  McCarty-Hull, Inc

  Dec 2000 - Oct 2010

  Controller

  In my time here, I prepared monthly financial statements, reconciled balance sheet accounts, and recorded journal entries. I also ensured compliance with GAAP. I managed and prepared annual budgets for multiple locations and divisions. I assisted with due diligence during a buyout by a publicly traded corporation, and complied with SOX requirements. I also designed reports using Crystal and FrX Financial Report Writing. I also managed daily cash, and prepared quarterly and annual payroll tax returns, W2s, and 1099s. I performed ESOP allocation and reporting. Finally, I coordinated the annual external audit, and supervised five staff members.I'm especially proud that I yielded a savings over $10K and increased efficiency by coordinating accounting conversion and data migration from Peachtree to Best/Sage MAS 90, and installed annual updates. I also enhanced operations by converting fixed assets from an Excel spreadsheet to FAS Accounting. Show less
