Franklin Accounting • Nashville Business Management

From Franklin's back office to Nashville's biggest decisions, every number under control.

Humphres & Associates combines bookkeeping, payroll, internal controls, tax strategy, and hands-on business management for owner-led companies and entertainment professionals who need more than year-end answers.

Certified Public Accountants · Established 1983 · Cool Springs, Franklin TN

A stronger operation starts before tax season

Accurate books are the beginning, not the deliverable.

Most firms hand back a return and a set of statements. That answers what already happened. It does not tell you whether payroll is exposed, whether one person has too much control over cash, or whether the margin you think you have is real.

We help clients establish dependable reporting, stronger internal controls, efficient financial processes, and proactive tax planning — so the business runs with fewer surprises and decisions get made on current information.

Founded in 1983, Humphres & Associates works either on-site at your location or from our Franklin office, giving each client as much or as little support as the situation requires.

Two ways we help

Tell us who you are and we will show you the relevant half of the firm.

Your back office, run like a department instead of an afterthought.

You did not start the company to reconcile the bank account. We take the accounting function, payroll, and controls off your desk and give you reporting you can actually run the business from.

What we usually find

  • Books that arrive too late to inform a decision
  • Payroll and tax deposits handled by whoever has time
  • No separation of duties and no written procedures
  • Tax conversations that only happen in March

How we handle it

  • Bookkeeping & reconciliations
  • Payroll & payroll tax filings
  • QuickBooks setup, cleanup & training
  • Financial reporting & KPI tracking
  • Internal controls & procedures
  • Business planning & consulting
  • Year-round tax strategy
