Bookkeeping & Accounting for Manhattan
M&H Accounting Services is based in the Bronx, but Manhattan is where our founder built her career. Poly studied accounting at Baruch College, worked bookkeeping roles across the city, and continues to work in Midtown today. We provide Bronx bookkeeping services to businesses across all five boroughs, and Manhattan is a big part of that.
We handle monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work, and invoicing for small businesses throughout the borough. Flat monthly rates, clean financial records, and someone who actually picks up the phone when you have a question about your numbers.
Full-Service Bookkeeping
Full-Service Bookkeeping
Full-service bookkeeping that keeps your records current every month. Transactions categorized, bank and credit card accounts reconciled, P&L and balance sheet delivered. You stop spending your nights in QuickBooks trying to figure out where you stand.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Books that have fallen behind are more common than you’d think, especially in Manhattan where there’s always something more pressing than updating the ledger. We clean up months or years of backlog and get you current so your CPA has what they need.
Payroll

We run payroll, handle tax deposits, file quarterly reports, and produce W-2s at year end. Your team gets paid on time, New York withholdings are handled correctly, and you stop worrying about compliance deadlines.
Invoicing & Bill Payment
Invoicing & Bill Payment
Customer invoices sent and tracked, vendor bills paid on schedule. We manage both sides of your cash flow so nothing slips through while you’re focused on running the business.
Manhattan Businesses We Work With
Manhattan packs tens of thousands of small businesses into 23 square miles. Restaurants in the East Village, salons in Washington Heights, cleaning companies with contracts across Midtown, professional firms working out of shared offices in Chelsea. Most of them don’t have an in-house accountant. They have an owner wearing too many hats, and the financial side is usually the first thing that falls behind.
We work with businesses doing anywhere from $50K to a few million in annual revenue. Different industries, different neighborhoods, same need for accurate books and a bookkeeper who communicates clearly and follows through.
Restaurants & Food Service
Restaurants & Food Service
Manhattan’s restaurant industry is enormous and unforgiving. Tight margins, tipped payroll, NYC sales tax, daily reconciliation. We handle the restaurant bookkeeping that keeps you focused on the kitchen instead of the spreadsheet.
Salons & Barbershops
Salons & Barbershops
Hair salons, barbershops, nail salons, and spas across the borough. Cash-heavy transactions, booth rental structures, tip reporting, and product inventory. We sort through all of it and keep your books organized for tax time.
Professional Services
Professional Services
Consultants, agencies, freelancers, and small firms. Manhattan is full of people billing clients and losing track of what they’re spending. We keep your income and expenses straight so you actually know what you’re taking home.
Cleaning & Building Services

Commercial cleaning crews, janitorial companies, and property maintenance firms working Manhattan buildings. We handle payroll for crews, track contract revenue, and keep records organized for clients who require financial documentation from their vendors.
Frequently Asked Questions
You're based in the Bronx. Do you work with Manhattan businesses?

Starting at $199 per month. Your rate depends on monthly expense volume. We quote a flat price after a short conversation about your business.
Can we meet in person?

What if my books are months behind?
That's how most of our clients start. We clean up the backlog, get your books current, and then move into monthly service so it stays that way.
