Audit, Reviews, and Compilations
An audit provides the highest level of assurance for your financial scenario. The CPA's at Cambaliza McGee LLP provide a review of internal controls, testing of selected transactions, and communication with third parties. Based on our findings, we provide a report on whether the financial statements are fairly stated and free of material misstatements.
Less extensive than an audit, but more involved than a compilation, a review engagement consists primarily of analytical procedures we apply to the financial statements, as well as various inquiries we make of your company's management team. If your financial statements or supporting information appear inconsistent or otherwise questionable, our team of CPA’s may need to perform additional procedures.
A compilation provides the lowest level of assurance. When compiling financial statements for our clients, CM presents information that is the "representation of management" and expresses no opinion or assurance on the statements.
Cambaliza McGee CPA’s Provide These Types of Audits
Employee benefit plan audits are required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). These audits apply to employers with more than 100 eligible plan participants at the beginning of any plan year, and they may be required for some smaller benefit plans.
A retirement plan's sponsor is responsible for complying with these requirements and an incomplete, inadequate, or untimely audit report may result in significant penalties being assessed against the plan's sponsor. Therefore, one of the most important duties of the plan sponsor is selecting an independent auditor for the plan.
Not only do our experienced CPA’s understand the specific areas of testing required by the U.S. Department of Labor, we understand how important it is for your organization to remain compliant. We partner with you and your team to ensure your legal responsibility to file complete and accurate annual returns and reports is fulfilled.
