Solar Books Main Services
🔷 Job Costing & WIP (Work-in-Progress) Tracking
Track the financials of each solar installation project individually, from materials and labor to subcontractor expenses and overhead. Helps business owners see which jobs are profitable, which are over budget, and where costs are leaking.
🔷 ITC and Energy Credit Tracking
Monitor and document the usage of federal and state solar incentives like the Investment Tax Credit (ITC). Ensure proper categorization, amortization, and support documentation for tax filings and potential audits.
🔷 Payroll & Subcontractor Payments
Set up payroll systems tailored to project-based workers and field crews. Handle tax filings, workers' comp tracking, and 1099 payments for subcontractors — all common in solar installation businesses.
🔷 Financial Reporting by Project
Generate profit & loss reports by job or installation site. This gives business owners insight into real-time margins and cash flow per project, helping them scale efficiently and avoid hidden losses.
🔷 Budgeting for Growth or New Markets
Create financial models and forecasts for expansion, whether opening in a new region or adding battery storage services. Helps owners understand capital needs and confidently plan for growth.
🔷 Advisory on Pricing & Profitability
Help business owners analyze their pricing models to ensure they’re competitive and profitable. This includes reviewing markup strategies, breakeven points, and ROI per installation type.
