What Is a CPA Compilation Report (Notice to Reader)?

A CPA compilation report, also called a Notice to Reader (NTR), is a set of financial statements prepared by a licensed Chartered Professional Accountant using information provided by the business owner. The CPA compiles the data into a standard format with a compilation engagement report attached. The CPA does not audit or review the numbers. The report states that the financial statements were compiled from management-provided information without audit or review assurance.

Banks, landlords, investors and franchise systems in Scarborough require compilation reports because they need financial statements in a standardized CPA-prepared format. Internal QBO or Xero reports are not accepted. The bank needs a signed CPA report with the proper engagement language before approving a loan. We prepare compilation reports for Scarborough businesses from $250 with same-week turnaround.

CPA Compilation Report (Notice to Reader) in Scarborough

CSRS 4200 compilation engagement financial statements for Scarborough corporations. Built from your books, tied straight into your T2, at AFFORDABLE flat-fee pricing.

1

Trial Balance Compilation

We close the prior year, roll forward opening balances and produce a trial balance that ties out before a single statement is drawn.

  • Close prior year and roll forward opening balances so the trial balance agrees to last year's compiled financial statements.
  • Clear suspense, undeposited-funds and unreconciled accounts in your QBO or Xero data so no placeholder balance flows into the statements.
  • Verify bank, loan and credit card balances on the trial balance agree to year-end statements.
  • Confirm the trial balance is in balance and retained earnings tie to prior year plus current net income before adjusting entries.
  • Deliver the cleaned trial balance as the foundation for an accurate compilation.
2

Notice to Reader Report

Under CSRS 4200, we prepare statements that meet the current standard with the required basis-of-accounting disclosure.

  • Prepare the compilation under CSRS 4200, which replaced the old Section 9200 NTR and requires the basis of accounting disclosed in a note.
  • State the chosen basis of accounting (cash or accrual) directly in the statements, the disclosure CSRS 4200 makes mandatory.
  • Attach the compilation engagement report identifying management's responsibility and confirming no assurance is expressed.
  • Confirm with the lender or known third-party user before issuing, since CSRS 4200 requires the statements to suit the intended user.
  • Issue a professional, CPA-signed Notice to Reader at an AFFORDABLE flat fee.
3

Adjusting Journal Entries

The entries between your raw books and the final statements are where accuracy is made.

  • Post depreciation at year-end to align book amortization with CCA pools on the T2 Schedule 8.
  • Record accrued liabilities, prepaid expenses and unearned revenue so income and expense fall in the correct period.
  • Book the corporate income tax provision so the income statement reflects after-tax results.
  • Reconcile and adjust the shareholder loan account to its true year-end balance.
  • Document each adjusting entry so the path from trial balance to statement is fully traceable.
4

Year-End Working Papers

The working-paper file is what stands behind the numbers. Structured, defensible, upgradeable.

  • Build a lead-schedule working-paper file supporting every material balance on the compiled statements.
  • Include account reconciliations, CCA continuity schedule and tax provision calculation.
  • Structure the file so a future CSRS 4400 review engagement or assurance audit can build on it directly.
  • Retain working papers for the professional retention period.
  • Deliver an organized file that protects you and keeps future engagements cost-effective.
5

T2 Corporate Tax Integration

Compiled statements and the T2 are one continuous process, not two jobs.

  • Carry the compiled balance sheet and income statement onto Schedule 100 and Schedule 125 through matched GIFI coding.
  • Reconcile compiled net income to taxable income on Schedule 1, applying add-backs and deductions.
  • Tie the tax provision booked in the statements to the actual tax calculated on the T2.
  • Prepare the compilation and T2 as one engagement. No duplicated work, no reconciliation gap.
  • Bundle the statements and T2 at one flat, AFFORDABLE fee with no hourly billing.
6

Multi-Year NTR Packages

A single year rarely satisfies a lender or buyer. We prepare a consistent multi-year package.

  • Prepare two- and three-year comparative compiled statements on a consistent basis of accounting.
  • Restate prior years onto the same CSRS 4200 basis where earlier statements used the retired NTR format.
  • Assemble the multi-year set in the format banks expect for mortgage and credit applications.
  • Reconcile each year's statements to the T2 filed for that year across all periods.
  • Deliver the full multi-year package at a flat, transparent fee with no surprise charges.

