The examination of the financial statements by an accounting professional to determine whether they conform to accounting standards. An “independent audit” is performed by a public accounting firm or an individual who is a certified public accountant (“CPA”) who is engaged to provide an independent opinion to the management whether or not the nonprofit’s financial statements/records comply with accounting standards known as “GAAP” (generally accepted accounting principles.)
