Our audit and assurance services include:

Audits

In examining financial statements, we observe certain assets, verify certain transactions and balances with third parties, sample transactions, test support and revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and other procedures as necessary.  An audit provides the highest degree of assurance that we can provide, that the financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Audited financial statements are generally required for businesses with certain sales or asset totals, to support large real estate mortgage needs and for challenged credit applications. An audit may also be requested by business owners and non-profit organization boards in order to provide information to help the entity to govern and operate effectively and efficiently.

Review

In a review engagement, we make inquiries and perform analytical procedures designed to identify unusual items or trends that may require explanation by your Organization’s management.  Essentially, the review is designed to determine whether the financial statements make sense without applying audit-like procedures.  A review provides limited assurance that no material changes should be made to the financial statements.

Reviewed financial statements normally satisfy lenders for long-term banking/lending relationships and for smaller mortgage requirements.  Because a review cost substantially less than an audit to perform, you should ask your lender if a review would satisfy their requirements.

Compilation

In a compilation, we present, in the form of financial statements, the financial information provided by your management, in appropriate form and free from obvious material errors.  A compilation provides no opinion or any assurance on the financial statements.

Compilation reports are appropriate for interim (monthly, quarterly) reporting and for annual reporting for organizations that do not require an audit or review.

Evaluation of Internal Controls

We assess your organizations financial processes and procedures to determine their effectiveness whether you have the appropriate safeguards in place to protect your assets, prevent fraudulent activity or erroneous financial reporting.  We report on our observations and provide our recommendations for improvement.
