2 Monetary Policy and Long-Term Economic Growth. In examining the effects of monetary policy on economic activity and growth, it is useful, both for conceptual and for policy reasons, to distinguish between long-term and short-term effects or, alternatively, between permanent and transitory effects.
As of 2015, the median wage for an entry-level bookkeeper is $14 per hour. However, the yearly salary for a bookkeeper varies, as some bookkeepers are eligible for bonuses or commission and others receive overtime pay. The average bookkeeper makes $37,930 per year.
The less that is outsourced, the cheaper it will be for you. A bookkeeper should be paid between $15 and $18 per hour. An accountant with a undergraduate degree (4-years) should be paid somewhere around $20/hour but that still depends on what you're having them do. An accountant with a graduate degree (masters) should be paid between $25 and $30 per hour.
