Audits, Reviews, Compilations and Forensic Accounting

We view our role in the financial reporting process as an opportunity to provide constructive solutions for maximizing your company's profitability and efficiency. Our seasoned team of professionals has had broad exposure to many industries and businesses over decades. We provide financial reporting on four levels of assurance:

	Audit — an examination, on a test basis, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, providing reasonable assurance on the financial statements
	Review — inquiries and analytical procedures are conducted, providing limited assurance on the financial statements
	Compilation — based upon client information provided, no assurance is given on the financial statements
	Forensic Accounting — we handle special projects, investigations, tracing and marital dissolution matters.

Our commitment to delivering superior service means that we strive to demonstrate initiative, anticipate problems, propose options, and communicate effectively with you and other members of management throughout the year.

The Dashboard Report

"A picture is worth a thousand words": Our Dashboard functions in much the same way as the dashboard in your car enables you to drive without having to open the hood constantly to check — so long as there are no glowing red lights and the dials are not in the red-zone. The Gerber Dashboard System gives you useful, timely information to facilitate efficient management and makes it easy to spot deviations from target. Let us design a Dashboard for your enterprise to provide summarized relevant data in graphics / pie charts / trendlines to show you the highlights from accounting and other quantitative and qualitative data — it is an invaluable management and information tool. "It's an early warning system when things are moving off course." — Selwyn Gerber CPA

Beyond Beancounting

We understand that the objective view of the company's operations provided by an audit can be a basis for a whole range of important business decisions. The audit also helps us learn about a client's business, which means our audit puts us in a position to identify opportunities to bring insightful and constructive suggestions for improving management information, operating and accounting procedures and controls.

As your business advisors, we will also look for opportunities to reduce your costs and improve asset management. We offer wide-ranging, practical suggestions that would be difficult and expensive to obtain through internal staffing. We regard this as one of the prime responsibilities inherent in our approach to service and will make it one of our major objectives in working with you.

"Beyond Beancounting is more than our mantra — it defines how we view our relationships with our clients. For example, as a result of acquiring an intimate knowledge of clients' financial and administrative structures, we recommend improvements for more efficient operation, stronger financial position, better cash flow management , and improved accounting and administrative controls. Our philosophy of practice is to blend the technical, the practical, and the business approach in each engagement" — Selwyn Gerber CPA
