Accounting Services

Accounting for Income Tax Purposes

We are experts with QuickBooks software and similar general ledger programs and can help your small business with its accounting needs for income tax purposes. Company prepared financial information is often required by outside third parties as well as internally by companies.

We assist management in presenting their financial information in the proper form.  Over the years, we have acquired an understanding of our clients' industry and to obtain specific knowledge about the client.  Additionally, we read the financial information and ensure it is free from obvious material errors.  We do not provide the expression of an opinion on financial statements which are a representation of management.

Agreed Upon Procedures

Agreed upon procedures are performed when the parties involved concur that they want the accountant to perform a specific procedure or set of procedures.  They can be useful when you or a third party wants some comfort about a specific area such as inventory or cash, but do not need the assurance and related time and expense of an audit or review. Agreed upon procedures can deal with a diverse variety of subject matter such as the quality of collateral or due diligence related to a business acquisition. In all cases, agreed upon procedures are solely the responsibility of the parties who specify them and they never provide an opinion on the subject matter or financial statements.
