Description

Let’s get down to business… and the issues CPAs face in industry. As the most engaged advisor in a company’s financial health, how do you handle the factors not quantified on a P&L or real-world exchanges that don’t follow IRS definitions to a tee?

  • Financial statement fraud accounts for 10% of all white-collar crime, can you spot the red flags?
  • IT continues to impact the risk in the financial realm – determine a budget for your specific IT needs.
  • Leverage the unquantifiable factors of financial statements to build organizational value.

Beyond P&L: The Elements Driving the Value of Your Business
Financial statements are among the most scrutinized set of documents present in the sale of a business. While the CPA is the most directly engaged advisor in a company’s financial health, factors such as personal goodwill, scalability and recurring revenue, to name a few, are not quantified by financial statements. Understanding the importance of these factors and how to leverage them toward developing your business strategy can make all the difference in building organizational value.
