SERVICES Getting the Most from an Audit Congratulations! You're going to have an audit. Besides a few days of strangers poring through your file cabinets, followed by a pretty booklet -- what's in it for you? Look on the bright side -- it's a chance to get all those loose ends cleaned up. Adjust that pesky, everlasting $112.35 difference out of your cash balance, figure out your vacation liability once and for all, and get your staff to update their W-4s. Okay, that sounds like more work for you -- not what you'd call a plus. But while C&K can't be your friends exactly, in many ways we can be your allies -- and sometimes even a help. We can explain depreciation and provide examples of asset schedules, review your internal control and make suggestions for improvement. Beef up your arguments in favor of timesheets and check requests, bolster your insistence on supporting documentation for credit card purchases. provide feedback and models for your ideas on coding and allocation. In short -- in a sea of consultants, hired guns, bureaucrats and prima donnas -- we can offer a well-provisioned island of bean-counting sanity. |
