Mapping in for the New Year 2015

Mapping in for the New Year 2015

The Key Points was originally the Launch point for Our Lines at DCarsonCPA as a centralized line to follow the points of updates where Financials and new regulations were meeting at that point.

We built strong skills with the lines for points to support Compliance and Legal Workflows in compliment to Financials and the needs on Strong Controls for Risk Management in the Financial and other sectors.

The journey we undertook to learn  about ALL of the points where Financials, Legal, Economics, IT and Communications meet for Industry, Non Profits, NGOs, Governments (Local, Multi-State, National and Global) was a rewrding one with many different directions and a substantial amount of resources and energy placed to Research working with Financials, Laws, Rules, Economics, Statistics and some to the best minds in Industry, Non Profit, NGO and Government lines to fill in the Gaps on Our Awareness on Calls, In Journals, On Research and mossaic sourced Analysis. We worked from a perspective of learning more about the many points where Financials are at work to help on needs on growth in the Economy.

Through the key points grew our interests and commitments to find ways to help Entities succeed more on growth with efficiency, and to find ways to help on the Economy where Our skills connect.

These days you can find many of the key points as follows:

DCarsonCPA by LOBs on Services

DCarsonCPA on Linkedin:

DCarsonCPA on Entity and Cross Sector Lines (on the Economy and Financials)

Covering Global and Domestic Economics, Financials, Legal Support Services, Project Management and Business Analysis (w/ IT Data and Cyber Security Lines along with Communications, Data, Research and Analysis), Core Financials, Tax Services lines and more. Our Business Model is based on Services, Research and Outreach to help on the Economy, Efficiency, Growth and Improvements as evolving on the pathway of Global Decision Making Research and the cross functional skills are also well suited for Risk Management and Deep Support lines to Economic and Policy Research as we grow to include Economic and Legal skills to a strong base of now 20+ years on Financials.

We trained up for the Leadership lines for Boards, Directors, Senior Management and the Staff Development points for the Industry lines and for the Executive, Legislative and Judicial points on Financials to optimally understand the moving parts of Industry, Government, Non Profits,NGOs and Individuals / Families and Communities working together in the Economy as we evolved a reduction template of Global Decision Making Research for most any needs where we meet on Services, Research and Outreach.

The Result of which is strong problem solving skills for on demand needs and a very large ability to help on challenges where cross sector lines meet Economics, Statistics, Financials, Laws,Rules and Governance and the IT lines help for Services, Research and Outreach.

We can help on Strategic needs at the overview level or map to specific lines of needs in more detail depending on Client needs on demand.

Tax Season 2015 is expected to be a challenging year based on IRS needs and budgets. Fortunately we began on the Tax lines several years back and mapped the strong lines of comprehensive research to be an Asset to Clients in times like these and we can help on Entity and Individual / Family lines of needs with strong skills on Tax Services. We've built strong skills through daily lines of research as overlays to a strong foundation of core skills in CFO/ Controlling and Lean Management Consulting and the net result is many a way to help on needs through Financials, Tax, Compliance and Managerial Accounting skills. The mapped in overlay is deep Economic, Legal, IT, Financial, Finance and Societal Research skills focused on the value of Financials to needs across sectors and those are skills that can help at many a varied point in the Economy for Leadership lines of Entity needs and related lines on Project Services and Research.]

A Quick Check in - What's New.

It's hard to believe that is already July 16th, 2011 but then again with all that has been happening we wouldn't have been suprised if more time had passed. If you have been following us on twitter you know that we have been actively following the daily conversation and promoting constructive action on US Jobs, the Deficits and Debts, as all are key points that urgently require attention. We see that the downside of a twitter driven campaign is that it's on the dashboard and then it goes away, the upside is better access is to timely, relevant information for decision makers.

We have been posting periodic links and updates to Our Facebook page which is more a lasting notification point on Our Interests and recent updates that doesn't refresh from moment to moment. The missing link here is Our Blog posts as a lasting map to Our discovery process on Broad ranging Business and Individual Accounting, Tax, Regulatory and Governmental Accounting and Finance. While the process may not yet be permanently documented here - the knowledge growth is permanent and our capacity to support our Clients has only grown through Research - we connect with you on your Industry and your Business and have deep insight to the places where your Industry and Business connect with our governments at the Federal, State and Local levels through regulation including taxation, compliance, incentives and more. This is an added advantage beyond our obvious ability to support Clients on FASB - US GAAP, IASB - IFRS, GIPS, Internal Controls, Business Analysis, Accounting Operations and Systems, Legal support and more, and adds to our profile as Strategic Business partners with Depth and Efficiency.