Frequently Asked Notice to Reader Questions

What is the difference between a Notice to Reader and a Review Engagement?
A Notice to Reader (compilation under CSRS 4200) provides compiled financial statements without any level of assurance. The CPA compiles the numbers from management-provided data into a standard format and attaches a compilation engagement report. A Review Engagement provides limited (negative) assurance, meaning the CPA performs inquiries and analytical procedures. NTRs are ideal for most Scarborough small businesses that need financial statements for bank loans under $500,000, commercial leases or franchise renewals. A Review costs $2,000 to $5,000+ and is typically required only for larger loans or when investors demand a higher level of credibility. CPA Compilation Report →
Do banks accept Notice to Reader statements?
Yes. Every major bank in Scarborough including TD, RBC, BMO, Scotiabank and CIBC accepts CPA-compiled Notice to Reader statements for small business loans, lines of credit, commercial mortgages and lease applications. The bank wants to see financial statements in a standardized CPA-prepared format with a signed compilation engagement report. Internal QuickBooks or Xero reports are not accepted. We confirm the exact format and requirements with your specific bank branch before we issue the report.
How long does a Notice to Reader take?
For existing bookkeeping clients with current books, we deliver the completed compilation report in 3 to 5 business days. For non-clients who provide a clean trial balance and supporting documents, turnaround is 5 to 7 business days. If bookkeeping cleanup is required before we can compile, the timeline extends to 7 to 14 business days depending on the volume and condition of the records. We also offer a 48-hour rush service for existing bookkeeping clients at an additional $150, subject to availability.
Can you prepare multi-year Notice to Reader statements?
Yes. Banks and lenders in Scarborough frequently require two to three years of comparative compiled financial statements for loan applications, commercial mortgages and business acquisitions. We prepare the multi-year package on a consistent CSRS 4200 basis of accounting so the lender can compare each year without restating figures. Each year's statements are reconciled to the T2 corporate tax return filed for that year. Multi-year pricing starts at $400 per year.
Is a Notice to Reader required for T2 corporate tax filing?
CRA does not legally require a compilation report to be attached to the T2 corporate tax return. However, having CPA-compiled financial statements that tie directly to the return provides documentation and support if CRA asks questions. The compiled balance sheet flows onto Schedule 100, the income statement flows onto Schedule 125, and the net income reconciles to taxable income on Schedule 1. We prepare the compilation and T2 as one integrated engagement starting at $650.
How much does a Notice to Reader cost in Scarborough?
For existing bookkeeping clients with current books, the compilation report starts at $250. For non-clients who provide clean records, the fee starts at $500. If bookkeeping cleanup is needed, the fee starts at $800. Interim financial statements start at $200. Multi-year packages are priced at $400 per year. The T2 + NTR bundle starts at $650. Rush 48-hour turnaround adds $150. All fees are flat-fee with no hourly billing and no surprise charges. Know Your Exact Fee →
What documents do I need to provide?
If you are an existing bookkeeping client, you do not need to provide anything additional. We already have access to your QBO or Xero data. For non-clients, we require: trial balance as at the fiscal year-end, bank statements for all accounts for the fiscal year, loan and credit card statements showing year-end balances, inventory listing (if applicable), shareholder loan details and transactions for the year, and any specific requirements from the bank or recipient requesting the report.
Do you have a physical office in Scarborough?
Yes. Our Scarborough office is located at 24 Clementine Square, Scarborough, ON M1G 2V7. Available for in-person meetings. We also serve Scarborough businesses virtually via QBO, Xero and TaxDome. Financial statements delivered as PDF. Virtual meetings via Zoom or phone. Scarborough CPA Services →
Is a Notice to Reader the same as a compilation report?
Yes. Notice to Reader (NTR) is the older term that was used under the previous Canadian standard (Section 9200). CPA Canada replaced it with the compilation engagement under CSRS 4200 (Canadian Standard on Related Services). The service is the same: a CPA compiles financial statements from management-provided data without providing any assurance. Banks, landlords, lawyers and business brokers in Scarborough use both terms interchangeably. CPA Compilation Report →
