passport to partnership
the skill in producing financial reports is limited by the quality of the information presented to the cpa by the client. the motivation of the client to influence that financial information comes in many forms, some intentional and some unintentional. competence comes first in being able to resist pressure and present a true and accurate position of the client’s organization.

“progressive technology” is about to boom.

but are audit firms on the cusp of the boom-to-be? apparently not. a thomson reuters survey of audit firms finds that there’s still a big gap between ambition and execution. only 14 percent of auditors in the u.s. can brag that a “digital transformation” is well under way at their firms, though another 35 percent say they are starting to implement progressive tech.

what client goes out for an audit proposal when their auditor provides relevant advice and useful suggestions?
by alan anderson, cpa
transforming audit for the future
your client likely engaged your firm for an audit because they need an audit. but what is it that they want? they don’t want a stack of paper delivered months after year-end. like anyone else, they focus on “what’s in it for me?” or wiifm.
exclusively for pro members. log in here or 2022世界杯足球排名 today.
they want relevant ideas that will help them improve their businesses. they want to learn from you about your experience with others in their industry or in a similar situation. they want a relationship with you to talk about their business in plain english. they want someone who can explain the accounting standards and how they impact how they report their results.
remember our definition of relevance:
what you need to know now.
by eric green
for over a year now, we’ve been saying that the irs was properly funded and warned it would unleash a tidal wave of work. we also warned you that we would be dealing with all sorts of untrained employees. the bad news, at least for clients, is that day has come.
exclusively for pro members. log in here or 2022世界杯足球排名 today.
the good news for tax pros is that with this wave of enforcement spells opportunities for representation work. what you do still have to navigate is the impact of untrained employees, who are creating their own set of challenges.

quick tech talk

there are so many incredible artificial intelligence (ai) tools out there. some of the leading companies in this space will be openai, microsoft, google, facebook, et.al. you know, the normal big technology firms. however, several really interesting and useful niche ai applications are popping up, many of which are inside the accounting space and other financial sectors.
now, these tools can be awesome because they can take tremendous quantities of data, process them in a meaningful way, almost in the blink of an eye, and give you the key insights you can use to know what’s happening inside your business. i like to say it helps you find hidden nuggets of wisdom, those little needles in the haystack that are not observable when you’re just looking at one or a week’s transaction. rather, we will see certain trends emerge when you look at potentially 1000s or even millions or more transactions. frankly, that’s not possible for a human to do. we can’t keep it all in our heads. but guess what, these ai tools can leverage large language models, generative ai, machine learning and more. they can do the heavy lifting for you. so you’re still in the driver’s seat interpreting that information, making it useful and meaningful for your client. but you’ve got these robot workers that can do the heavy lifting to save you a bunch of time.

the disruptors
with liz farr
like many who start out in public accounting, vimal bava didn’t initially question the status quo of our high-stress profession where long hours and little time for self-care are the norm. part of that stress was a partner who would “chew us out” for mistakes on returns.
