The BARSON GROUP is proud to announce the publication of
"Divorce: The Accountant as Financial Expert"
by Kalman A. Barson, CPA/ABV, CFE, CFF
This is Kal's 6th text focusing on divorce related accounting services, including investigative accounting, business valuations, funds flow tracing and related issues. While its primary audience is fellow CPAs, as well as attorneys practicing family law and judges sitting in the family section of the court, it is written in such a fashion so that it would be readily understood by the general lay public. All royalties have been assigned to three charities devoted to helping women and children.

You Want To Pay Me How Much? Article Subtitle
When it comes to business valuation, putting aside that in some businesses there are very substantial non-recurring issues or heavy personal benefits taken out of the business, what is often the most significant normalization adjustment is in the area of reasonable compensation. Even where there are no perquisites running through the books, even where there is nothing unusual, nothing non-recurring or of any particular note, we virtually always have to make an adjustment for reasonable compensation, and often, it is a significant adjustment.

A Sociological Fable
Three accountants were in the urinal performing their morning constitutional. The first finishes and walks over to the sink to wash his hands. He then proceeds to dry his hands carefully. He uses paper towel after paper towel and ensures that every single spot of water on his hands is dried. Turning to the other two accountants he says, "CPAs are trained to be extremely thorough." The second finishes his task at the urinal and he proceeds to wash his hands. He uses a single paper towel and makes sure that he dries every drop of water from his hands using every available portion of the paper towel. He turns and says, "CPAs are not only trained to be extremely thorough, but also to be extremely efficient." The third accountant finishes and walks straight for the door. "Management accountants learn not to piss on their hands."
