First off, SPI already HAS a relationship with a CPA. Please google for cpa site:spi-inc.org. The board also authorized this while you were on it. In short, between our legal counsel and bookeepeing firm, plus that CPA, we have everything taken care of that a CPA might need to do, plus advice on what needs to go to a CPA and what to give to one. You don't hire an expensive CPA to do basic bookkeeping and daily mail processing, which it sounds like you've been trying to suggest we do. > jobs with officers has had a less-than-desirable success rate, and we've > had enough different treasurers to tell it's not a problem with just one I don't recall an officer ever doing the sort of thing a CPA would (file taxes and the like). Why would you have SPI hire a CPA to do bookkeeper's work? The bookkeeper is to take the load off the officers. -- John _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.spi-inc.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/spi-general
