In this era of economic uncertainty, it’s not just about making money. For businesses and individuals alike, minimizing expenses and documenting all business transactions correctly and honestly have become just as important as maximizing revenue.
That’s where accountants come in. Despite the “bean counter” stereotype, accountants are invaluable employees who lead clients through the ever-changing worlds of tax and finance. With corporate scandals filling up the news cycle on a daily basis, finding the right accountant isn’t just a sound financial decision – it could keep businesspeople out of bankruptcy … or even prison.
