havana, cuba – the united states is ending its 55-year trade embargo on cuba. an embassy has been opened in havana, and cuba is opening its doors to american business.

the blockade isn’t down yet, but it is being dismantled as fast as washington politics allows. it isn’t too soon to start looking for opportunities for international growth just 90 miles off the coast of the united states.

maybe this is your father’s accounting practice

too many tech ‘solutions’ don’t solve the real ‘problems.’

as a person who still prefers books to e-books, who chooses a landline over her cell phone, who cherishes her collection of vinyl albums and who enjoys writing letters in longhand (btw: i’m writing my first draft of this article in longhand), and (full confession), as a cpa who maintains a small tax practice of her own and who manages her books in excel (in spite of the fact that i know many accounting software programs inside out and have written myriad books about financial software), i can completely relate to the results of the accounting firm operations and technology survey without a trace of the surprise and disappointment expressed by my journalistic colleagues who shared their points of view.

accountants aren’t clueless about technology and they’re not stupid when it comes to making decisions about how to operate their business. what they are is busy.

study decries ‘myth’ of public interest

huber
huber

call it what it is, ‘market interest,’ author argues.

by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间

the accounting profession’s governing establishment is actually a cabal of industry and government designed to thwart – instead of protect – the public interest, a new study asserts.

“the public interest is proven to be a myth, a construct created to disguise what interest the public accounting profession, and the associated governmental and private regulatory and standard-setting bodies actually serve and protect – the market interest,” says the author, wm. dennis huber of cappella university.

in critically analyzing the language of the missions, charters, statutes and legislative findings of auditing and accounting standard-setting bodies and government regulatory agencies, huber found that “the public interest” as professed by these organizations is “plagued by significant inconsistencies, contradictions, and conflicts.” read more →

thinking technology? then think beyond average

‘average is where the best of the worst meets the worst of the best.’

by jim boomer
the accounting firm operations and technology survey

boomer

the accounting firm operations and technology survey provides some great insights on where firms stack up in both practice management and technology. i encourage you to view this as the starting point, though. strive to be better in all areas regardless of whether you are below, at or above average. after all, average is where the best of the worst meets the worst of the best.

break away from the herd

whether it is technology, processes or new service lines, we, as a profession, have the tendency to follow the herd. large firms look at peers and do what they do. small firms tend to look at other small firms.i challenge you to look beyond the firms of similar size for additional ideas on how to support your firm’s continued improvement and growth. we’ve found that small firms can learn a great deal from those that are larger and vice versa. read more →

guske & company pllc got into this vast niche by professional coincidence, a client who liked the firm’s work and asked for some tax help with a new business. he was growing marijuana. this was new to guske, but it sounded interesting.

“i told him i’d have to do some research first,” guske tells 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间. “i wanted to get a good understanding of what was going on tax-wise and an understanding of the industry before i accepted a client in that industry.”

communication: more powerful than any software

‘you can’t get ahead having a heart-to-heart with a spreadsheet.’

the accounting firm operations and technology survey

i once interviewed a cpa who was a partner in a small accounting firm with his father. the father was a “detail guy” who knew every detail of the irc and made sure their clients paid no more than the legal minimum. the son was more “front office.”

he personally delivered every return to their high-net-worth clients in their homes and went over each form and schedule: “what are you unclear about? based on changes in your family situation, there will be some tax implications. let’s discuss what we can do about them…” he realized that handling the numbers was not enough – he had to explain what they meant. and he had to listen.

this type of skill is more important now than ever, and a way for accountants to clearly differentiate themselves from increasingly sophisticated and inexpensive software.
