Madsen and Company provides professional business tax preparation services for small business owners in South Jordan, Utah, focused on accurate filing, full compliance, and clear, proactive guidance.

As a Utah-based, virtual-first CPA firm with over 30 years of experience, we prepare business tax returns with careful attention to detail—while also helping you understand how today’s numbers affect future tax decisions. Our goal is not just to file your return, but to ensure your business is positioned correctly and consistently from year to year to support long-term tax planning and advisory decisions.

We prepare business tax returns for S-Corporations, partnerships, sole proprietors, and multi-entity businesses. For clients who are behind on filings, we help bring returns current and assist with IRS or state correspondence to resolve outstanding compliance issues.

While tax preparation reports what has already occurred, our process is designed to support proactive planning and better decision-making going forward—not last-minute reporting.

At Madsen and Company, tax preparation is not a standalone service — it is the implementation layer of proactive tax planning and advisory.

Led by Steve Madsen, CPA, we prepare business tax returns to ensure planning decisions made throughout the year are properly documented, compliant, and accurately reflected. Without proactive planning, many tax-saving opportunities are permanently lost after December 31.

  • S-Corporation returns (Form 1120S)

  • Filing prior-year or delinquent business tax returns

  • IRS and state notice review and response

  • Audit and correspondence support (when applicable)
