United States Financial Statements Preparation

United States

Preparation of annual financial statements for a United States company from its completed accounting records.

Annual financial statements bring the year's accounting records together into a clear picture of the company's income, costs, assets, liabilities and financial position.

Coutts Consultants can arrange this service for your United States company and coordinate the records, specialist work and filing from start to finish.

What the service covers

We start with the company's records and confirm what needs to be completed for the financial statements preparation.

The work is prepared around the accounting and reporting requirements that apply in the United States, so the result is useful for the company rather than simply being a generic set of figures.

What we will need from you

We give you a clear information list for the United States work. Depending on the service, this can include bank statements, invoices, expenses, payroll information, previous returns and earlier financial statements.

If the United States records are incomplete or inconsistent, we identify what is missing before the accounts or filing are finalised.

What we will do

Coutts Consultants coordinates the financial statements preparation with the appropriate accounting, tax, payroll or audit professionals and keeps the work moving to completion.

Where a filing is required, it is prepared for the relevant federal and state tax authorities, subject to the company providing complete and accurate information.
