Good morning DonH44 and welcome to Just Answer!

The average pay rate in the Wellfleet, MA 02667 area for an average bookkeeper is roughly $38,000. The bottom 25% of bookkeepers in this area are making between $28,000 and $33,000 and the top 75% are between $43,000 and $48,000.

Thus if your bookkeeper is limited and can not perform all tasks necessary and is a little newer to the business, I would think that a reasonable salary would be anywhere from 20k to 30k per year, based on working full time and how much they actually are capable of doing(also based on what you can comfortably afford to pay him/her). Here is a link to a site we use quite often that provides some very useful information about job salaries. This is a service we use in the mortgage industry quite often to see if a salary listed is consistent with the salaries in the area to help lower the risk of fraud.
