What is a fair price for an accountant to do my small business taxes?

Question by Kego: What is a fair price for an accountant to do my small business taxes?
I have everything in Quicken, along with all my paperwork. It shows all my utilities and bills and other things I can deduct. It’s already pretty organized. Plus my small business made under 10k last year. What would it cost to have my taxes done by a legit CPA?

I send my accountant a copy of my Quickbooks on a disk, and he charges me $ 1,600 for state and federal tax returns. I complete my own 1099′s and W-2′s, and quarterly 941′s, so the $ 1,600 is just for the two annual returns. I give myself a large bonus at the end of the years so my company usually doesn’t show any income. I think I my accountant might be a little over priced though.
