A Good Accountant Costs Nothing
Engaging a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is the start of a professional relationship that includes more than preparing a tax return. It is acquiring a “partner” in your quest for financial security.
Not just anyone can become a CPA. The Georgia State Board of Accountancy (GSBA) requires candidates to earn a degree with a concentration in accounting and pass the Georgia CPA Examination. On an ongoing basis, CPAs are required to complete 80 hours of continuing education, as well as renew their license every two years.
A good CPA offers guidance on many types of financial, investment, business, employment, and compensation questions. He or she goes far beyond the required training to take the time to learn about your situation and goals, and invests in special software programs that automate mundane accounting tasks, freeing up time to offer a personal touch; including being available to answer questions throughout the year.
While many of us can do our own taxes, and possess enough knowledge to manage our own finances, the value of a good accountant is that he or she saves you time. How many of us have more days than we care to admit where we feel like a clattering train barreling down a track, trying to make it from morning to night with our businesses, jobs, and family obligations intact? How many of us have taken days off, away from our respective areas of expertise, just to unravel a complicated financial matter (instead of using that time to focus on what we do best, or taking a vacation)? What is frustrating to an individual, is most likely quite simple to a good CPA.
