 | | Accounting is the practice of planning, maintaining and auditing financial accounts. |
 | | If an accounting firm audits a clientâs financial statements, that same firm cannot provide advice in the areas of human resources, technology, investment banking, or legal matters, although accountants may still advise on tax issues, such as establishing a tax shelter. |
 | | Internal auditors examine and evaluate their firmsâ financial and information systems, management procedures, and internal controls to ensure that records are accurate and controls are adequate to protect against fraud and waste. |
