DOLORE TE FEUGAIT NULLA FACILISI. LOREM IPSUM DOLOR SIT AMET, CONSECTETUER ELIT, SED DIAM TINCIDUNT UT LAOREET.

Assurance, accounting and tax services are at the core of our business.

We provide these services for businesses, not-for-profit organizations

and employee benefit plans, as well as for individuals, including

their estates and trusts. Our experience ranges from the simplest

to the most complex accounting and tax matters. Owners, lenders,

investors and other users of financial statements and tax returns

recognize that we are highly skilled in this arena. They trust our work

to be thorough and accurate and that’s why we’re often referred.

Why does this make a difference? Because it adds to your credibility

when you are seeking financing, exploring opportunities or

undergoing an audit. You can be sure that your financial statements

and tax returns are meticulously prepared and reliable.

Assurance and tax go hand-in-hand. Because DKSS teams are

cross-trained in these areas, no decision is made in a vacuum. We

look at your overall financial picture — from all aspects — to help

you discern the best path.

Assurance & Accounting You can rely on us to be thorough and efficient, while keeping our

eye on the big picture. We’ll share insights quickly and concisely,

and always keep you informed of our progress.

Compilations, Reviews and Audits. We can provide the appropriate

level of financial statement assurance for your business needs,

from a basic compilation to a full-scope audit. Of course, we also

prepare financial statements, determine disclosures and consult on

transaction measurement and reporting.

Employee Benefit Plan Audits. Certain qualified plans are required

to have an annual audit to ensure that they are operating in

compliance with plan documents and U.S. Department of Labor

regulations. DKSS has a team dedicated to these types of highly

specialized engagements.

Forecasts & Projections. We help our clients look ahead so that

they can make better financial and operational decisions.

Benchmarking. How are you doing? By comparing your company’s

key financial metrics to industry standards, we can help you

measure your performance, identify trends and expose areas in

need of improvement.Wisdom comes from experience. Our expertise and technical knowledge will guide you as you make important financial and tax decisions.

STAYING ON TOP OF REGULATORY ISSUES AND TRENDS IS IMPERATIVE. WE’RE INFORMED — AND WE KEEP YOU INFORMED.

CFO for Hire. DKSS often serves as an accounting resource for

clients. This arrangement may be as straightforward as providing

bookkeeping services to serving as your organization’s part-time or

interim CFO.

Certified QuickBooks® ProAdvisors. We can help you set up, train

and implement your software to generate reports designed to

deliver exactly the information you need.

TaxationThey say it’s not about how much you make, it’s about how much

you keep. We agree. We’ll keep you compliant with tax regulations,

but focus on strategies designed to minimize your burden.

Return Preparation. Whether your return is for informational or

tax purposes, it must be prepared accurately and filed on time. But

the nuances are crucial. We mind the details and deadlines while

uncovering ideas unique to your circumstances. That’s our job.

Tax Planning. This is an active process at DKSS. We take the initiative

to communicate with you year round to explore opportunities to

mitigate your tax bill. It’s important to understand how your personal

and estate tax planning impacts your business tax planning, and

vice versa. Count on our team of tax pros to help you make the

most strategic choices.

Estate & Wealth Planning. We encourage our clients to be deliberate

about the legacies they leave for their families and communities.

And we work closely with you and your other professional advisors

to preserve your wealth through proactive retirement, estate, gift

and succession planning.

Tax Audit Representation. In case of an audit or other tax challenge,

it’s often preferable to have your CPA field questions from the IRS,

state or local tax authorities. We are experienced in this area and can

serve as an effective shield, representative and negotiator for you.

Multistate and International Tax. As the world shrinks and clients

grow, we are often called upon to help navigate the complexities

of interstate and international tax regulations. Our connections

through AGN International are particularly useful in helping us

understand and manage multiple layers of bureaucracy.

Let DKSS handle your assurance, accounting, and tax needs while

you focus on growing your business and personal assets.
