There are two main reasons why Sam Kan & Company (SKC) ranks as one of the top accounting firms in the greater Alameda, California area. Those reasons are quality and personalization!
SEC audits, other auditing needs and accounting services make up the majority of our business which is not usually true of most large local, regional and national accounting firms. When considering most CPA firms, only a few actually specialize in SEC public company audit practices. Our success comes about as a result of our experience and training, combined with an understanding of the individual needs of our clients whether large or small.
Our clients have told us, on numerous occasions, that they most appreciate our professionalism combined with our understanding of their individual needs. In this manner, the success of our financial solutions have become “a given” and our other, more unique attributes, have come to the forefront in our accountant-client relationships. This says a lot.
A quality audit begins with a perfected audit strategy. The standard for our audit approach is that it must be economically viable and valuable, understandable to the client and, of course, client-specific.
Valuable Solutions
The road to better business and administrative practices begins with a solid accounting and auditing foundation. Working with small to medium-sized expansion-oriented businesses has given us the experience to approach the needs of our clients from a broader perspective, allowing us to take into account the strengths and relative weaknesses of those businesses as a whole. The hallmark of effective accounting and auditing services is proper evaluation of current financial practices, the accurate identification of current and potential inefficiencies and the highlighting of efficient, cost-effective solutions.
Understandable Feedback
SEC feels that an integral part of any accounting or auditing services is providing interpretations, detailed analyses and explanations in a manner that will facilitate complete client understanding. Anything less will obviously not serve the interests of client trust in the CPA firm that they have engaged. For our part, we endeavour to consistently update the board of directors, and those on the audit committee, of our strategies and diligently incorporate any special concerns and requests. Most importantly, great care must be taken to identify the client’s current financial position and the results of our strategies in a clear, concise manner that is meaningful to corporate shareholders, management personnel and other company-related entities.
Client-Specific Approach
The development of our audit plan hinges on a complete and thorough understanding of your business at its most basic level upwards to its most intricate complexities. Our approach to your company’s audit involves the application of audit testing to the identified areas of greatest risk. Since each company is, by its very nature, unique – no two audit strategies can be exactly the same. With our state-of-the-art risk assessment software, the tools that are at our disposal are as sophisticated as those of the largest international CPA firms. With an extensive repertoire of available auditing strategies, we have the capability to customize the design of our auditing programs to help maintain our client’s focus and to deliver an audit process tailored to the client’s industry-specific requirements.
