Auditing

If you are a limited company and your turnover or Balance sheet is greater than the set limits or the bank or shareholders insist, then you require an Audit.

Audit

When do you require an Audit?
Many accountancy firms present Audits as an “added value” service. But let’s be honest – you often need an audit because you have no choice!
If you are a limited company and your turnover or Balance sheet is greater than the set limits, or the bank or shareholders insist, then you require an Audit. There could also be various other reasons where you require your accounts to be audited.
Useful Information
As auditors, it is our job to help you meet the current statutory audit requirements, but we also take the opportunity to ask our accounting team to conduct a review of your financial and management systems. This review can often result in our audit identifying potential problem areas and recommending opportunities to improve your business performance. We will always discuss and communicate our findings with you and our auditors will discuss with you any opportunities that might exist to help you implement any agreed solutions.
Fees
Like all our other services, we operate on a fully fixed-fee basis.
