Lidia Lashway, CPA

 If you, as a business owner, don’t have the time to maintain your own books, it would be beneficial to hire a professional to do it for you. The benefit of outsourcing the accounting and bookkeeping services as an alternative to hiring a full-time staff member to do the job reduces your overall expenses as you won’t incur the cost of employee benefits and professional training.

 Each client can customize the services according to the unique requirements of the business.

Lidia Lashway, Chartered Professional Accountant, provides accounting and bookkeeping services to start-up, small and medium size businesses. These services include day-to-day bookkeeping, government remittances, personal and sole proprietorship tax returns, year-end compilation of financial statements and other services tailored specifically to each client.

 Lidia is a Chartered Professional Accountant who spent more than 20 years working as a Senior Financial Analyst, Consolidation Accountant and Chief Accountant for such major engineering, project management and manufacturing corporations as AGRA, AMEC, Zenon Environmental Inc., General Electric and Hunter Amenities International Ltd. She is passionate about supporting small and medium size businesses, which are the backbone of the Canadian economy.

 Lidia understands the daily challenges of running a business. Often business owners don’t have the time nor discipline for maintaining detailed accounts receivable and payable, bank and credit card reconciliations, government remittances, dealing with CRA etc. Proper accounting plays a vital role in running a business because it helps track income and expenditures, ensures statutory compliance, and provides business owners with quantitative financial information that can be used in making business decisions.
