Prime Cost Is the Whole Game. We Report It Weekly.
Accounting for independent restaurants, quick service, cafés and franchisees.
The problem
Food cost and labour drift a few points and the month is gone.
Food cost plus labour is where restaurants live or die. We report prime cost against sales frequently enough for you to act on it.
What we cover
- • Weekly prime cost (food + labour) reporting
- • POS integration and daily sales
- • Supplier invoices and food cost
- • Tip and gratuity handling
- • Payroll for hourly staff
- • Franchise royalty and marketing fee reconciliation
- • HST reporting
- • Multi-location consolidation
- • Corporate tax and instalments
Problems we solve
Where the money is usually leaking
Monthly reporting is too slow
By the time a monthly P&L arrives, four bad weeks already happened. We report the drivers weekly.
Franchise reporting requirements
We produce financials in the format your franchisor expects, on their deadline.
Labour scheduling versus sales
We benchmark labour percentage by daypart so scheduling decisions have data behind them.

Restaurants & Franchises: 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.
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.
