Corporate and personal tax planning and filing

Financial statements are critical in giving a picture of the health of your organization or business and in making sound management decisions. They are also often used by third parties or stakeholders. As business owners, it is important to understand the needs of the users of your financial information.

 

Users can include shareholders, investors, banks, government ministries and agencies, regulators, and the general public. These users have various needs such as making lending decisions, predicting the ability of the entity to generate cash flows, determining profitability, and making financial projections. 

 

There are three types of engagements that the accounting body has established providing different levels of service to entities.

 

Compilation Engagement

Compilations, previously known as NTR's or Notice to Readers, are the most cost-effective solution for small-to-medium sized businesses and are often adequate for the users of the financial statements. The objective is to compile the financial information into financial statements based on information provided by the client.

 

Review Engagement

A review provides limited assurance on the financial statements based on the application of Canadian generally accepted standards. Through enquiry and analytical procedures, the practitioner provides a conclusion on the reviewed financial statements. This process is more rigorous but is less costly than an audit.

 

Audit Engagement

An audit opinion provides the highest level of assurance based on the application of the applicable reporting framework. This higher level of assurance is often required by third party users and requires extensive additional audit procedures performed by the practitioner and the audit team to achieve reasonable assurance over the financial statements.

 

Whether you require an audit, a review, or a compilation, we are here to assist you in navigating the financial reporting complexities and accounting standards requirements. We work closely with our clients to better understand their unique circumstances, ensuring that decision makers and stakeholders receive relevant and reliable financial information.

 

Additionally, Centrim Professional Corporation provides further consultation, insight, analysis and other resources to help our clients better understand the financial information. These highlights are designed to enhance strategic business planning and growth for your company.
