Guided intake, clear calculations, and human review. Technology where it helps. A CPA reviews every reasonable compensation report where professional judgment matters. Reports are delivered within three business days.

IRS-defensible process

From intake to audit-ready compensation memo in three clear steps.

Every engagement is designed to collect the facts a CPA needs, document the reasoning, and produce support that can stand up to IRS scrutiny.

  1. Select your day-to-day tasks

    After confirming your ZIP-based wage area and weekly hours, select the specific tasks that make up your day-to-day business operations so the analysis reflects the work you actually perform.

  2. CPA review and follow-up

    A CPA reviews the report and follows up with any applicable notes or action items needed to finalize it.

  3. 03 / Final deliverable

    Receive an IRS-defensible memo

    Once any applicable notes or action items are resolved, the CPA finalizes a compensation memo based on IRS reasonable-compensation guidelines.

Individual report pricing

One clear price: $299 per report

Competitor reasonable-compensation studies can quickly become expensive, especially when every entity, owner, or revision adds another fee. Compensation Reports keeps the engagement simple with a flat $299 price for each report.

  • Predictable per-report pricing before you begin.
  • CPA-reviewed before delivery so obvious errors are caught by a professional, not left to automation.
  • Zipcode level wage adjustments instead of broad country-only adjustments.
  • No inflated study package required just to document reasonable compensation.
  • Built for advisors and business owners who need defensible support without overpaying.

Why switch from RC Reports

The same core outcomes, with human review and more precise geography.

Both options aim to document reasonable compensation, but Compensation Reports adds CPA review and narrower geography so the final memo is easier to defend and easier to trust.
