Accounting & Auditing
 Our firm has the expertise and resources to carry out statutory audits for a large range of clients.
Consistent with BAKER TILLY ZACCA philosophy of quality service, our audits are more than just statutory audits. We have a broad practical knowledge of auditing, both on a local and international scale. Our aim is to conduct every audit with maximum efficiency and so provide clients with genuine solutions to problems that may arise.
Our audit staff is trained to identify and discuss with the client, potential problems or areas where the client could derive significant benefits. It is this attention to detail that distinguishes BAKER TILLY ZACCA from many other accounting firms.
Whilst it is necessary for auditors to maintain an appropriate level of independence, we encourage our staff to develop a relationship of mutual respect and understanding with senior management within the organization we are auditing. To benefit the client we endeavor to have the same staff particularly at senior level, on an audit from year to year, to improve efficiency.
At BAKER TILLY ZACCA we can assist clients in setting up the optimum business structure by establishing workable accounting systems and advising on reporting systems and the preparation of periodic or annual accounting.
Our audit approach can be illustrated as follows:
- Business Review
- Evaluate Risk and Review Internal Controls
- Determine Audit Strategy
- Assess Control Effectiveness
- Develop and Implement Testing Plan
- Evaluate Results and Review Financial Statements
- Audit Report on the Financial Statements
- Audit Reports to the Board and Management
Taxes Services
BAKER TILLY ZACCA offers a comprehensive range of tax services. We continually update our skill and knowledge and we maintain regular communication with the Lebanese Income Tax Authorities to ensure that we have the most current information on changes to the tax laws and regulations.
The misunderstanding of Lebanese tax legislation often results in differences of opinion between our clients and the revenue authorities. Our tax partners are equipped with the necessary skills and competence to take disputes through negotiation and argue their tax cases.
The preparation of taxation returns and statutory required information is an ever increasing and complex task. We provide for a large proportion of clients a technical review of tax returns they have prepared themselves and, prepare returns for others.
