Accounting Benchmarks

An experienced CPA will recommend benchmarks in a solid accounting strategy for your business. Ideally, internally prepared financial statements should be available to management by the shortly after closing the month giving management the ability to react to changes that have recently occurred.

Business owners can outsource accounting to a CPA or have an internal employee, like an unlicensed book keeper, provide theses accounting functions. You can have confidence placing trusting this responsibility to us.

Accountants can be split into two categories: tax preparers, tax preparers who can give strong business advice in their field of expertise related to running your business. A tax prepare may be all your company needs; however, they may not understand how a banker uses your financial statements, nor might they understand how to advice you on restructuring your debt or making changes to your financial structure that will benefit you. The second category of CPAs may prove very hard to find.

The best way to find a CPA whose skills and business styles match yours is to ask your other trusted advisors who they might recommend. Make a list of what kind of service you believe you want from your accountant and discuss it with your attorney, banker, and real estate professional. Explain to them that you are looking for the kind of accountant who could act as an hourly paid CFO.
