Preparation, Compilation, & Review Engagements & Reports

Preparation, compilation, and review engagements refer to services offered by accountants to assist businesses in presenting financial statements without providing assurance on the statements' accuracy.

Review engagements require the accountant to perform analytical procedures and inquiries to provide limited assurance that no material modifications should be made to the financial statements.
