RECORDS – REPORTS – PLANNING

Cash flow projections for Clearer Financial Planning

MAK Chartered Accountants L.L.C. provides Financial statement preparation support for businesses with defined reporting needs. Our Monthly management accounts service helps owners review results and financial positions at agreed intervals. Contact us to discuss the reports, records, and deadlines relevant to your business.

Free Consultation

Our Cash flow projections service helps you assess expected receipts and payments alongside your reporting needs. We review available records and agree the assumptions used for planning. You receive a clear explanation of the period covered, the inputs supplied, and the main areas of uncertainty.

Business owners need to understand both completed results and expected money movements. These reports answer different questions. We help you define a suitable scope so historical accounts, internal reports, and future estimates are presented with the right context.

Three reporting views, three different questions
HISTORICALWhat happened during the period?

Financial statements report completed activity under the applicable framework.

MANAGEMENTWhat needs attention now?

Internal reporting supports agreed reviews of results, balances, and performance.

FORWARD LOOKWhat cash may be available next?

Projections estimate future receipts and payments using stated assumptions.

Preparation is distinct from independent audit. Scope, period, and intended use should be clear for every report.

Cash flow projections with Supported Assumptions

We discuss the planning period and the decisions your forecast needs to support. The model can reflect expected customer receipts, supplier payments, payroll, rent, and finance commitments. Your team confirms the relevant timing and amounts before the assumptions are finalised.

Cash flow projections with Clear Review Dates

We can compare actual money movements with earlier estimates at agreed intervals. Changes in collection timing or planned spending may require an update. We explain material differences so management can assess their effect before approving further commitments.

A profitable period does not always produce an increase in available cash. Credit sales, stock purchases, debt payments, and capital spending affect timing. We assess these items without treating an estimated receipt as money already in the bank.

Financial statement preparation for an Agreed Reporting Period

We assess the records needed to prepare the agreed statements and supporting schedules. The engagement should identify the reporting entity, period, purpose, and applicable framework. These details help determine the presentation and disclosures required.

Financial statement preparation with Traceable Supporting Records

We work from the trial balance and relevant records, with explanations for material adjustments. Bank reconciliations, asset schedules, and customer or supplier balances may need attention before drafting. Missing evidence should be identified rather than hidden inside an unexplained figure.

A complete set under the applicable framework may include financial position, financial performance, cash flows, changes in equity, and notes, with relevant comparative information. An opening comparative financial position may also be required in specific circumstances. We confirm the actual requirements for the reporting period instead of treating a short summary as a complete set.

Monthly management accounts for Timely Business Reviews

We can agree a recurring pack that suits your management priorities. It may include results, balances, cash information, and comparisons with budgets or earlier periods. The format should help owners identify questions that need follow-up.

Monthly reports depend on timely records and an agreed closing process. We discuss the dates for submitting information and reviewing draft figures. Internal reporting is tailored to management needs and does not automatically provide statutory reporting or assurance.

Financial Audit Services in Dubai: A Separate Engagement

Preparation support and independent audit are different services. An audit requires its own terms, procedures, and reporting responsibilities. Independence and eligibility must be assessed before an audit appointment is accepted.

Preparing accounts does not by itself result in an audit opinion. If audit is needed, tell us the intended recipient and requirements early. We discuss the appropriate route without assuming that the same team can perform every role.

Financial Statements Services in Dubai for Different Users

We discuss whether the reports are intended for owners, lenders, investors, auditors, or another recipient. Each user may need different information or a particular reporting basis. Confirming the intended use helps avoid preparing an unsuitable pack.

Financial Statement Audit Services in Dubai

Where a separate audit is required, we can discuss preparation support and the information needed for the auditor’s work. Recipient acceptance depends on the relevant requirements and appointed auditor. We don’t promise that prepared statements will receive an unmodified opinion.

For a wider review of reporting processes, our accounting system assessment can be considered separately. Better processes can support timely records, but a process assessment is not an independent audit of the statements.

Our proposed work can connect agreed accounting schedules with the reporting outputs you need. We assess how balances are supported and which matters require management explanation. The engagement should distinguish preparation tasks from specialist accounting judgements that need further review.

