Steve is the owner and principal of Stephen Ackroyd Chartered Professional Accountant. Like many other CPA’s out there, he provides a complete list of accounting services for individuals and corporations. Where he differs – and an important part of the value he provides for his clients – is in helping them understand what the pages of numbers churned out by accounting software mean to them.

There’s a story behind those numbers and Steve helps his clients understand it. Before he can do that, he needs to understand them. He takes great pride in learning as much as he can about their specific situations because
everyone’s position is different and that dramatically impacts how to optimize their personal and business finances.

As he provides accounting services to his clients, Steve spends time with them breaking down what it all means into easily understood and easily digestible pieces. The advice he provides is straightforward and actionable – He’s not out to impress himself or his clients with fancy terminology or complex accounting theory. He removes the stigma and intimidation from corporate and personal finances and empowers his clients to make the best decisions possible.

– Personal Taxation, including small businesses
– Corporate Taxation
– Trust Taxation
– Year-end Reporting (Compilation Engagements)
– CRA Audit Support
