Services We Offer:
UNDERSTANDING THE INITIAL AND ONE TIME COSTS FOR START-UP FRANCHISES
Starting a franchise in New Jersey involves several up-front expenses, and Presti & Naegele is here to help you navigate them. Rather than building a business from the ground up, franchising offers a pre-built framework—brand, training, and systems—from the franchisor.
Franchise fees paid up front are considered intangible assets and cannot be deducted in full right away. Instead, they’re amortized evenly over a 15-year period for tax purposes.
Additional costs—like inventory, equipment, furnishings, and franchisor training—should be carefully structured. We help New Jersey franchise owners maximize deductions and manage these costs efficiently from the start.
ROYALTY AND ADVERTISING FEES
Franchisees across New Jersey trust P&N to help them understand and manage recurring royalty and advertising fees, which are vital parts of participating in a successful franchise model.
✔ Royalty Fees – Paid monthly based on your gross revenue, these fees give you continued access to the franchisor’s tools, branding, and operational support. Most franchise royalty fees fall between 4% and 12%.
✔ Advertising Fees – These payments go toward national or regional marketing campaigns. For New Jersey franchise owners, these efforts help build recognition in both local neighborhoods and high-traffic areas. For example, a 2% fee on $25,000 in revenue equals $500 per month or $6,000 annually.
STATE FRANCHISE TAX
Franchise tax obligations in New Jersey are specific to the state and may vary from those in other regions. From how taxes are calculated to what exemptions may apply, it's important to understand your obligations clearly.
At P&N, we assist New Jersey franchisees in understanding and complying with local franchise tax laws so you can avoid errors and stay fully aligned with state regulations.
MAINTAINING ACCURATE RECORDS
Bookkeeping is a critical element of our accounting for franchises in New Jersey. With clean, consistent records, you gain greater insight into your business’s financial performance and remain ready for any required tax filings or internal reviews.
We help you stay on top of your income, expenses, and cash flow so you can run your New Jersey franchise confidently and with control.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Accurate financial reporting depends on well-maintained records. While not all franchises require monthly statements, many franchisors expect quarterly or annual updates to assess performance and consistency across locations.
Franchise owners in New Jersey should be prepared to share these reports as outlined in their FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document). P&N helps you keep everything organized and reporting-ready when deadlines approach.
