The benefits of accrual vs
cash-based accounting

DID YOU KNOW?

You can still use cash-based accounting for your taxes but use accrual-accounting for reporting purposes so your information is more accurate.

Understand how your business is actually performing

Many Founders and CEOs gauge business performance on top-line revenue, or the bank balance. Cash-based accounting only considers the inflows and outflows of your bank and credit cards, nothing more. This is an unreliable performance indicator, whereas accrual accounting shows you what business activities are most (and least) profitable. AURA uses accrual accounting practices to unscramble your financials so you can stop relying on instinct and start relying on accurate data.

Take your business to the next level

When you don’t have solid financial data, you’re flying blind. Elevate your business to the next level with a strategic partner who understands where you’re vulnerable, and how to overcome those challenges. Whether you’re looking to scale, secure growth funding, or prepare for acquisition in the future, AURA ensures that your company’s financials are clean, professional, and prepared with the utmost care.

Talk to a human and not a recording

Accountants by nature are introverts. We’re not. We pride ourselves on excellent communication and actually picking up the phone when you call. We also take the time to explain your financials in terms you can understand so there’s no guesswork or unnecessary back and forth. Ultimately, our business is built on long-term partnerships, with no long-term contracts. We earn your trust…and keep it.

Save cash without sacrificing quality

For most small businesses, controller-level accounting shouldn't be a full-time role. At the same time, you require top-tier talent to ensure accuracy in your numbers. AURA serves your high-level financial needs for a fraction of the cost of a full-time controller or CFO. Our expertise and collaborative team model allows us to be ultra-efficient. Plus, there is flat-fee monthly billing with no surprises.

The best decision I've made

“Hiring AURA has proved to be one of the best business decisions that I have made. My company is too small to afford a dedicated department and yet large enough to require regular accounting and finance expertise. It's absolutely essential that I have not only accurate accounting information but also a finance team that I can count on for solid business council”
