Serving the public at large.
Hiring a CPA is hiring a professional with a high level of education in accounting, tax, financial reporting, and experience to assist you. You also benefit from the CPA maintaining that level of education through mandatory continuing professional education throughout their career.
CPAs are also accountable and can be held accountable: they have an obligation to anyone they are providing professional services to and must maintain their responsibility to the public.
They’re working in the public interest by serving the public while at the same time they’re not specifically under someone’s order. During the COVID-19 pandemic for instance, the U.S. public accounting profession has guided Congress, the Department of the Treasury, the IRS, business trade groups… on federal relief bills for small businesses and their employees including the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).
As financial statement auditors, CPAs help promote investors’ confidence in the financial markets.
The professionals at Aimlon CPA P.C. abide by these principles and will continue, to the best of their ability, serving the public at large and contributing to the accounting profession.
