Employee Benefit Plan Audits

We understand the complexities of pension plan auditing and the importance of smooth interaction amongst the auditor, employer, the custodian and the plan administrator. We have experience in auditing 401 (k) plans, VEBA, and welfare benefit plans. Our Audit Partners have over 30 years of combined experience in auditing benefit plans. Our clients benefit from the personal in-depth and quality service we provide. We have experience in dealing with and resolving issues with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Labor (DOL). We have extensive experience in the following areas:
  • Agreed-upon procedures
  • Auditing employee benefit plans
  • Evaluating internal controls
  • Financial statement disclosures
  • Forensic accounting and auditing
  • Fraud auditing
Since 401 (k) audits are required for the majority of retirement plans in excess of one hundred active participants at the beginning of any plan year, we are well versed in working with these plans as well as all the supplemental schedules and specific reporting required by ERISA, DOL and Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We understand the qualification requirements and are aware of issues with prohibited transactions, deemed distributions and reporting failures:
  • Contingent Benefits
  • Hardship Distributions
  • Loans
  • Partnership Issues (CODA)
  • Prohibited Transactions
  • Section 415
  • Top-Heavy Requirements
  • Violations relating to Distributions
  • Violations relating to Testing
