Business Audit FAQs
What types of businesses need a financial statement audit?
Businesses typically require an audit when lenders, investors, or boards mandate audited financials, when regulatory requirements apply, or when preparing for an IPO or significant transaction. Nonprofits with federal funding and public companies under SEC reporting are also required to undergo audits annually.
What is the difference between a financial statement audit and a review?
An audit provides the highest level of assurance through independent testing and a formal opinion. A review provides limited assurance through analytical procedures and inquiry, appropriate for lenders or governance requirements that do not mandate a full audit.
How long does a business audit take?
Audit timelines vary based on the size and complexity of the organization, quality of existing records, and engagement type. Most private company audits run 6 to 12 weeks from kick-off to issued opinion. GreenGrowth CPAs establishes a realistic timeline at the start of each engagement and plans fieldwork to minimize disruption to your team.
Can GreenGrowth CPAs audit cannabis businesses?
Yes. GreenGrowth CPAs has extensive experience auditing cannabis operators and understands the regulatory, compliance, and financial reporting nuances specific to the cannabis industry, making us a preferred audit partner for cannabis businesses across the US.
What is the difference between an internal audit and an external audit?
An internal audit is performed by employees within the organization to evaluate internal controls, risk management, and operational processes. An external audit is performed by an independent CPA firm to provide an objective opinion on the accuracy of financial statements, primarily for stakeholders outside the business. Internal audits support management; external audits support investors, lenders, regulators, and boards. GreenGrowth CPAs provides external audit services.
What documents will my business need to prepare for an audit?
A typical audit requires bank statements and reconciliations, trial balance and general ledger, accounts receivable and payable aging, fixed asset and depreciation schedules, inventory records, loan agreements and amortization schedules, contracts, payroll records, prior-year tax returns, and board meeting minutes. Industry-specific records (such as COGS documentation for cannabis or stock-based compensation calculations for technology companies) may also be required. We provide a tailored PBC (prepared-by-client) list at the start of each engagement.
