Audit and Assurance Services
Stockholders, creditors, and private investors often need assurance that the financial statements accurately represent the true financial position of a company.
Our clients can rely on us to thoroughly evaluate the credibility of financial information, and also to carefully examine the processes whereby that information is collected and recorded. We also evaluate critical data needed for our clients to make informed business decisions. Our audit and assurance services provide Audit Services for privately held companies, non-profit organization and governmental entities. We also provide Compilation and Review services for many different types of organizations.
Audit Services
Lenders, investors, bonding companies, government agencies and others often rely on qualified CPA’s to provide an independent opinion on the financial statements of a company or non-profit organization as a means of gaining assurance that the financial information meets accounting standards. This is done through a process called an audit.
In an audit CPA’s evaluate the organization’s accounting system and internal controls, gather and examine evidence that support the financial statements, make inquiries of management and outside parties, and analyze the financial data that management provides. The goal of this process is to reach a conclusion whether the financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This conclusion is documented in the independent auditor’s report.
Compilation Services
A compilation is an engagement in which we draft financial statements for your company or organization based on information that you provide. We do not audit or review the data nor provide any sort of assurance on it that may be relied upon by outside parties. Compilations are appropriate for smaller organizations that want or need formal financial statements for reporting to interested outside parties or internal users of financial information, such as a board of directors.
Review Services
A review is an engagement in which we can provide limited assurance on the financial statements by performing inquiries and analysis on the statements. At the conclusion of a review engagement we issue a review report. A review engagement is appropriate where outside users, such as lenders or bonding companies, require a higher level of scrutiny and some assurance not provided in a compilation.
Whether it is an audit, review or compilation, financial statement reporting can enhance the value of your business particularly if you are borrowing money, looking for investors, working with bonding or you are trying to sell your business. CPA prepared financial statements allow you to provide better information to outside users, allowing them to better assess their risks, potentially leading to lower financing and bonding costs and a higher sales value for your business.
