienced just in my first couple contacts with Dan.

I love the location in Pioneer Square, it is easy to get to and the building is a Seattle classic.

Dan Nicholson is setting a new standard for the CPA's in Seattle. His approach to accounting and client service is above and beyond what I have come to expect from the industry. He works hard to integrate a client's understanding of their finances with their business goals, and I've learned a tremendous amount from him.

I'd recommend his services to any small or new business that wants to get off on the right foot with all their accounting needs.

Not your typical CPA. They go above and beyond. Their approach is to look at the entire business, not just taxes. Their background is vast and the breadth of the services they can provide is astonishing. Any one can fill out a 1040, but Nth Degree can provide businesses with the support necessary to truly manage it's finances.
