Audits
Audits offer the highest level of assurance to third parties, and include in-depth examination and confirmation of account balances, inventories, and selected transactions. We perform audits for you to reasses errors, ascertaining the validity and reliability of your information.
Reviews
Reviews are less in scope than an audit but provide limited assurance to outside interests and involve inquiries and analytical procedures that confirm financial statement matters and identify any items requiring further analysis.
Compilations
Compilations are usually requested for internal purposes and are based upon information provided by a company’s management. They do not offer assurance but may involve some adjustment to accounting records.
Succession & Retirement Planning
The road to retirement is a long one and we can help you to take the proper steps to reach your goals.
