That seems outrageous to me. And my ex was a CPA and got certified with the IRS as a paid tax preparer for a side business where she filed taxes for personal friends and acquaintances. I know what goes into them even when a business is involved - it's not rocket science. Typically she charged $75-150 for a tax return and spent maybe an hour or two on the entire process.

Currently, my accountant bills $300 for my taxes, although they never charge me. I perform basic IT services for them in exchange.