Accounting & Financial Reporting Service in Dubai, UAE

We review the reporting currency, entity structure, and period before drafting. Group reporting may require separate work on intercompany balances and consolidation adjustments. These tasks should be expressly included where needed rather than assumed within a basic preparation fee.

Relevant standards and effective dates must be checked for the period being reported. The IFRS Foundation presentation resource explains the role of financial statement presentation. The applicable requirements, including any transition or early adoption, need assessment for each assignment.

Financial Reporting Services in Dubai, UAE

We agree how drafts will be reviewed and which matters management must confirm. Significant estimates, commitments, and related-party information may need supporting explanations. The final pack should reflect the information provided and the reporting requirements identified.

We can prepare schedules that help organise questions and outstanding items. This makes it easier to see which balances still need evidence. It does not remove management’s responsibility for the records, judgements, and financial statements.

If recurring interpretation and planning need more support, our finance leadership service can be discussed through a separate scope. Regular advisory meetings are not automatically included in every statement preparation engagement.

Audited Financial Statement Providers in Dubai: Check the Requirements

Confirm the recipient’s requirements before appointing a provider. Ask about the reporting framework, auditor eligibility, independence, scope, and submission format. A financial pack becomes audited through a separate completed audit engagement, not through a preparation label.

The IAASB resource on compilation and review engagements distinguishes these engagements from audit. We discuss the service you actually require and explain whether assurance is included.

Professional Accounting and Financial Reporting Services

We assess the record quality, reporting complexity, and work required before providing a proposal. Multiple entities, incomplete reconciliations, or complex transactions can affect the effort needed. Fees and timing should reflect the agreed deliverables and information dependencies.

Our team can discuss a clear division of tasks with your accountant or finance staff. You should know who supplies records, approves adjustments, and reviews drafts. A defined process reduces uncertainty about the information needed at each stage.

Where approval and reconciliation procedures need closer attention, our financial control review support can be considered separately. Preparation, control review, and independent audit have different objectives.

Top financial statements services in Dubai: Compare Scope and Evidence

Assess the proposed work, relevant experience, reporting terms, and information requirements before appointment. Ask how missing records and important estimates will be handled. This supplied phrase is a comparison topic, not an independently verified ranking claim.

Our Cash flow projections work can support a separate forward-looking view alongside agreed historical reports. We state the assumptions and identify expected money movements as estimates. Future projections must not be presented as audited historical cash flows.

Our Cash flow projections consultation begins with your reporting period, planning needs, and available accounts. Share the intended users and any deadline so we can discuss a suitable proposal. We don’t guarantee funding approval or a particular financial result.

Discuss Your Financial Reporting Needs

Records to Prepare for Your Reporting Engagement

  • Trial balance, general ledger, and prior financial statements.
  • Bank statements and completed reconciliation schedules.
  • Customer and supplier balances with ageing details.
  • Fixed asset records, loan schedules, and key contracts.
  • Relevant tax schedules and supporting calculations.
  • Forecast assumptions, expected receipts, and payment commitments.

We confirm the final document list after reviewing your circumstances. Some assignments may require additional records or specialist input. We explain material gaps and discuss their effect on the proposed completion schedule.

Five Answers About Statement Preparation and Planning

Are projected cash figures the same as a cash flow statement?

No. A projection estimates future receipts and payments using stated assumptions. A historical cash flow statement reports cash movements for a completed period under the applicable reporting framework. We identify the period and purpose of each report.

Does preparing statements mean that they are audited?

No. Preparation does not provide an independent audit opinion. An audit requires a separate engagement and appropriate independence and eligibility checks. Management remains responsible for the financial statements and the underlying information.

What records should our company provide?

We usually request the trial balance, ledgers, bank statements, reconciliations, asset schedules, loan details, and customer and supplier balances. Prior statements and relevant contracts may also be needed. We confirm the final list after reviewing your reporting needs.

Can you prepare monthly reports for management?

Yes. We can agree a monthly reporting pack, submission deadlines, review meetings, and responsibilities. The scope may include financial position, results, cash information, and agreed comparisons. Internal reports are not automatically a complete set of general-purpose financial statements.

How can we request a fee and schedule?

Contact MAK through the consultation form or WhatsApp +971 50 276 2132. Share your reporting period, entity structure, available records, and intended report users. We assess the work and information gaps before proposing fees and timing.
