Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act prohibits a CPA firm that audits a public company from providing most consulting services to that company. This includes services related to financial systems design and implementation, internal audit outsourcing, and management functions or human resources. The act also restricts certain non-audit services, such as bookkeeping and financial information systems design and implementation. However, the firm can still provide reviews of quarterly financial statements and tax services, including the preparation of corporate tax returns, as long as they are not involved in determining or recommending the tax treatment of any item on the financial statements.
