Accounting firms for government and public sector
State and local governments report under GASB standards and, when they spend federal awards, need Single Audits. Many are selected through formal procurement, where a firm's government experience is scored.
What to ask a firm about government and public sector
- How many governmental audits under GASB do you perform?
- Do you perform Single Audits, and are your auditors current on Yellow Book CPE?
