Tim keeps his own financial records using spreadsheets and gives a draft trial balance to his professionally qualified accountant and friend, Amy Reynolds, who finalises the accounts and ensures that all the legal and regulatory responsibilities of the company are met.

Amy is currently semi-retired from work as an accountant but still does the minimum continuous professional development to keep her status as a professionally qualified accountant. Much of Amy`s time currently is writing the final draft of an accounting textbook based on business case studies that Amy is familiar with. Amy is a member of a professional accounting body that signs up to the IFAC Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants.
