it begins innocently enough. a client brings in a form 1099-k — perhaps for the first time — showing payments received through online sales platforms. the conversation reveals that this “new” activity isn’t new at all. the client has been running an internet-based side business for years, but never disclosed it to their preparer.

“now you have a circular 230 problem,” werner warns.

most professionals know that pdf files are one of the most reliable ways to share contracts, reports, and sensitive documents. but here’s a question: are your pdfs truly secure—or just locked with a flimsy password that a hacker could break in minutes?

more steve yoss here | more tech

did you know you can set not one but two passwords on a pdf? one encrypts the document, preventing unauthorized access, while another restricts editing or modification. together, these measures give you control over who can read and who can alter your files.

modern versions of adobe acrobat use 256-bit aes encryption—a powerful safeguard. but here’s the catch: the encryption is only as strong as the password you choose. a short, simple password is like putting a state-of-the-art lock on your front door but leaving the key under the mat.

the concierge cpa
with jackie meyer
for 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间

in the latest episode of the concierge cpa, jackie meyer, a nationally recognized tax strategist, and dave lukas, ceo of taxplaniq, walk through the most significant provisions of the new law. the hosts emphasize that while the changes add complexity, they also create what meyer calls “a once-in-a-generation opportunity for accountants to step up as trusted advisors.”

one of the biggest wins for business owners is the permanent return of 100% bonus depreciation. companies can immediately expense the full cost of qualifying assets—including used property—placed in service after jan. 19, 2025. “timing matters more than ever,” meyer stresses, urging cpas to model scenarios carefully to avoid unintended consequences with qualified business income (qbi) deductions.

big 4 transparency
by dominic piscopo, cpa
for 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间

in this episode of big 4 transparency, matthew may, former co-founder of acuity and now cas leader at sorren, pulls back the curtain on one of the most significant private equity-driven rollups in the accounting profession. speaking with host dominic piscopo, may details how acuity, alongside other firms, became part of a growing national platform backed by dfw capital, and why he believes client accounting services (cas) will soon eclipse audit.

the seeds of the sorren platform were planted in a bdo alliance roundtable where six firms fantasized about joining forces. that vision crystallized when dfw capital, with a thesis to invest $100m in the space, entered the picture. from there, may and his partners at acuity ran a rigorous process, engaging investment bankers to evaluate 250 potential paths, leading to 11 indications of interest (iois), seven in-person meetings, and five formal offers. the decision to join sorren wasn’t about cashing out – it was about autonomy, cultural fit, and the chance to help shape a future-focused firm from the ground up.
