What are Audits, Reviews, and Compilations?
Audits, reviews, and compilations are attest services that help organizations prepare, evaluate, and report financial information at different levels of assurance. An audit provides the highest level of assurance through detailed testing and verification, a review provides limited assurance through analytical procedures and inquiries, and a compilation assists with presenting financial information without providing assurance.
CKH Group provides audit, review, compilation, and agreed-upon procedures services for businesses, professional employer organizations, nonprofits, government entities, employee benefit plans, and other organizations. Our team helps clients meet financial reporting, lender, regulatory, and stakeholder requirements while providing the level of assurance appropriate for their needs.
External Audits
Our external audit services provide an independent, objective assessment of your financial statements and reporting under the generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS) issued by the AICPA. Our experienced auditors combine industry knowledge, regulatory expertise, and a rigorous audit process to determine accuracy of financials.
Agreed Upon Procedures
Our agreed-upon procedures (AUP) services provide targeted testing for organizations that need independent findings on specific financial, operational, or compliance matters, including internal control testing, without a full audit or review. CKH Group reports the results without providing an assurance conclusion.
Audit vs. Review vs. Compilation
The key difference between an audit, review, and compilation is the level of assurance provided. An audit provides the highest level of assurance and includes detailed testing and verification of financial information. A review provides limited assurance and relies primarily on analytical procedures and inquiries.
A compilation provides no assurance. In a compilation, the CPA helps present financial information in financial statement format but does not verify its accuracy or completeness. The right service depends on the level of assurance your organization, lenders, regulators, or other stakeholders require.
A Smarter, More Efficient Audit Experience
At CKH Group, we combine experienced professional judgment with data-driven tools designed to improve audit accuracy, efficiency, and transparency. Our audit teams use technology such as Caseware IDEA to analyze large datasets, identify unusual transactions, perform statistical sampling, and focus testing on areas of greater risk.
Behind the scenes, standardized quality-control processes and structured project management help keep engagements organized and moving forward. By reducing manual work and improving how financial data is analyzed, our team can spend more time focused on the areas that require professional judgment, communication, and meaningful insight.
