Statement on Standards for Accounting and Review Services No. 19,<br />
effective in 2011, replaced and/or revised almost every one of its<br />
predecessors, resulting in the most significant change in financial<br />
statement presentation since 1978. This year's Gear Up Accounting<br />
seminar is special: the focus is on you, your practice's quality control<br />
system, and what all this means to your client. In addition to an indepth<br />
discussion of SSARS No. 19 and SSARS No. 20, other major<br />
topics include:<br />
• Professional Ethics: the basic requirements and the most recent<br />
interpretations<br />
• OCBOA versus GAAP: how both banks and clients can receive cost<br />
effective yet useful statements<br />
• Practice Management: faced with the new requirements, should you<br />
move to value billing, rather than hourly billing? If so, how do you<br />
make the transition?<br />
• Nonprofits and Homeowners Associations: what's the appropriate<br />
presentation now?<br />
• Peer Review: using a case study approach, learn what peer reviewers<br />
look for and how you can be prepared and pass!<br />
• GAAP Update: when does Fair Value Accounting replace historical<br />
cost; when do variable interest entities require financial statement<br />
consolidation; what are the new leasing standards, the changes<br />
revenue recognition concepts, the tests for impairment, and how does<br />
each impact disclosure on OCBOA statements?<br />
Add to that, issues related to: interim financial statements<br />
and reports; the consideration of fraud in financial statement<br />
presentation; analytical procedures; cash flow statements; required<br />
financial statement disclosures; specialty issues relevant to the<br />
main street accountant…and you have a solid two-day accounting<br />
seminar that will satisfy the need of both the sole practitioner and<br />
the mid-sized firm. This course is also available in a one-day version<br />
that addresses much of the above but in less depth.<br />

8 Cpe Credits | auditing | basiC | Live: 1 daY, $204*<br />
This course is a forum for the discussion and implementation of<br />
techniques for the detection of fraud, the control of fraud, and the<br />
implementation of fraud prevention tools for the main street client.<br />
The subject matter provides practical guidance to help the "Mom<br />
& Pop" client and the mid-sized client prevent the misclassification<br />
of financial statement transactions and/or the misappropriation of<br />
assets by employees—and, perhaps, by management itself. Learn<br />
to what extent the accountant is held responsible for failure to<br />
assist the client in the prevention and detection of fraud.<br />

funding of sub-trusts. There is something for everyone from the<br />
novice to the seasoned practitioner. The course also explores the<br />
decisions required in handling clients’ estates and trusts from<br />
beginning to close, including tax elections available, distributing<br />
assets to beneficiaries, and filing all applicable tax forms. We<br />
analyze Form 1041 (including all topics listed under the 1041 course<br />

“The Gear Up 1040 manual is a great reference tool to use during tax<br />
season, when I don't have the time to spend looking and reading about<br />
technical items. It is very practical, easy to read, and flows with the tax<br />
return. The manual does a great job of making it easier to interpret<br />
issues so I can make a timely decision and also advise clients on<br />
questions they might have. I also appreciate being able to show clients<br />
the charts that are included; the charts are excellent to look at as they<br />
clarify the more technical tax issues.<br />
Plus, I like the fact that the manual expands on many practical issues<br />
such as social security and retirement. These are areas that I get<br />
questions from clients all the time, and the manual is a great reference<br />
source to find these answers. Lots of your competitors’ manuals don't<br />
address some of these much-needed topics in too great of detail.”<br />

“Gear Up locations are terrific! I’ve been<br />
an accountant for 39 years, and I really<br />
like being able to plan vacation time<br />
around completing my CPE.”<br />
—William Berry<br />
“I’ve been a CPA for over 20 years, and<br />
I like Gear Up Seminars because I can<br />
count on the information being current<br />
and keeping me updated on<br />
tax changes.”<br />
—John Coffey<br />
"After 20 years in practice I attended a<br />
Gear-Up 1040 seminar for the first time<br />
in 2008.<br />
I can easily say the Gear Up 1040<br />
seminar was the best of its kind I've<br />
attended, and I've attended many.<br />
The instructors were very<br />
knowledgeable and experienced and<br />
gave real-world examples from their<br />
many years in practice.<br />
There was an emphasis on tax-planning<br />
and the text for the course was so good I<br />
referred to it all tax season.<br />
I highly recommend this seminar to<br />
other tax professionals."<br />

"I really like my Checkpoint Learning<br />

lets me know conveniently in one<br />
place how close I am to meeting<br />
my CPE requirements for multiple<br />
licenses. There is a great variety of<br />
course topics, delivery methods and<br />

and the quality of the courses is very<br />
high."<br />
- James O. (Joe) Bailey, CPA, EA<br />
“Thank you for recommending<br />
the Checkpoint Learning Premier<br />
CPE Package. I have been using it<br />
frequently the last two months. I am<br />
very pleased to discover the courses<br />
are meaningful and useful. The ‘selfstudy’<br />
courses are very substantial,<br />
and the ‘live webinar’ courses are very<br />
enjoyable and loaded with content. I<br />
appreciate not having to travel (in or<br />
out of town) spending extra money<br />
and time.”<br />
—Ian H. Edwards<br />
“Being in public accounting, it is<br />
difficult to find the time to attend<br />
many live seminars, therefore I use<br />
self-study formats whenever possible.<br />
Checkpoint Learning by far is the best.<br />
I no longer have to track what courses<br />
I have taken and when I took them. It<br />
is all done for me through Checkpoint<br />
Learning. If I need to access my course<br />
completion certificates, all I need to<br />
do is sign on to my online account and<br />
there it is under the Activity History<br />
tab. Convenient and easy to use.”<br />

In January, 2012, the AICPA issued<br />
a document entitled, Clarity Project:<br />
Update and Final Product. The goal<br />
of the project is to make existing U.S.<br />
auditing standards easier to apply<br />
and comprehend and to converge<br />
U.S. GAAS with International<br />
Standards on Auditing issued by the<br />
International Auditing and Assurance<br />
Standards Board. This course explains<br />

auditing standards by the Auditing<br />

5 CPE Credits | Taxes | Basic<br />
This legislation, known as the Foreign<br />
Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA),<br />
is a withholding tax imposed upon<br />
withholdable payments of U.S.<br />
investors in foreign financial and<br />
other types of foreign entities. These<br />
are very onerous provisions and<br />
will impose significant information<br />
reporting requirements on foreign<br />
financial institutions with respect<br />
to U.S. accounts, withholding tax<br />
payments, documentation, and<br />
reporting requirements. To the<br />
extent of noncompliance, the U.S.<br />
tax cost could be 30% of the gross<br />
withholdable payment received<br />
by a U.S. person. In order to be in<br />
compliance, tax advisors for both<br />
U.S. persons with deposits abroad<br />
and foreign financial institutions will<br />
require a basic understanding of the<br />
new legislation.<br />
