Our Services
Financial Statement Audits
From evaluation of risk and internal control, to testing and examination procedures, a financial statement audit delivers the highest level of financial statement services resulting in an auditors’ report stating their opinion based on reasonable assurance.
Financial Statement Reviews
Financial statement reviews offer valuable insights and recommendations in a timely fashion. This service involves more communication with management and less testing and examination. The resulting accountants’ report provides limited assurance on the financial statements.
.
Financial Statement Compilations
A financial statement compilation ensures your financial statements can be presented with confidence, in a way that is representative of management or owners. Your internally prepared financial statements are compiled, with or without disclosure, depending on the level of assurance your business requires.
Agreed Upon Procedures
Agreed-upon procedures (AUP) engagements are focused, specific objectives, such as auditing inventory and reviewing cash receipts. AUP engagements may call for an independent practitioner, but they can provide a flexible, cost-effective alternative to a full financial statement service.
