On the contrary – if the client has a vision or a clear vision of where they want to go, the accountant can think about it early and offer solutions that support your goals. ## Involve the accountant early in the purchasing process Often, the accountant is only involved when the transaction has been made and the consequences need to be dealt with. In fact, it is much more sensible to discuss things before: - buying or selling a company - acquiring a stake - making a major investment - launching a new business direction or service - changing the auditor Early involvement helps to assess tax liabilities, cash flows and risks and can prevent unexpected additional costs. **Share information – better solutions are born when thinking together** If something unexpected arises in the company – for example, an exceptional transaction, an accidentally provided service or unusual income – it is sensible to talk about it right away.
