Analysis
In both personal and business finance analysis can be very helpful. Bowen Accounting & Tax can help you determine what your income/debt/expense ratio's are, analze the returns on your investments,
and help you find the weak-points in your financials. Analysis is a very large field, and there are a few specific types that we have spent a lot of time doing.
- Real estate investment analysis - We can review your financials to ensure that items have been booked properly, allowing you to show the best income that your property can, while increasing the book value of your property and stepping up its basis for tax purposes.
- Business Valuation - We can compile information on your business to help you arrive at a value for sale.
- Financing payoff analysis - A lot of money can be saved in both the personal and business fronts by reducing the amount of financing that you use. Analyzing your current liabilities and available cash allows us to tell you the best way to reduce your liabilites on anything with the most savings.
- Business efficiency analysis - All businesses experience waste. The larger they are, generally, the more waste they experience. By analyzing the financial statements and the general ledger we can help almost any business figure out where they are losing money, or where they are top heavy. Analysis' like these inevitably lead to more consulting services which are designed to help companies streamline. In economic times like these, analyzing and clearing out the waste from your company is essential.

Programming Servicess
Bowen Programming was started in late 2007, and focuses on writing web based business applications for small to mid-sized clients using PHP, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, and MySQL.
To date I have designed and programmed several apps for different clients. There are three types of programs that I regularly design and implement for clients.
- Local Applications for daily use by employees in office on local servers.
- Applications that reside on the company website with restricted access to allow employees and business owners to get updated information and reports from off-site.
- Applications that reside on the company's website to allow their clients to login, get information, signup for information, receive information and have their presence and actions on the company website tracked and logged.
