Where would you like your estate, personal assets or business to be in five years? Consider ten years? Have you wondered if there are there ways to expand revenue or make calculated cutbacks to make your company more efficient?
Certified Public Accountants
Whether you are a growing company or a well-established business, a personal investor or a regular citizen, having a Utah Certified Public Accountant behind you can reap tremendous benefits, especially in the long-term. They act as coaches, guides and trainers, helping businesses and clients set a solid course of action for the success of their financial endeavors. A CPA is a critical part of any solid organization and key to its success.
What is a Utah Certified Public Accountant?
It is important to remember that not all accountants are Certified Public Accountants. There is a distinct difference even though sometimes the terms are used interchangeably.
The CPA designation holds valuable weight in the personal, business and financial worlds. CPAs are respected as some of industry’s most trusted advisers, making them a tremendous asset to individuals, small business owners and large corporations–either as an independent advisor or an in-house Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Upon completion of the CPA exam, each state then has additional requirements to become licensed in that state. And just because a CPA is licensed in one state does not give license to practice in another state. Until the CPA has fulfilled that state’s specific requirements, the CPA will not be recognized by the state. Having a CPA that is qualified under the State of Utah Board of Accountants ensures that your personal or business finances and projections will be aligned with the Utah State laws and tax codes.
And lastly, CPAs are also required to follow a strict Professional Code of Conduct and perform within the high standards of the profession, as well as completing 80 hours of continuing professional education every two years to keep up with the new rules and regulations in the financial, accounting and business sectors.
