We’re well into the busy audit season here at Ross Brooke Chartered Accountants Newbury, but as ever our audit teams are working very hard keeping all of our audit clients happy. We are also interviewing for more staff this week to help with our increasing number of satisfied clients.
With the help of some new technology we’re managing to do more audit work in the office this year, taking the hassle and interruption away from our clients, as well as reducing our carbon footprint, and still looking for ways to add value from our audit work.
There are many ways we can add value, such as: reporting on weaknesses in financial controls which could lead to accounting errors, cash losses, or even fraud; finding areas of inefficiency in systems and procedures, and advising on improvements to make; and suggesting tax saving opportunities such as the research & development tax credit.
Simply having your accounts audited adds value to them by reassuring any users that they have been externally examined and tested for errors. This can make it much easier to trade with new suppliers and customers, obtain funding or new investment, and sell part or all of the business.
Our auditors have been trained in various firms including ones from the big 4 and top 60 firms, and we are reviewed every year for quality by the UK200 Group, so you can trust our audit teams to be efficient, reliable, and thorough. However, as a relatively small firm our overheads are low so we can provide these quality services at very competitive prices.
If you would like a free meeting to discuss your audit or any other tax or accounting needs, please contact us or call into our Newbury office during working hours 01635 555666.
