Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about nonprofit audits, fees, and timing.

Does every nonprofit need an audit?

No. An audit may be required by charitable registration rules, funding agreements, lenders, or other circumstances. Some organizations also obtain audits voluntarily to support governance and financial accountability. We can discuss the requirements applicable to your situation.

Can you help with our first audit?

Yes. We explain the process and preparation requirements so your team understands the records, schedules, and staff involvement needed.

How much does a nonprofit audit cost?

Fees depend on the organization’s size, activities, funding sources, accounting records, and reporting requirements. We review these factors before proposing a fee.

How long will our audit take?

Timing depends on the scope, readiness of your records, and resolution of audit questions. We discuss your deadline before accepting the engagement and establish a schedule with your team.

Can you audit our organization if another firm handles our bookkeeping?

Yes, subject to engagement acceptance and independence requirements. With your authorization, we can coordinate document requests with your accounting provider.

Do you work with nonprofits outside Georgia?

We welcome inquiries from organizations outside Georgia. Availability depends on the engagement and applicable CPA licensing and firm registration requirements.
