A Certified Public Accountant (CPA) document serves as a formal report prepared by a CPA to provide
financial insights, auditing, or verification of financial statements. CPA reports are critical for financial
decision-making, compliance with regulatory standards, and to establish credibility for stakeholders,
including investors, lenders, and regulatory authorities.
In general, a CPA report can be categorized as one of three types:
Compilation Report: This is used when financial statements are prepared without audit or
review assurances.
Review Report: Here, the CPA performs limited assurance procedures to ensure no material
misstatements.
Audit Report: This involves a complete audit of the financial records to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the financial health of the entity.
Each of these reports serves specific business needs and provides stakeholders with a reliable view of
the company’s financial status.
2. Scope and Purpose of the Report

Analysis of key financial ratios.
Evaluation of compliance with accounting principles.
Recommendations for financial management and improvement.
The report has been prepared following the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or

requirements.
