Terms of Engagement
Standard Terms of Engagement
We compile all financial information for all clients in accordance with our Standard Terms of Engagement.
A compilation is limited primarily to the collection, classification and summarisation of financial information supplied by the client. A compilation does not involve the verification of that information. We do not carry out any audits or reviews on financial reports, nor otherwise attempt to verify the accuracy or completeness of the information and therefore, neither we nor any of our employees accept any responsibility for the accuracy of the information from which the financial reports are prepared.
All financial reports are prepared at the request of and for the purpose of our client only and neither we nor any of our employees accept any responsibility on any ground whatsoever, including liability in negligence, to any other person.
I/We give Makes Cents Ltd and their employees permission as my Accountant to access any information held by the Inland Revenue Department of New Zealand or other organisations in order for them to undertake their duties as my Tax Agent to furnish GST, and all tax types. I understand MakesCents Ltd obtains information from IRD by phone, Fax and online. In accordance with the Privacy Act (1993) I authorise any persons or company to give information as may be required in response to credit inquires.
MakesCents Ltd has the right to charge interest on overdue accounts at the rate of 1.5% interest per month.
If the client defaults in payment of invoice when due, the client shall indemnify the seller from and against all cost including collection and legal cost or attempted collection of the defaulted amount calculated on a solicitor and own client basis.
