FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who is required to have an audit in Georgia?

Under the Law of Georgia on Accounting, Reporting and Auditing, a financial statement audit is mandatory for public interest entities and for first and second category entities. The category is determined by thresholds for assets, revenue and number of employees. For other entities an audit is voluntary.

What is the difference between an audit and a review?

The objective of an audit is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Unlike a full audit, a review is primarily based on inquiry (with management and other personnel) and analytical procedures, rather than detailed testing.

How long does an audit take?

The timeline depends on the size of the company, the state of the records and the readiness of documents.

Can BeeWise keep our books and audit them at the same time?

No. Independence requirements prohibit providing bookkeeping and auditing the resulting financial statements for the same company. If BeeWise keeps your books, the audit is performed by another independent auditor, and we help you prepare for it.

How should we prepare for an audit?

The most important things are closed and reconciled records, inventory count reports, contracts and bank statements, and a responsible person to communicate with the auditor. At the planning stage we provide a full list of the documents required.
