Audits, Reviews and Compilations
Our audit and accounting services can help you achieve the degree of accountability you need while improving your business performance. We view our role in the financial reporting process as an opportunity to provide constructive solutions for maximizing your company's profitability and efficiency. Our primary financial statement services are briefly described below:
Write-up Services – This service includes general ledger bookkeeping, processing and preparing payroll tax returns, and maintaining accounts receivable and accounts payable ledgers. These procedures can be performed in our office or at your facility.
Compilations – This involves the input of your monthly financial data into our accounting software to produce financial statements. It is the service most commonly requested by organizations lacking extensive in-house accounting capabilities. Compiled financial statements are often prepared to satisfy lenders as well as assist owners in managing their business.
Reviews – This is the service of choice for most privately owned businesses. It involves analytical and inquiry procedures by the accountant to enable the expression of limited assurances about fairness of presentation in the financial statements.
Audits – This is the highest level of service an independent accountant performs relative to a company’s financial statements. It provides the greatest level of assurance that those statements are fairly presented. An audit involves detail testing and other procedures, such as review of a company’s internal controls, which enables the auditor to offer a range of suggestions and insights into managerial practices.
