Base fee

Base Fee is determined based on public information of audit fee issued from Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountant (JICPA). The information, available at JICPA’s website, provide historical audit hours and fees per company’s size periodically. We use the information as a Base fee to make our audit fee reasonable and transparent for our clients.

Specific matters for client

Specific matters for each client which is not reflected in the Base fee is adjusted to the Audit fee (e.g., pervious audited experience, complexity of business, numbers of group entities, recent economic result and financial position). Specific matters are clearly explained in our proposal.

Professional addition

Professional items are added to the Audit fee, such as:

IFRS、US GAAP(Fee benchmark: 10%~50% of Base fee)

Audit to financial statements in accordance with IFRS, US GAAP and other overseas accounting standards requires more professional skills and, therefore, add-on fee is charged. The fee is determined on the extent of complexity of business, etc. Please feel free to contact us for any inquiry.

English support(Fee benchmark: 10%~50% of Base fee)

We assign members who can support in English if English support is necessary in your audit with additional fee. The fee is determined on the extent of required English level (e.g., e-mail, meeting, reporting). Please feel free to contact us for any inquiry.
