Bookkeeping for people who'd rather be doing anything else

Last Minute Books makes standalone spreadsheet bookkeeping trackers for self-employed people, landlords, farms, partnerships, corporations, and nonprofits — especially anyone staring down a tax deadline with a year of bank statements and no books.

The idea is simple: you shouldn't need accounting software, a monthly subscription, or an accounting degree to get tax-ready. With our trackers you paste in your bank's export, keyword Rules categorize every transaction automatically, each category maps to the correct line on your IRS form, and every report fills itself in.

What makes our trackers different

  • No subscription. Buy once, own it forever. It's a file on your computer, not an account that bills you monthly.
  • No macros, no internet required. Plain spreadsheet formulas only — nothing to enable, nothing that phones home. Your financial data never leaves your computer.
  • Built around your actual tax form. Six product lines, each mapped to the right form: Self-Employed (Schedule C), Rental & Landlord (Schedule E), Farm & Agriculture (Schedule F), Partnership & LLC (Form 1065), Corporation (Form 1120-S / 1120), and Nonprofit (Form 990).
  • Works in what you already have. Every tracker includes both Excel (.xlsx) and LibreOffice (.ods) files, plus instructions for importing into Google Sheets.

Last Minute Books products are bookkeeping templates, not tax or legal advice, and are not affiliated with the IRS. When in doubt, talk to a tax professional — our trackers will make that conversation faster and cheaper.
