Client Responsibility: 

The extent of the record keeping function performed by the client will vary
depending on the assignment and will be agreed upon during the course of the
appointment. It is the client's responsibility to ensure the completeness
and accuracy of the records and information supplied and to provide
explanations on any item questioned in the course of the assignment. This is
necessary to ensure the accuracy of the financial information compiled under
this engagement. 

No Audit Conducted: 

It is the client's and their employees' responsibility for the maintenance
of their accounting systems and internal controls of all their business
entities.  That includes the keeping and maintenance of all required books
of account.  The Accounts Studio is not being engaged to conduct a statutory
audit of the financial records of any of your business entities and we will
not express an auditor's opinion as to the truth and fairness of the
financial statements.

Ownership of Documentation: 

The financial statements and any other documents we are specifically engaged
to prepare, together with any original documents given to us by you, shall
remain your property.  Any other documents brought into existence by us,
including general working papers and draft documents will remain our
property at all times. If our services are terminated, we shall be entitled
to retain all documents that we have prepared or hold until payment in full
of all outstanding fees.

Agreed Fee:  

Hourly rates together with our fixed price services are periodically
reviewed and are subject to change without notice. However we are committed
to delivering value for money and will adjust rates in accordance with
market conditions. 

Telephone Policy: 

We appreciate that you will need to contact us from time to time and often
this need will be urgent. We have thus devised the following telephone
policy to ensure that your questions are dealt with in the shortest possible
timeframe. We suggest you use the business telephone number as your first
point of contact. Our business involves occasional on-site work so if you
are unable to contact us on the business number please try the mobile
number. If we are unavailable then a message will be taken.   In some cases
your questions will not be urgent. We encourage you to utilise email or
facsimile facilities listed above. This allows you to leave a detailed
message and we will then deal with your request as soon as possible.

Invoicing Policy: 

Invoices are rendered on a weekly or monthly basis. Where the nature of the
appointment is a set assignment invoicing is made on completion of the
assignment or if the assignment is a larger one then progress invoices may
be used. We expect fees to be paid within normal trade terms, which are
communicated on our invoices. Statements are supplied at the end of each
month for balances that remain unpaid.   Payment may be made by direct
transfer, cheque or credit card.

We request that all invoices are to be paid within 7 day terms.  All new
clients are on payment terms of COD for the initial 6 month period.
