Statutory financial audit

Independent audit of annual financial statements for companies reporting under Taiwan GAAP or locally adopted IFRS.

This is our flagship engagement. We examine whether the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of the entity for the period under review.

Fieldwork covers risk assessment, tests of controls where we plan to rely on them, substantive procedures on significant accounts, and evaluation of going-concern disclosures when indicators arise.

Who it is for

Private limited companies, subsidiaries of overseas groups, and closely held firms in Taiwan that must present audited annual statements to shareholders, lenders, or regulators.

Result you receive

An independent auditor’s report, a schedule of proposed adjustments, and a management letter covering control observations ranked by urgency.

Scope
Statement of financial position, statement of comprehensive income, cash flows, equity changes, and accompanying notes for one reporting period, plus comparative figures when required.
Included
Planning meeting, materiality memorandum, walkthroughs of key cycles, sample testing, bank and receivable confirmations, inventory observation when material, draft and final reports, closing meeting.
Not included
Bookkeeping, tax filing, valuation of complex financial instruments by a specialist (we coordinate but do not replace the valuer), and forensic investigation of suspected fraud.
Provider
Engagement partner and senior auditor from Cloudbackendanalytics, with assistants assigned according to entity size.
Process
Acceptance → planning → interim procedures (optional) → year-end fieldwork → review → reporting.
Duration
Two to six weeks of active fieldwork after books are closed; overall calendar time often eight to twelve weeks including confirmations.
Location
On-site at your premises in the Taipei area when sampling or inventory observation requires it; otherwise hybrid from our Peitou office.
Preparation
Trial balance, general ledger detail, bank reconciliations, aged receivables and payables, inventory listings, fixed-asset register, board minutes, and prior-year audit file access if a predecessor auditor is involved.
Constraints
We do not accept engagements where independence is impaired. Multi-location groups may need component auditor coordination, which extends the timetable.

Quote-based from NT$180,000 depending on turnover, locations, and complexity. See the Fees page for factors.
