Professional and Industry Experience

Tax Preparation
• Before the year end my responsibility is to prepare tax forecast for our clients. This
includes taking the client’s books and estimating the year end totals, by forecasting
the revenue and expenses through the end of the year. After the forecasting process
I prepare estimated year-end financial statements, then I calculate the estimated
Tax for the year using ProSystem tax software.
• After the year-end I collect the client’s tax documents and file them into a file storage
system called DocIt. During the filling process it is my responsibility to determine
what documents are relevant to the tax return, and then determine what impact will
the documents will have on the return.
• When preparing an S-Corp, Corporation, or a Partnership I am tying to the client’s
tax documents to the client’s financial statements, if different I will make Adjusting
Journal entries to tie to client’s tax documents.
• When preparing an individual tax return I am compiling and tying the client’s
documents using a control work paper in excel that ties to the tax return. The
purpose of the Control is to double check my work as well as help the reviewer
check my work.
• My responsibility is to the client and to make sure the client files correctly according
to GAAP. This is done by staying up to date and current on tax laws. I do this by
attending Tax Seminars and sometimes by conducting tax research.
Governmental/Commercial Audits
• Before starting a governmental audit it was my responsibility to acquire meeting
minutes for the year and read through them and determine any actions during the
year that could be material and need to be tested during the audit.
• Before a commercial audit it was my responsibility to look through the current year
financial statements and prior year financial statements and determine if any
account has a material difference and that might need to be tested during the audit.
• During the audits I would be assigned to certain accounts that need to be tested, for

example accounts payable, cash, and etc. I would test the accounts by haphazardly
selecting transactions. Then I would tie the selected transactions to the invoices to

on purchases.

input them into either QuickBooks or Creative Solutions Accounting Software.

financial statements (balance sheet, Income statement, general ledger and etc.).
