My practice is mostly based around tax preparation services and outsourced CFO work. A potential client called me yesterday explaining that she wants to buy a local franchise and she was provided with prior three years of tax returns. The returns are schedule C so I assume the owner is either sole proprietor or LLC. She needs someone to review these and determine if the asking price of $350k is reasonable, low, high, etc...
Is there anything to be aware of in terms of professional standards or liability? I am not registered for peer review but I don't believe this falls into assurance category, and I don't think this would require any type of report.