In the weeks ahead we will be more completely integrating Our Blog into our Informational Resource flow so stay tuned with us here as we continue to bring you more as the CPA and Business Consulting Solution that walks with you in the Economy, on Industry, on Business, at the Intersection of Regulation and Finance, considering the many ways we can help you on services where you are. We also hope to keep us all a little better connected at the points where our Government interacts with us in Finances on your Business, in Taxes and more. We encourage the involvement of our fellow Financial Professionals in the design of better dashboard metrics for Effective Financial Legislation to maximize the utility of government spending on services and impart to you that the true equation that works in Public Finance is not a "balanced budget" it is:

Government Expenditures = Tax Inflows - Interest Factor on Debt - X Factor Debt Reduction; where we work together and solve for X.

We need a Strong National Economy that is built on US Agriculture, Manufacturing and Services, we need to consider the dialogue on Energy and to maintain Our Education, Scientific and Health Professions in ways that make sense Economically.

On the Micro Economy, your Business and your Individual Finances we are here to support you on Accounting, Taxes, Advisory, Private Company Audits and Consulting. Available in many States and locations and ready to provide remote support where you need it. Check in with us when you need us for corresponding services, you can find us at http://www.dcarsoncpa.com/ .

Securities and Exchange Commission Acts 1933, 1934 + 1940s Investment Acts - We are here to Assist on related Accounting, Compliance and Reporting needs.

US CFR (Executive Branch Rules) Title 17 Commodity and  Securities Exchange Ch. II Part 210 - Form and Content of and Requirements for FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANY ACT OF 1935, INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OF 1940, and ENERGY POLICY AND CONSERVATION ACT OF 1975.  Is a key source for SEC Regulatory Reporting Accounting Rules dealing with Qualifications of Accountants, Audits, Financial Statements and Elements thereof. We are most interested at this point in Elements of this section of Executive Branch Rules for their specific application to Accountants and to the Financial Services Industry.  We are for the time present focused on SEC Acts 1933, 1934 and the Investment Acts 1940 for their relevancy to our experience in Financial Services work and areas of forward interest.

The SEC Acts of 1933 + 1934 deal with initial issuance and subsequent sales of Securities in Financial Markets and Related Requirements - a substantial core of Market Related Accounting, Reporting and other related requirements for Financial Services Accountants covering IPOs, Capital Makets in Equity and Debt Securities, Broker-Dealers and more. We will go in depth with all we see in so far as it pertains to CPAs or Related Services. With prior Hands on Experience in the role providing FINOP / Net Capital Rule Focus Reporting under 15c3-1 and a ready status to include 15c3-3.

The SEC Acts of 1940 pertaining to Investment Companies and Investment Advisers are key considerations for Asset Management Firms and Research / Advisory Firms. As a CPA Practise with a close connection to the Asset Management Industry through experience and expertise, it makes sense to spend some time in this specific area.

We connect with core Accounting Rules under FASB US GAAP Accounting Standards Codifications in this case focusing on Industry Topic 940 - Financial Services - Broker-Dealers and  Industry Standards Topic 946 - Financial Services Investment Companies. In the Case of Broker-Dealers we must consider GAAP, the SEC Laws and FINRA Rules to be comprehensive. For Investment Management Firms the Same in GAAP, SEC Laws and FINRA rules. Registration requirements for Investment Advisors (while currently under review at Law) being covered at the Federal or State Level depending on Assets and introducing the next level of regulation required to be observed at the State Level.

Why not limit the consideration of this at the Doors of  US GAAP?, it is not possible to limit this analysis at the Doors of US GAAP because Laws and Rules play a large part in Financial Services Businesses and to truly be effective means to understand this and be aware of this. Yes we are limited to the role of Public Accounting or Consulting that is driven by Accounting and Reporting - but the objective is to be comprehensively tuned in to the many Laws and Rules that pertain to Financial Services and other Businesses to best support them, in Accounting, In Tax, In Regulation and Operations and in so doing we reach our greatest value added capacity when you combine this awareness with Accounting Skills, Research Expertise and in our specific pathway for relative continuing education on one of the key Industries we support the Asset Management Industry.

We are a CPA Service and Business Consulting Solution with specific area expertise with Broker-Dealers and Asset Management Firms and experience that includes prior work from the Controllers End interfacing with NYSE Coordination, FINRA and the SEC - work specifically focused on Regulatory Reporting, Accounting and Financials. For this very reason we can be a strong selection for Businesses with related needs. Stay tuned with us here in our blog and we will continue to expand on the related theme, but at this point you are sufficiently aware that we are here for you on related service needs.
