Request a 15-Minute Assessment

Five details is all we need to get started. A CPA takes it from there.

No cost and no obligation. Tara or Dustin will reply within a day or two, and if the requirement is unclear they will confirm it directly with whoever is asking.

Which do you need?

Three levels of assurance. One conversation to find yours.

Audit, review, and compilation differ by how much assurance a CPA provides and who tends to require them. Not sure which applies? Start the assessment and we will place you.

Reasonable assurance

Audit

An independent examination with a formal CPA opinion on whether your statements are fairly presented.

Typical trigger: a lender covenant, investors, a regulator, or an acquisition.

Limited assurance

Review

Inquiry and analytical procedures, with the CPA stating whether anything needs to change. A step below an audit.

Typical trigger: a lender or board comfortable with limited assurance.

No assurance

Compilation

CPA-prepared statements presented with a compilation report. The most basic CPA engagement that includes a report.

Typical trigger: an SBA or franchisor request, or ID/NV contractor licensing.

How it works

From requirement to engagement in three steps.

Share what is being asked of you and who is asking. No prep, no cost, no obligation.

We confirm what you actually need

A CPA tells you whether your lender, bonding company, or licensing board calls for an audit, a review, or a compilation. If the wording is unclear, we will contact them directly and confirm it.

Scope, timeline, and engagement

You get a fee estimate and a timeline, then an engagement letter and an information request if you want to move forward.

Common questions

Answered before you pick up the phone.

What is the difference between an audit, a review, and a compilation?
They differ by level of assurance. An audit is the highest level, providing reasonable assurance: an independent CPA opinion backed by testing. A review is limited assurance from inquiry and analytical procedures. A compilation carries no assurance. It is CPA-prepared statements with a compilation report. The right level depends on who is requiring the statements.
What does it cost?
Fees depend on the scope, the entity, and what the requirement actually calls for, so we do not publish a number that would be wrong for most people. You will have a tailored estimate after a short conversation, before any commitment.
How fast can you start?
That depends on the engagement and the condition of your records, which is exactly what the 15-minute assessment sorts out. Book it and a CPA will give you a realistic timeline for your situation.
Do you prepare financial statements for contractor licensing?
Yes, including Idaho and Nevada contractor licensing. It is a regular part of our work and we know the format those boards expect.
Do you work with companies outside Utah?
Yes. CMP is Utah based with offices in Logan, Layton, and St. George, and works with clients remotely across the country. Distance does not change your access to a CPA.
Who will I actually work with?
Dustin Wood or Tara Williams, both CPAs and both partners. The same person stays with your engagement from the first call through delivery, and year over year after that.
