Accounting for CPA · Australia & NZ
Financial Statements
Audit-ready GAAP and IFRS financial statements, compiled and disclosed with expert precision and AI-assisted accuracy.
Overview
Financial Statements for Australia & NZ
Your financial statements are the document every lender, investor, board member, and auditor reads first. AccountsUp produces complete, standard-compliant statement packages — balance sheet, income statement, cash flow, and equity — with footnote disclosures that withstand scrutiny. Whether you report under US GAAP or IFRS, our dedicated teams turn raw ledgers into board-ready reporting your stakeholders trust on sight.
Reporting rarely fails on the easy entries — it fails on the complex ones. Revenue recognition under ASC 606, lease accounting under ASC 842, business combinations, stock compensation, and consolidation are where errors hide and restatements begin. Our teams document the judgment behind every material position, so when an auditor or regulator asks how you arrived at a number, the answer is already written down.
We work inside the systems you already run — QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage — pulling directly from your trial balance rather than asking you to re-export data into ours. AI-assisted reconciliation flags variances, missing accruals, and disclosure gaps before a human reviewer signs off, giving you the speed of automation with the accountability of a named CPA-led team behind every deliverable.
- A faster, more predictable monthly and quarterly close
- Audit and review engagements with fewer open items and review comments
- Disclosures that stay current with the latest ASC and IFRS standards
- Board- and lender-ready reporting your stakeholders trust on first read
What's included
Everything the financial statements engagement covers
GAAP Financial Statements
Full US GAAP statement sets — balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, and changes in equity — prepared from your trial balance and tied to supporting schedules.
IFRS Reporting
Statements prepared under IFRS and IFRS for SMEs for entities reporting to overseas parents, lenders, or investors, with GAAP-to-IFRS conversion and bridging schedules when you report in both.
Compilations & Statement Prep
SSARS-compliant compilation engagements and management-use statements, complete with the accountant's report, so your CPA firm can extend capacity without adding headcount.
Complex-Transaction Accounting
Technical accounting for revenue recognition (ASC 606), leases (ASC 842), business combinations, equity and debt instruments, and stock compensation — each supported by a documented position memo.
Footnote Disclosures & Notes
Complete, tailored footnote disclosures — accounting policies, commitments, contingencies, related parties, and subsequent events — drafted to the current standard so nothing triggers an auditor's review comment.
Consolidations & Multi-Entity Reporting
Consolidated statements across subsidiaries, intercompany eliminations, noncontrolling interest, and multi-currency translation, delivered as one clean reporting package for groups and holding structures.
Audit-Ready Workpapers & Support
Reconciled schedules, lead sheets, and a tie-out package that maps every statement line to its source, so audit and review engagements move faster with fewer open items.
Management Reporting & KPI Packs
Board-ready monthly and quarterly reporting packs — variance analysis, ratio dashboards, and narrative commentary — that turn compliant statements into decisions leadership can act on.
Why AccountsUp
The advantage of financial statements done right
Dedicated CPA-Led Teams
You get a named team that learns your entities, policies, and reporting calendar — not an anonymous queue that restarts context every engagement.
AI-Assisted Accuracy
Automated reconciliation and disclosure checks catch variances and omissions before human review, so statements reach you cleaner and closer to final on the first pass.
Works Inside Your Stack
We report from QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage directly — no data migration, no parallel system, no learning curve for your finance team.
Standards Expertise, Current
Our reviewers track ASC and IFRS updates as they land, so your disclosures reflect the standard in force — not last year's template.
Global Coverage, Local Standards
Teams fluent in US, Canadian, UK, and Australian reporting frameworks support multi-jurisdiction groups without you sourcing a separate provider for each country.
Faster, Predictable Close
Documented workflows and reusable templates compress preparation time each cycle, giving you a reporting turnaround you can plan a board meeting around.
AI-powered, expert-led
The reliability of an in-house team, without the overhead
Most outsourcers give you throughput; AccountsUp gives you defensible reporting. A dedicated CPA-led team learns your entities and owns your deliverables, while AI-assisted reconciliation and disclosure checks catch what manual review misses. We work inside your existing QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, or Sage environment under enterprise-grade, SOC 2-aligned security — role-based access, MFA, and full audit trails — so faster statements never come at the cost of accuracy or control.
How it works
A clear path from first call to steady delivery
Discovery & Standards Scoping
We map your entities, reporting framework, chart of accounts, and system access, then agree the deliverables, standards, and deadlines that define the engagement.
Data Connection & Cleanup
Your team connects us to QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, or Sage. We reconcile accounts, clear open items, and confirm the trial balance is complete before drafting.
Preparation & Technical Review
We draft statements and disclosures, resolve complex-transaction accounting with position memos, and run AI-assisted checks before a senior CPA reviews every material judgment.
Delivery & Walkthrough
You receive the statement package plus a tie-out file, and we walk your team or auditor through every number, footnote, and supporting schedule.
Ongoing Reporting & Refinement
Each period runs faster on established templates. We fold in standards changes, new transactions, and auditor feedback so every close improves on the last.

Questions
Financial Statements, answered
Do you prepare statements under both US GAAP and IFRS?
Yes. We prepare full statement sets under US GAAP, IFRS, and IFRS for SMEs, and we handle GAAP-to-IFRS conversions with bridging schedules. This suits US entities with overseas parents or lenders, and international groups consolidating across multiple reporting frameworks.
How do you keep our financial data secure?
Your data stays in your systems wherever possible. We operate under enterprise-grade, SOC 2-aligned controls: role-based access, multi-factor authentication, encrypted transfer, and full audit trails on every action. Work happens in secured environments, and access is scoped strictly to the people on your engagement.
Which accounting platforms do you work with?
We work directly inside QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage, and pull payroll data from ADP where relevant. Rather than migrating you to our tools, we report from your trial balance in the system you already run, so your team keeps one source of truth.
Can you support our CPA firm's overflow during busy season?
Yes. Many clients are CPA firms that use us as an extension of their team for compilations, workpaper preparation, and disclosure drafting. We work under your review and branding, scaling capacity during peak season without you hiring, onboarding, and offboarding seasonal staff.
How do you handle complex transactions like revenue recognition or leases?
Each material transaction gets a documented position memo citing the relevant standard — ASC 606, ASC 842, business combinations, or stock compensation — and the judgment applied. When an auditor or regulator questions a number, the reasoning is already written down and ready to defend.
How long does onboarding take before the first statements?
Most engagements move from kickoff to first draft within two to three weeks, depending on how clean your trial balance is and how quickly system access is granted. Once templates and reconciliations are established, every subsequent reporting cycle runs meaningfully faster.
