Compare Plante Moran fees with AE’s scope
AE Tax Advisors provides tax planning for business owners and real estate investors. Standard advisory is $7,800 and complex advisory is $9,800. Returns, amendments, cost segregation and additional work are separately scoped and priced.
The standard advisory engagement has no required annual planning renewal. Confirm the support period, implementation assignments and exclusions in the written agreement; future work can require a new engagement.
Compare the complete engagement rather than subtracting a planning-only fee from a broader compliance and accounting proposal.
A fee comparison using your records
A business owner preparing an acquisition while considering a future exit and personal tax changes.
Build two complete quotes for that same situation. Do not subtract a planning-only price from a package that includes different work. Identify first-year charges, required companion services, optional work, renewal choices and the date by which notice must be given. Lower cost alone does not establish a better fit or a larger tax benefit.
Ask for a proposal you can compare
- Who connects acquisition tax diligence with owner and exit planning?
- Which planning decisions and deliverables are included?
- Who implements advice and files each affected return?
- What changes, recurring charges or specialty projects require extra fees?
Give shortlisted firms the same entity list, current financials, prior returns, property schedule and next decision date. Request a written work plan identifying each deliverable, assigned professional, client dependency, implementation deadline and separately billed service. Send sensitive records through the firm’s secure intake process.
