Kruze Startup Tax created a Startup Tax Pricing Calculator that allows startups to ballpark how much they can expect to pay for a tax return (Form 1120) based on a few variables:
- Industry
- Transaction Volume
- Complexity
- Fundraising Rounds
It took us years to develop and we analyzed thousands of tax returns. Here are a few general examples of Tech Startup Tax Pricing:
- No Activity / “Zero Tax Return”: $750
- Seed Stage Tech Company: $1500
- Series A Tech Company: $2000
- Series B Tech Company: $4000
- Series C Tech Company: $5000
