Our Services

Our services range from write-up assistance from source documentation, to compilation of financial statements for organisations at all levels and across a wide range of industries. Accordingly, we provide customised services to our clients in a most economical and cost effective manner. We believe that accounting records should be prepared for purposes of decision-making. Accordingly, clients are encouraged to maintain accurate records monthly. We understand that management is often forced to focus on the day-to-day issues that affect their business and which can take precedence over attention to accounting issues. We also understand that it is as important for our clients to focus on their core business. With this in mind, we assist our clients in achieving good business decisions based on a combination of sound accounting practices, industry benchmarks and current information regarding new trends and challenges. We encourage our clients to concentrate on their core business while we take care of the accounting and related administrative functions. We commit ourselves to providing timely and accurate financial information to our clients. Meaningful and accurate financial records ensure that your business operations will run more efficiently on a daily basis and ensure that you meet your immediate regulatory and tax deadlines and compliance.

Tax compliancy and being up to date at SARS is extremely important. We are Registered Tax Practitioners and aim to deliver professional taxation services to all our clients ranging from individuals to companies and other legal entities.

In a company, payroll is the sum of all financial records of salaries for an employee, wages, bonuses and deductions. In accounting, payroll refers to the amount paid to employees for services they provided during a certain period of time. Payroll plays a major role in a company for several reasons.

By improving the effectiveness and efficiency of your company secretarial department, with duties such as submission of annual returns and payments, we relieve management of the burden of running and controlling a company secretarial function, leaving them time to focus on the important task of growing the business.

Accurate, well-designed and up to date management accounting is imperative to business success. Our endeavour is in understanding your business, and preparing and interpreting management information to assist you in running your business.

The preparation of financial statements is known as compilation. Compilation provides the lowest level of assurance and represents information provided by management without any express assurance on the financial statements.

Audit The highest level of assurance that financial statements are presented fairly in all material respects, in accordance with the appropriate accounting framework, is an audit. It is a methodical and objective examination of the financial statements and the verification of specific information.

The audit considers internal controls, testing of selected transactions and communication with third parties. The results are reported as to whether the financial statements are fairly stated and free of material misstatements. The audit gives both management and external parties the assurance that the financial data are credible to use to make informed decisions.

In terms of the Companies Act 2008 (effective May 2011), private companies in South Africa are required to have an audit if they have a measure of public interest, quantified in terms of their turnover, number of employees, number of shareholders and level of third party debt. All public companies are required to have an audit. Audits can only be performed by Registered Auditors accredited by the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (IRBA).

We are Registered Auditors with IRBA.

INDEPENDENT REVIEWS An independent review entails performing an inquiry into financial statement related matters. These include accounting principles and practices, record keeping practices, accounting policies, actions of the board of directors and changes in business activity.

The review studies performance related to previous years, ratio analysis and reasonability. The report states that it provides a reasonable basis for expressing limited assurance that there are no known material modifications that should be made to the financial statements to conform with the appropriate accounting framework.

An auditor's report is considered an essential tool when reporting financial information to users, particularly in business. Since many third-party users prefer, or even require financial information to be certified by an independent external auditor, many auditees rely on auditor reports to certify their information in order to attract investors, obtain loans, and improve public appearance. Some have even stated that financial information without an auditor's report is "essentially worthless" for investing purposes.
