What raises the fee
Multiple subsidiaries, first-year audits with incomplete opening balances, inventory counts at distant warehouses, and translated foreign-currency ledgers all add sampling and reconciliation time.
Fees
How audit fees are built
Pricing follows the hours of fieldwork, the complexity of your chart of accounts, and whether we travel to your premises in Kumamoto Prefecture. Figures below are informational starting points, not checkout prices.
| Engagement | Basis | Starting guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Annual financial statement audit | Quoted after scoping; deposit to reserve fieldwork weeks | From ¥980,000 |
| Interim financial review | Fixed fee for a defined quarter or half-year | From ¥320,000 |
| Internal control walkthrough | Day rate plus report drafting | ¥95,000 / day |
| Agreed-upon procedures | Quoted per procedure list | From ¥180,000 |
What keeps fees steady
Clean bank reconciliations, a complete fixed-asset rollforward, and a contact who can answer voucher questions the same week keep fieldwork inside the original estimate.
Deposits & billing
Annual audits require a 30% deposit when the engagement letter is signed. Progress invoices follow fieldwork milestones. Travel within Kumamoto Prefecture is included; overnight stays outside the prefecture are billed at cost.
