Financial Statement Audit Process
Audits are intended to provide creditors, investors, federal and state agencies, and other outside parties with a high level of comfort on the accuracy of your financial statements. Business leaders engage in audit services to identify material weaknesses and set the stage for discussions, insights, observations and guidance for their resolution.
Audit and attestation services are appropriate and often required when meeting governmental regulations, seeking high levels of financing or outside investors, or when selling a business.
As your CPA firm, we issue a formal report that expresses an opinion on whether the financial statements are presented fairly, in all material aspects, in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework.
Reviews are intended to provide lenders and other outside parties with a basic level of assurance on the accuracy of your financial statements.
As a business grows and is seeking larger and more complex levels of financing and credit, review services are often appropriate.
As your CPA firm, we issue a review report as part of the engagement.
Compilations are used by lenders and other outside parties who may not require assurance on the accuracy of financial statements.
When initial or lower amounts of financing or credit are sought or significant collateral is in place, compilation services are often appropriate.
As your CPA firm, we issue a compilation report as part of the engagement.
