Plus by all accounts his fees are very reasonable. CPAs in public practice make money on their time. We aren't selling a product, so every 10-15 minutes means something to the bottom line, as crazy as that sounds. I find it hard to imagine why people get so aggravated paying a CPA an hourly fee but not a mechanic fixing their vehicle. This is just one of the reasons I'm getting out of public practice. People hate taxes and hate paying someone to prepare them.

Sounds like you're venting here. The OP was asking questions because he's simply inexperienced when it comes to dealing with these matters. When you review or re-read (if you so choose to) what he said, he went out of his way to point out that the CPA in question had given him excellent advice in regards to his business (he mentioned the cost per hour and was still pleased so it's not as if this guy is a skinflint from the info provided).

This guy is doing things the right way and he's not rushing to judgment.
