Accounting & Tax Services in Duncanville, TX
Duncanville sits at the crossroads of I-20 and US-67, just 15 minutes south of downtown Dallas. With a population of roughly 40,000, the city offers Duncanville business owners lower operating costs than neighboring Dallas while maintaining easy access to the entire DFW metroplex. SDO CPA chose Duncanville as our home base for exactly these reasons — and we understand the economics that make this community attractive to small business owners.
Along Main Street and the Cedar Ridge commercial area, local retailers, healthcare providers, and professional services firms serve both Duncanville residents and the broader Best Southwest corridor that includes DeSoto, Cedar Hill, and Lancaster. Texas franchise tax affects businesses with revenue over $2.47 million, but even smaller Duncanville businesses benefit from proactive tax planning around S-Corp elections, reasonable compensation, and retirement contribution strategies that reduce federal tax obligations.
As a Duncanville-based firm, SDO CPA provides something most virtual CPAs can’t: a local office where clients can drop off documents, have face-to-face meetings, or simply work with a CPA who understands the Best Southwest business community firsthand. We combine this local presence with cloud-based tools that let us serve you efficiently year-round.
Texas Tax Planning Tip
Texas doesn’t have a state income tax, but the Texas franchise tax (margin tax) applies to businesses with revenue above $2.47 million. S-Corp and partnership owners should analyze whether the E-Z Computation rate (0.331% of revenue) or the standard rate (0.75% of margin) produces a lower tax bill. Many Duncanville businesses overpay because they default to the E-Z rate without running both calculations.
