LedgerstoneAccounting, tax and payroll for the Black Hills

Your taxes, done carefully and explained plainly.

For local businesses, ranch families and retirees who want an accountant who picks up the phone in July.

South Dakota has no state income tax, which makes a lot of returns simpler than people expect. The hard parts are everything else: a ranch that’s also an LLC, a side business that grew, a parent’s estate, a first year of payroll.

That’s where we spend our time. We prepare individual, farm and business returns, keep monthly books in QuickBooks and run payroll for small teams around the Hills.

We meet with every business client at least once outside tax season, so April holds no surprises. Bring a shoebox if you must, but most clients now upload from their phone.

Drop it in. We’ll file it.

No more tax forms in email. Upload photos, PDFs or spreadsheets with whatever names they came with. Each one is read, labeled and filed under the right client and year, and you see what we still need.
