Stuart Wilson, ACMA CGMA Fractional CFO & Controller · AICPA Member
Nashville is no longer just Music City — it's a healthcare capital, a tech hub, and one of America's fastest-growing metros. But Tennessee's franchise and excise tax system, multi-location hospitality accounting, and healthcare revenue-cycle complexity demand finance leadership that goes beyond bookkeeping. Management accounts by the 5th, cash-flow forecasts weekly, and compliance handled — by a CGMA with 24 years in professional finance.

Nashville is home to HCA, Community Health Systems, and hundreds of healthcare companies. Multi-provider P&L, insurance reimbursement tracking, contractual adjustments, and practice-level profitability require specialized accounting that generic bookkeepers can't deliver. A fractional CFO builds the reporting infrastructure healthcare operators need to manage margins in a reimbursement-driven industry.
Nashville's music industry generates billions in royalties, publishing income, and touring revenue. Royalty-split accounting, performance-rights tracking, advance recoupment schedules, and multi-entity structures for artist-owned businesses require a CFO who understands the economics of intellectual property.
Nashville's hospitality boom — hotels, restaurants, event venues — means multi-location P&L, tip-credit compliance, food-cost analysis, and RevPAR tracking across properties. We consolidate financial reporting across locations so owners see the full picture, not just individual stores.
Tennessee imposes both a franchise tax (0.25% of net worth or real/tangible property) and a 6.5% excise tax on net earnings. The dual-tax structure requires careful planning — especially for pass-through entities that may be subject to the new SALT workaround elections. We model both taxes quarterly to minimize your total state tax burden.

Tennessee imposes two business-level taxes: a franchise tax at 0.25% of the greater of net worth or real/tangible property in Tennessee, and an excise tax at 6.5% of net earnings. We model both taxes quarterly and coordinate with your CPA to ensure you're using available deductions — including the net-operating-loss carryforward for excise tax and the SALT cap workaround for pass-through entities.
Yes. We track insurance reimbursements, contractual adjustments, and patient-responsibility revenue at the provider level. We also produce multi-location profitability reports so you can see which practices or service lines are driving margin — and which are dragging it down.
Absolutely. We set up royalty-split tracking, reconcile performance-rights income (ASCAP, BMI, SESAC), manage advance recoupment schedules, and produce clear financial reports for artists, songwriters, and publishers. Multi-entity structures for artist-owned businesses are common and something we handle routinely.
