In each episode of our Year-end toolkit series, our guests share insights on key areas of the year-end accounting and reporting process. The conversations are relevant for all finance teams, even if it’s not year-end close time. And it’s relevant even for those not engaged in the company’s closing process – the episodes have something for everyone.
In this next episode of our miniseries, we discuss audit-related reminders for preparers with Brian Croteau, PwC’s US Chief Auditor. In this episode we share timely insights for preparers to consider for the year-end audit, which is another important part of year-end accounting and reporting.
