“How much does accounting restoration cost” sounds like a simple question, but no honest accountant will answer it over the phone. The reason is that one name covers two completely different jobs: tidying up three months inside a working ledger, and rebuilding four years from nothing but bank statements. Below is what makes up the fee, what affects it most and how to make the job cheaper.<\/p>\n
Four things set the price, and only the first is obvious.<\/p>\n
Records were kept, but with errors.<\/b> The ledger is intact, source documents are mostly there, the accountant posted some things wrongly or not at all. The cheapest case: the work is reconciliation and correction. Filed returns usually need no amendment, or need it for one or two periods.<\/p>\n
The accountant left and took the ledger.<\/b> The classic. Source documents are partly on paper, partly with counterparties, the ledger is gone. Here the rebuild starts from the bank statements: cash movement first, then documents attached to it. Roughly twice the first scenario.<\/p>\n
There were no records at all.<\/b> The company ran on a calculator and filed returns approximately. The most expensive case, because restoration almost always comes with amended returns and with handling the consequences.<\/p>\nHow long it takes<\/h2>\n
The timeline matters more than the fee when there is an external deadline: an inspection, a loan, a sale of the company or a donor requirement. Rough guides: a quarter inside a healthy ledger takes a few working days. A year rebuilt from statements takes three to six weeks. Three years from nothing rarely takes less than two months, and the only way to speed that up is more people, not more willingness.<\/p>\n
The biggest factor in the timeline is not our speed but yours in producing documents. Half of all restorations stall not on the accounting but on counterparty certificates that take weeks to arrive.<\/p>\n
Some are replaced by duplicates from counterparties, some by reconciliation statements, some by accounting memoranda. Whatever cannot be restored goes into a separate list: you need to know which costs have no support and what the exposure is. There is no point hiding that list, because an inspection will find the same items.<\/p>\n
First we look at the volume: statements for the period, balances in the ledger, the list of returns already filed. That is free and takes one business day. Then we send a written proposal with a fixed amount per stage and a timeline. If the volume turns out larger than it first looked, we stop and re-agree rather than present you with a bill at the end.<\/p>\n
The service itself is described on our page about accounting restoration<\/a>. If you also want an outside view of the tax exposure afterwards, that is a tax audit<\/a>, usually done immediately after, while all the documents are already in one place.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The four components of the fee, three typical scenarios, realistic timelines and what makes it cheaper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[97],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audyt-biznesu"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\n","aioseo_head_json":{"title":"MK Audit \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","description":"The four components of the fee, three typical scenarios, realistic timelines and what makes it cheaper. \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","canonical_url":"https:\/\/audit-mk.com.ua\/en\/skilky-koshtuie-vidnovlennia-obliku\/","robots":"max-image-preview:large","keywords":"","webmasterTools":{"miscellaneous":""},"schema":null,"og:locale":"en_US","og:site_name":"MK Audit","og:type":"article","og:title":"MK Audit \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","og:description":"The four components of the fee, three typical scenarios, realistic timelines and what makes it cheaper. \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","og:url":"https:\/\/audit-mk.com.ua\/en\/skilky-koshtuie-vidnovlennia-obliku\/","article:published_time":"2026-09-14T21:19:32+00:00","article:modified_time":"2026-09-14T21:19:32+00:00","og:image":"https:\/\/audit-mk.com.ua\/wp-content\/plugins\/mk-landing\/img\/og-default.jpg","og:image:width":1200,"og:image:height":630,"og:image:secure_url":"https:\/\/audit-mk.com.ua\/wp-content\/plugins\/mk-landing\/img\/og-default.jpg","twitter:card":"summary_large_image","twitter:title":"MK Audit \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","twitter:description":"The four components of the fee, three typical scenarios, realistic timelines and what makes it cheaper. \u0430\u0443\u0434\u0438\u0442","twitter:image":"https:\/\/audit-mk.com.ua\/wp-content\/plugins\/mk-landing\/img\/og-default.jpg"},"aioseo_meta_data":{"post_id":"4233","title":null,"description":null,"keywords":null,"keyphrases":null,"primary_term":null,"canonical_url":null,"og_title":null,"og_description":null,"og_object_type":"default","og_image_type":"default","og_image_url":null,"og_image_width":null,"og_image_height":null,"og_image_custom_url":null,"og_image_custom_fields":null,"og_video":null,"og_custom_url":null,"og_article_section":null,"og_article_tags":null,"twitter_use_og":false,"twitter_card":"default","twitter_image_type":"default","twitter_image_url":null,"twitter_image_custom_url":null,"twitter_image_custom_fields":null,"twitter_title":null,"twitter_description":null,"schema":{"blockGraphs":[],"customGraphs":[],"default":{"data":{"Article":[],"Course":[],"Dataset":[],"FAQPage":[],"Movie":[],"Person":[],"Product":[],"ProductReview":[],"Car":[],"Recipe":[],"Service":[],"SoftwareApplication":[],"WebPage":[]},"graphName":"BlogPosting","isEnabled":true},"graphs":[]},"schema_type":"default","schema_type_options":null,"pillar_content":false,"robots_default":true,"robots_noindex":false,"robots_noarchive":false,"robots_nosnippet":false,"robots_nofollow":false,"robots_noimageindex":false,"robots_noodp":false,"robots_notranslate":false,"robots_max_snippet":null,"robots_max_videopreview":null,"robots_max_imagepreview":"large","priority":null,"frequency":null,"local_seo":null,"breadcrumb_settings":null,"limit_modified_date":false,"ai":null,"created":"2026-09-14 21:19:53","updated":"2026-09-14 21:19:54","seo_analyzer_scan_date":null,"focus_keyword":null,"additional_keywords":null,"truseo_locale":null},"aioseo_breadcrumb":"
