Farmer & Company, P.A. was established in 1989 to provide quality, personalized service to all of their business and individual clients. Our services are geared to improving the efficiency and economics of a client's business operation.

We are business-oriented professionals who relate to the problems and experiences that our clients face in the business world. Management services are a natural outgrowth of our auditing, accounting, and tax services. Drawing upon our experiences in the business community and continuing professional development, we are able to offer suggestions to improve the operating techniques, cost efficiencies, and profit potential.

Our commitment to audit quality is an integral part of our firm's background. Farmer & Company, P.A. is well suited to provide its services to companies that need an audit due to the specific requirements of stockholders, contractual commitments, regulatory agencies, or board of directors information.

Through intensive continuing education programs, our auditors remain constantly abreast of industry trends while continuing to enhance their educational levels with technical programs. Our audit procedures are further advanced through the use of sophisticated audit software and sampling techniques.

The knowledge and insights developed during the audit enable us to provide services that go beyond reporting on financial statements. We are very much involved with our clients' overall financial accounting policies, procedures, organization, cash flow projections, cost controls, and inventory management.

Our client accounting services go beyond the preparation of financial statements and tax returns. We provide a total financial picture for our clients, assisting them in formulating operating policies and procedures, installing practical accounting systems, and assisting with long-range planning.

Farmer & Company, P.A. also maintains year-round record keeping for many clients that includes all accounting functions, financial statements, payroll records, and sales taxes. We may be engaged on a monthly basis or quarterly basis, as required, and will review our findings with management. Our vast business experience and know-how are always available to our clients to help them improve their operations.

Tax services are an integral part of Farmer & Company, P.A.?s accounting practice. We are involved in every facet of taxation, including all aspects of corporate, partnership, and individual income tax planning and return preparation. Because of the nature of change and complexity in the tax field, we emphasize timely planning and counseling, as well as accurate reporting and compliance.

We schedule and control the filing of returns required by the various tax authorities, attend tax examinations and hearings, research tax consequences of specific events, and review work closely with clients in structuring business transactions.

Our staff remains abreast of the constantly changing tax laws through in-house seminars and other professional education. We also maintain a large library of technical tax publications.

We are a member of the AICPA Peer Review Program. Peer review sets certified public accountants apart from other professions and tells the public that certified public accountants are dedicated to upholding the standards of our profession. The AICPA requires members who do audits, reviews or compilations to have a peer review every three years. We have undergone several Peer Reviews, and have received an unqualified report on each review.

We are always looking for opportunities to help you grow financially. We take a personal interest in your success and work to establish a long-term relationship with our clients.
