Benefits
• A company audit plays a pivotal role in identifying accounting system weaknesses and recommending improvements. By undergoing regular audits, businesses can enhance the credibility and reliability of financial figures presented to potential buyers, especially those considering a sale within the next three years.
• This audit process assures directors are not actively engaged in day-to-day accounting functions, ensuring that the business operates in alignment with the information they receive, subsequently reducing the likelihood of fraudulent activities and inaccurate accounting practices. Furthermore, shareholders benefit from the assurance that the financial figures accurately represent the business's true and fair view.
