Audit
How much does a financial statement audit cost?
There is no single price for a financial statement audit — it depends on the size of the company, the number of transactions and the state of the books. Below: what really drives the cost and how to pay exactly as much as you should.
What the price depends on
We quote each audit individually, because the workload depends on several factors. The most important are the scale of operations (balance sheet total, revenue), the number and complexity of transactions, and how well-organised the books are.
- Company size — balance sheet total, revenue, headcount.
- Number of transactions and areas requiring audit work (inventory, receivables, provisions, consolidation).
- Quality of the books and documentation — the better organised, the less work.
- Timing — an audit at peak season (Q1) tends to cost more than one started earlier.
- The first year of cooperation is usually slightly more expensive (getting to know the company) than the following ones.
What the price covers
Our quote covers the entire audit performed by a certified auditor — from planning, through fieldwork, to the audit report. Beyond the opinion we share observations and recommendations, so the audit genuinely improves your finances rather than just closing a formality.
How not to overpay
- Start early — interim work before year-end spreads the cost and the effort.
- Organise the books and the documentation of key events before the audit.
- One team for accounting and audit shortens data handover.
- Ask for a quote upfront — with us you get a concrete offer with no hidden costs.
In short: share a few figures (balance sheet total, revenue, deadlines) — we will prepare a concrete audit quote, usually within 24 hours.
