RN Canada gives Edmonton, Alberta founders and owner-managers a part-time CFO and management accountant on a fractional basis: board-level financial leadership without a full-time executive salary. You get the cash-flow discipline, forecasting and investor-ready reporting a finance chief brings, scaled to a few days a month and priced for a growing business.
What a part-time CFO delivers for Edmonton businesses
Most Edmonton companies reach a point where the bookkeeping is handled but nobody owns the numbers that drive decisions. That is the gap we fill. A typical engagement covers 13-week cash-flow and runway planning, a rolling budget and forecast, monthly management accounts you can actually act on, and the board and investor reporting that lenders and shareholders expect. When you are raising debt or equity, we build the model, pressure-test the assumptions and sit in the room for the hard questions. When you are not, we keep margins, pricing and working capital under control so the next decision is made on evidence rather than instinct.
Edmonton and the 2026 Alberta tax picture
Alberta keeps the lightest tax load of any Canadian province, which shapes how we plan for Edmonton owners. There is no provincial sales tax (only the 5% federal GST applies) and no provincial payroll or employer health tax, so the cost of adding staff is lower than in BC or Ontario. Alberta corporate income tax runs at 2% on the first $500,000 of active business income that qualifies for the small-business deduction and 8% on general income above it — combined with the federal rate, an eligible small business pays about 11% and a general-rate company about 23%. The flip side is that revenue is concentrated in income tax, so clean books and a defensible small-business-deduction position matter more, not less.
Local and remote: how we work with Edmonton
We serve Edmonton businesses directly from our Edmonton office at 10804 181 St NW #201, Edmonton, AB T5S 1K4. You get a local partner who knows Alberta filing deadlines and the CRA Prairie tax services office first-hand.
Whether the work is on-site or remote, the engagement is the same: a single partner who stays close to your business, knows your numbers and answers the phone. We deliberately keep engagements small so the person who builds your forecast is the person who explains it to your board.
Built on clean books
A forecast is only as good as the ledger underneath it. Our part-time CFO work pairs naturally with our finance and advisory resources and, where you need it, full-cycle bookkeeping and tax filing. If you already have a bookkeeper, we work alongside them; if you do not, we can own the whole stack.
RN Canada was founded in 2020 by Ozgur Duymaz, a CPA (Canada), ACCA (UK) and CMA (US) with a Ph.D. in accounting and finance, and serves businesses across Alberta and British Columbia. To see whether a fractional CFO fits Edmonton, book an intro call with a partner.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. We serve Edmonton from our local Alberta office at 10804 181 St NW #201, Edmonton, AB T5S 1K4, so you have a partner who knows the local filing landscape.
A fractional CFO is priced for a few days of senior finance work a month rather than a full-time executive salary, so the cost scales with how much support you need. We scope each engagement after an intro call; there are no fixed published packages because the right level of involvement differs by business.
Alberta has no PST and no provincial payroll or health tax, and corporate income tax is 2% on small-business income and 8% on general income. Planning focuses on protecting the small-business deduction and managing income tax timing.
