When it comes to accounting, we often think about the final presentation of financial data to the board of directors. But that's only one piece of the larger puzzle. Executives must understand the underlying financial reporting and reconcile it against all other pre-arranged information in the company's books to produce an accurate picture of the company's health. Yet many companies are only now starting to recognize the role accounting plays in this process because of accounting software developments that have been so effective at simplifying financial reporting requirements.

Accounting is the most essential function performed by almost every company. Without an accurate and complete understanding of your business, it is difficult to plan, coordinate, and execute projects on time and within budget. An accountant at Alchemist also ensures records are kept of invoices, receipts, income statements, and other information required by compliance personnel so there can be no dispute over payment any time an expense is incurred. Accounting is a required reporting function for most companies, although it may not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about employment law issues.

Analyzing the accounting records is a vital first step in figuring out the final merger settlement price. The process begins with an audit of each company’s balance sheet. All balances—both current and long-term—are included in the balance sheet. The balance sheet includes revenue, cost of goods sold (COGS), assets, liabilities, distribution (TDS), and interest receivable. The primary function of the balance sheet is to depict an accurate picture of a company's financial health.

This process is used to ensure smooth operations, transparency, and accurate finances for our clients as well as for any other organization that might require financial assistance. This concept is something that is commonly used by accounting firms around the world. Confidential Information Memoranda or CIM reports are mandatory and must be completed by each employee working within the organization for which they have been appointed. Often these documents are used in all financial reports and audits; however, depending on the size and complexity of your organization it could be assigned individual audits for additional scrutiny.

Accounting is Essential to the Success of Every Business Deal. Accounting helps indicate, for example, how much money you will lose if you are unable to make a deal. It also helps prevent bickering over accounting procedures that could delay or stop a deal from taking place. As part of our Accounting and Finance track, we produce a deal model each time we participate in a transaction that involves cash flow – some of it positive, some of it negative. Our goal at Alchemist is to provide clarity for both parties regarding the overall outlook for the business.

The key to properly documenting these transactions is where Alchemist consultants are valuable and can add to the smooth functioning of accounting during mergers.
