Year-end review services
Before anything gets filed, someone has to check that the year actually adds up. We take the books as they stand, test every material balance back to evidence, and hand you a clean trial balance with an exception list — not a surprise in week three of the filing window.
What we review
- Every balance sheet account agreed to third-party evidence
- Bank, loan, credit card and inter-company reconciliations tested
- Debtor and creditor ledgers aged and agreed to control accounts
- Stock, WIP and fixed asset registers verified against the ledger
- Revenue cut-off and accrual/prepayment completeness testing
- Prior-year comparatives agreed to the signed accounts
What you receive
- A finalised trial balance ready to take forward
- Proposed adjusting journals, each with its supporting rationale
- An exception report listing what we could not verify and why
- A schedule of open questions for the client or director
- Working papers indexed so your reviewer can follow the trail
A review service, not an assurance engagement. We do not express an audit or review opinion — that requires a licensed practitioner in your jurisdiction.
Year-end review in your jurisdiction
Compliance knowledge isn't transferable, so each market has its own trained pod and review checklist. Pick yours for the detail.
