Companies often face the challenge of understanding the nuances and detailed guidance provided by accounting standards on specific transactions or financial statement presentations.
We ensure the company’s financial reporting is accurate, consistent, and in compliance with all relevant regulations by:
Complex Transaction Analysis: Analyzing and determining the appropriate accounting treatment for complex business transactions.
Financial Reporting: Preparing and reviewing financial statements to ensure compliance with applicable accounting standards.
Research and Documentation: When faced with unique or complicated transactions, technical accountants often must research the relevant accounting standards or seek guidance from professional bodies or advisory firms. They then document their findings and the rationale behind the accounting treatment chosen.
Liaising with Auditors: Technical accountants interact with external auditors, explaining and justifying the company’s application of accounting standards.
Staying Updated: Accounting standards can evolve, and new ones can be issued. Technical accountants must stay updated on these changes and understand their implications.
At Sapience, we provide revenue accounting guidance according to ASC 606. Our services range from pre-draft support with legal and sales – effectively writing the deal document to avoid clauses that would impede revenue recognition, contract review, documentation, proper accounting, reporting, and liaising with external auditors.
The objective of this accounting guideline is to increase transparency and comparability in financial reporting by requiring balance sheet recognition of leases and note disclosure of certain information about lease arrangements. We consult by analyzing the agreements to identify and ensure that proper accounting standards are being met.
We enable companies to stay updated with new pronouncements by complying with technical accounting standards issued by US GAAP.
