Course Description

Course Description

Dr. Robert Minniti presents crucial insights in this CPE nano-learning course about navigating the complexities of year-end accounting closures. He emphasizes the need for meticulousness during this process, advising against rushing it and highlighting the importance of thorough transaction recording. The course provides a comprehensive view of critical elements such as account reconciliations, accrual management, inventory evaluation, and the validation of fixed asset values.

Minniti stresses the value of using checklists, especially for smaller businesses that might not engage in year-end closings frequently. Drawing from personal experience, he underscores the risks of premature closures and stresses the importance of robust internal controls to avoid errors or fraudulent activities. The Nano-learning course also emphasizes the necessity of conducting analytical procedures and ratio analysis to ensure the accuracy and reliability of financial statements before finalizing the year-end close.

Please be aware that Nano-learning might not be universally recognized by all state boards. If unsure about your state board's acceptance of Nano-learning, it's advisable to seek clarification from them or visit the NASBA registry for further information.
