Your Payout Is Not Your Revenue. We Make the Numbers Tell the Truth.
Accounting for Shopify, Amazon, Etsy, wholesale and multi-channel Canadian sellers.
The problem
Platform payouts are net of a dozen fees, so your revenue never matches your bank.
Gross sales, refunds, platform fees, ad spend, shipping and sales tax all land in one deposit. We unbundle it so you can see contribution margin by channel and product.
What we cover
- • Shopify and Amazon payout reconciliation
- • Cost of goods sold and landed cost
- • Inventory accounting
- • Merchant and platform fees
- • Ad spend tracking by channel
- • GST/HST and provincial sales tax
- • US and cross-border sales tax awareness
- • Returns and chargebacks
- • Corporate tax and instalments
- • Cash flow planning around inventory buys
Problems we solve
Where the money is usually leaking
You don't know your true margin
We calculate contribution after fees, shipping, returns and ad spend so you know which SKUs and channels actually pay.
Sales tax across provinces
Registration thresholds and rates differ. We set your platform tax settings and filing calendar correctly.
Inventory ties up all your cash
We forecast cash against reorder cycles so growth doesn't run you dry.

FAQ
E-commerce & Amazon/Shopify: your questions
How much will this cost?
Monthly accounting starts from $299/month and is priced on transaction volume, payroll, entities and complexity. Use the instant pricing calculator for an indicative range, then we confirm an exact fixed price after a short review.
Do you connect to Shopify and Amazon directly?
Yes, through your accounting platform's integrations, with monthly reconciliation to actual payouts.
Can you take over from my current accountant?
Yes. We handle the transition, request prior-year files and CRA access, review what was filed, and flag anything that needs to be corrected before we take over your filings.
Do you provide audits?
No. The Accounting Doc does not provide audit or assurance engagements. We focus on accounting, bookkeeping, tax, compliance, business registration, reporting and advisory services within the scope of our professional services.
