Financial Reporting

Proven Expertise in Audits, Compilations, and Reviews

Ensuring Accurate Financial Reporting for Your Business

As a business owner, you may be accountable to creditors, private investors, or shareholders, all of whom require assurance that your company’s financial statements accurately reflect its true financial position. At Delaware Audit, we specialize in providing CPA-certified financial statements at three levels of service: compilations, reviews, and audits.

Types of Financial Statements

  1. Compilations

The most basic level of service is a compilation. While there is no verification of the accuracy of the numbers presented, the financial statements produced can be used for both management and third-party purposes.

  1. Reviews

A review offers more in-depth analysis than a compilation but is less comprehensive than an audit. We conduct interviews with key personnel to assess accounting policies, procedures, operations, and financial statements. The result is a review report, offering “limited assurance” of the financials.

  1. Audits

Our audit services provide the highest level of assurance. We collaborate with your team to thoroughly understand your internal control systems and perform verification procedures in accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS).

Choosing Between an Audit, Review, or Compilation

Which service is right for your business? The answer depends on the level of financial accuracy and assurance you need. For example, you might opt for a compilation one year and later decide that a review or audit offers deeper insights for better decision-making and future growth planning.

Your Partner in Achieving Financial Success

Whether your company requires an audit, compilation, review—or all three—Delaware Audit’s team of experienced CPAs and tax professionals is here to support you.

Cash Flow Management

Don't Let Poor Cash Flow Management Be the Downfall of Your Business

Many Businesses Fail Due to Poor Cash Flow Management – Don’t Be One of Them

Cash flow refers to the movement of money in and out of your business. Positive cash flow means you're bringing in more money than you're spending—an essential goal for every business owner because it enables you to cover liabilities and reinvest in your business.

On the other hand, negative cash flow happens when your expenses exceed your income. While temporary periods of negative cash flow are common, consistent negative cash flow over several months can—and will—cause a business to fail.

Managing Cash Flow Is the Key to Success

At Delaware Audit, our tax and accounting professionals specialize in helping small and medium-sized business owners improve their cash flow management, leading to greater profitability.

Here’s How We Help You:

  • Develop short and long-term cash projections
  • Analyze prior cash flow statements to identify spending patterns
  • Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual cash flow statements
  • Provide tools to accelerate the collection process
  • Update your billing and payment policies
  • Assist in obtaining a line of credit
  • Help you maximize the return on surplus cash

Avoid a Cash Crisis – Call Delaware Audit First

Proactive cash flow management is essential to the success of any business. Let Delaware Audit help you stay ahead of potential cash flow challenges.

Internal Controls

Mitigating Risk and Protecting Your Business From Fraud

Every Business Faces Risk – Let Delaware Audit Help You Mitigate It

Risk is a reality for every business, but with an effective system of internal controls in place, that risk can be significantly reduced. However, managing these controls in-house can be challenging for business owners who are focused on running their operations, managing employees, and driving profits.

Effective Internal Control Systems Tailored to Your Business

At Delaware Audit, we specialize in helping businesses create and implement internal control systems designed to prevent fraud, ensure regulatory compliance, and promote efficient business operations. We work closely with your company to identify weaknesses in your current controls, test their effectiveness, and provide actionable recommendations to strengthen your systems based on your specific business needs.

What We Do for You:

  • Segregation of Duties: We recommend dividing responsibilities to ensure no single person has control over all financial transactions.
  • Transaction Authorization: We ensure that all transactions are authorized by individuals with the appropriate approval authority and that they comply with company policy and available funds.
  • Record Reconciliation: We ensure that financial records are reviewed and reconciled by someone other than the person who prepared or processed the transactions.
  • Asset Accountability: We ensure that equipment, inventory, cash, and other property are properly accounted for, secured, and routinely counted and compared to control records.
  • Employee Training: We provide employees with the necessary training and guidance to fulfill their roles responsibly.
  • Reporting Channels: We establish proper channels for reporting any suspected fraud or improprieties.
  • Policy Documentation: We help document policies and procedures and ensure they are easily accessible to employees.
  • Operational Review: We review your business operations to ensure they align with established goals and are executed as planned.

Don’t Let Employee Fraud Be the Downfall of Your Business

If you're concerned about employee fraud or overall business risk, it may be time to review and update your internal control systems. Let Delaware Audit help safeguard your business from unnecessary risks.
