A Denver Bookkeeper That Knows Colorado Business
Running a business in Denver comes with its own bookkeeping challenges. Colorado is a home-rule state, so Denver and many nearby cities collect their own sales tax on top of the state rate. Employers deal with Denver's Occupational Privilege Tax. And fast-growing companies along the Front Range often outgrow spreadsheets and DIY QuickBooks long before they hire a full-time accountant.
Our Denver bookkeeping team handles all of it. We connect to QuickBooks Online or Xero, categorize every transaction, reconcile every bank and credit card account, and send monthly reports that show exactly where your business stands. Not sure what that covers? Here is what a bookkeeper actually does.
TimberWolf Analytics is based in Denver, Colorado. We meet Denver clients by video or in person, and support businesses across the U.S. remotely.

Colorado & Denver Sales Tax
The Colorado state rate is 2.9%. Denver adds its own city sales tax, plus RTD and Cultural Facilities District taxes, for a combined rate of about 8.81% in the city. We record sales tax by jurisdiction so every return ties to your books.
Colorado Department of Revenue →Home-Rule City Filings
Denver, Aurora, Boulder, Lakewood and other home-rule cities collect their own sales tax. If you sell across the metro, you may file with more than one city. We keep those sales separated in your books.
City and County of Denver →Denver Occupational Privilege Tax
Denver charges an Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT) on employers and on employees who work in the city above a monthly earnings threshold. We reconcile OPT withholding and payments with your payroll every month.

Do You Need a Bookkeeper or a CPA in Denver?
Most Denver businesses need both, for different jobs. A bookkeeper records and reconciles your transactions all year and produces monthly financial statements. A CPA prepares and files your tax returns and gives tax advice.
TimberWolf Analytics is not a CPA firm and does not file tax returns. We keep your books accurate all year and work alongside your Denver CPA, so they receive clean, reconciled numbers. That usually means a faster, less expensive tax return.
