Audits give you and your stakeholders a reasonable level of assurance

An audit provides a reasonable level of assurance for stockholders, creditors, and private investors. 

We’ll review internal controls, test selected transactions, communicate with third parties, and based upon our findings, issue a report on whether the financial statements are fairly stated and free of material misstatements.

What an Audit Does

  • Satisfies stakeholders such as employees, customers, suppliers, and pressure groups, as well as the investing community, as to the credibility of published information.
  • Facilitates the payment of corporate tax, goods and services tax, and other taxes on-time and accurately, thereby avoiding interest, penalties, and investigations.
  • Complies with banking covenants.
  • Helps deter and detect material fraud and error.
  • Facilitates the purchase and sale of businesses.

What a TPS Thayer Audit Delivers

With TPS Thayer, you get a reasonable level of assurance because we go outside your company to obtain more information. Typically, we’ll communicate in writing with:

  • Your Customers: to check outstanding receivable balances
  • Your Banks: to confirm cash or debt balances and terms
  • Your Vendors: to verify outstanding payable balances
  • Your Attorneys: for information on pending or threatened legal action.

We also perform physical inspections by observing your inventory counting methods and by performing test counts. Then, we document and test each operating cycle, including:

  • Sales and cash receipts
  • Expenses and cash disbursements
  • Payroll

Our audit papers include a detailed work program to document the examinations and tests performed and the client’s supporting work papers.

The Trusted Financial Advisors You Need in Your Corner

Trust is the key attribute our clients have in us because we approach every client as a trusted business advisor. Advisory services are solution focused and the lifeblood of what bonds us to our clients and establishes and maintains the level of trust that they have in us.

Industry Specific Consulting

Our professionals have expertise in several industries and healthcare is the industry in which we excel. We assist medical groups and other healthcare providers in implementing change management processes including practice assessments to determine where operations efficiencies need to be applied, benchmarking, and implementation of physician compensation plans.

Data Analysis and Continuous Fraud Auditing

We use various powerful data analysis tools to provide continuous auditing oversight to minimize the risk of fraud, embezzlement, or other financial irregularities in our client’s business operations.

Consulting Services

Outsourced Controllership

Write-up services are out, accounting oversight is in. Having your CPA enter transactions and reconcile accounts to produce financials or prepare tax returns is inefficient and too expensive. We provide a standard process and only accept clients that adhere to that process. Transactions are entered by your staff, on your GL software system, QuickBooks Online, or other cloud-based system.

Bank accounts are enabled for electronic banking and transactions download daily to the system. We access the GL at month end, tie in control totals, make recurring journal entries and deal with non-recurring transactions. We compile the financial statement and review them with management providing an efficient, affordable financial reporting system.

Consulting & Financial Reporting

Forensic, Valuation, & Litigation Support

We apply the right method to find the right valuation for your business

Valuation is a complex process demanding highly specialized skills and extensive knowledge of accounting, finance, economics, and business. Our insight and experience allow us to provide a quality product that fully satisfies our clients’ needs.

Our valuation & litigation support practice provides services in the following areas:

  • Medical Practice Valuation
  • Family Limited Partnerships
  • Estate and Gift Tax
  • Bankruptcy Proceedings
  • Litigation Support & Expert Testimony
  • Strategic Business Consulting
  • Buy / Sell Agreements
  • Real Estate Appraisals

 

It is critical to determine the purpose of the valuation and what the practitioner will include in the estimate of value. This determination shapes the choice and application of valuation methods because different approaches and concepts may be more appropriate for different purposes.

You want a seasoned expert with the training and expertise to apply an appropriate methodology and de-rive a reasonable and supportable value. 

Whether the situation demands financial valuation, litigation support, or business consultation, TPS Thayer provides insight and guidance to lead you through the critical decisions in the most challenging moments.

Outsourced Accounting and Financial Statement Preparation

Entrepreneurial businesses often reach a point where they need accounting oversight and someone to take on the burden of daily accounting tasks but can’t justify the cost of a full-time CFO or controller. When you reach that point, outsourced accounting services can give you back your time and help you make informed decisions.

We standardize the processes involved with the accounting functions of a small business. Our structured outsourced accounting services are uniquely tailored to keep your cost down but maximize the accounting expertise you need to run your business. 

We provide high-caliber, uniquely talented CPAs with a proven track record to accelerate results, reduce overall cost, and minimize risk

In addition to our talent delivery services, we can offer leadership advisory and thought leadership services to help financial executives enhance clarity, prioritization, and innovation.

Auditing Services

Audits Are Not Just for Public Entities

All public companies are required to have an annual audit, but some nonpublic entities must undergo an annual audit as well. These entities include:

  • Local Governments
  • Not-for-Profit Agencies
  • Organizations receiving governmental grants

Moreover, some financial institutions require audits of nonpublic companies based on the financing amount and/or the bank’s assessment of the company’s risk. Also, companies with absentee ownership (such as those owned by investment firms or individuals who no longer run the business) may order audits as checks of their management teams.

Auditing Services

Reviews Provide Limited Assurance

A review is less extensive than an audit but more involved than a compilation. A review consists primarily of analytical procedures applied to financial statements and various inquiries to your company’s management team. If the financial statements or supporting information appear inconsistent or otherwise questionable, we may need to perform additional procedures.

A review doesn’t require us to study and evaluate your company’s internal controls, verify data with third parties, or physically inspect assets. A review report expresses limited assurance in the form of the statement: “We are not aware of any material modifications” for the financial statements to conform with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Reviewed financial statements must include all required footnotes and other disclosures.

A review engagement can be an excellent middle ground that provides the advantages of a CPA’s technical expertise without the work and expense of an audit.

Auditing Services

Compilations Provide the Lowest Level of Assurance

Banks often require compilations from a CPA as part of their lending covenants. When TPS Thayer compiles financial statements for a client, we present information that is the “representation of management” and expresses no opinion or assurance. Compilations don’t require inquiries of management or analytical procedures. Instead, we rely on our knowledge of accounting principles and a general understanding of your business.

Auditing Services

Which Report Is Right for Your Company?

Each type of financial statement report may suit specific circumstances depending on your client’s bank or other parties’ requirements. Understanding each report’s unique strengths and weaknesses can help you choose the most appropriate one. For more information, call a TPS Thayer Audit Advisor.
