Accountants are afraid of being sued, of loosing their license, of liability, of the IRS.
Any tax advantage that you might rightfully be entitled to will have to be discovered by YOU and only after overcome all of the above fears will you manage to talk your accountant into using any of them.
They are not the least bit creative, they belittle you for 'not maintaining your books properly'...
For who? For them, you're paying them, or for the IRS?
Ask an accountant 'anything'... ANYTHING that in any way will save you money... and you will only hear one word... NO... you can't do that...
OK and I hired you why... the IRS will do your taxes for free... REALLY, they will...
A good accountant will meet with you at least once a year and talk about where you have been and where you want to be. He/she will suggest ways to save money well before year end, so you can make the smartest moves first. He/she will look over your bookkeeper's shoulder and suggest ways to improve your record keeping.
If they just plug your numbers into software you could buy yourself, no they are not worth very much. But, a smart accountant is a business adviser and is invaluable.
