01 Meet Abbey

Numbers are only useful when they mean something.

Abbey Shohan founded Dollars and Sense on a contrarian idea: most bookkeepers just record data - she builds your books with the tax return in mind. As a tax professional and QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor with a Master of Accountancy & Data Analytics, she pairs forensic precision with the strategy to keep more of what you earn.

That means no frantic clean-up in March, no missed deductions, and total clarity on your cash flow. From S-Corps and partnerships to sole proprietors, Abbey delivers financials you can actually rely on - for bank loans, audits, or simply scaling with confidence. Based in Phoenix, AZ and working with clients nationwide.

02 What Abbey does

Books built with the tax return in mind.

From a deep forensic clean-up to tax-ready monthly books - everything you need so your numbers are ready for the return, the bank, and the next decision.

The Deep Clean-up

Forensic bookkeeping that fixes years of unreconciled accounts, unapplied payments, and "Other Misc. Expense" mysteries - until you're current and audit-ready.

Full-Cycle Bookkeeping

Routine reconciliations, invoicing, and bill pay on a reliable monthly rhythm - books that stay accurate, organized, and up to date so you can run the business.

QuickBooks Setup & ProAdvisor

Certified ProAdvisor - Level 1, Level 2 & Payroll. From clean setups to full restructures of a chart of accounts that finally makes sense.

Payroll & 1099s

Seamless payroll processing and contractor filing - Gusto, Zoho, and more - keeping you compliant with state and federal laws.

Business & Individual Tax

Returns for 1040s, Schedule C, S-Corps, and partnerships - prepared by a tax professional who knows basis, distributions, and K-1s.

Advisory & Strategy

Proactive guidance that doesn't just report last month - it helps you plan the next quarter and make data-driven decisions with real confidence.
