Often times, an audit may not be necessary. Depending on the needs of your financial statement users, we also provide review and compilation services.

 

Our reviews typically involve inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data.  Its scope is significantly less than that of an audit, and it does not provide a basis for the expression of an opinion on an organization’s financial statements.

 

Our compilations are substantially less in scope than a review or an audit of an organization’s financial information.  The objective of a compilation is to present financial statements that are the representation of management without the expression of an opinion or provide any assurance.
