Areas of Service

From year-end compliance and bookkeeping through to assurance and advisory work, here is what the firm does and what is included in each engagement.

01

The complexity of financial statement preparation may seem overwhelming. We take pride in clearly explaining and presenting financial statements for all industries and professionals of all types.

Very generally speaking, most business owners have a natural aversion to bookkeeping because they prefer to focus on their craft. Give us the opportunity to help you understand that doing the books doesn't need to be boring. With our advisory partnership with Xero, the premiere online accounting software, you have access to your data anytime, anywhere, on any device.

Common questions

About our engagements

What is the difference between a compilation engagement and a review engagement?
A compilation engagement (formerly a Notice to Reader) produces financial information from data you provide, without assurance. A review engagement adds limited assurance: we perform enquiry and analytical procedures and issue a conclusion that nothing has come to our attention suggesting the statements are materially misstated. Lenders and boards often specify which one they require.
Do you prepare corporate tax returns as well as financial statements?
Yes. Year-end financial statement preparation and the T2 corporate return are normally handled together, along with any GST/PST filings, T4/T5 slips and shareholder remuneration planning for the year.
Which accounting software do you work with?
We are a Certified Xero Advisor and Partner and an Elite QuickBooks Online (QBO) ProAdvisor. We can set up, migrate, or take over books in either platform, and we design the accounting systems and internal controls around them.
Do you handle SR&ED claims?
Yes. SR&ED claims are part of our corporate tax compliance work, alongside corporate structure planning, retirement and estate compliance, and advice on incorporating your business.

Not sure which engagement you need?

Tell us what your lender, board or CRA is asking for and we will tell you which engagement fits — and what it will cost — before you commit to anything.
