Biblically-Based Financial Advice

All of the services provided by Copland CPA Professional Corporation are based upon biblical principles, which include the following:

Debt Reduction (Proverbs 22:7)
We believe that minimal debt or ideally no debt is best. Hence if you're interested in reducing both your corporate debt and your personal debt, we would be more than pleased to help you develop and implement a plan to do so. We have helped hundreds of people to become debt-free, and everyone we've helped has indicated that they feel like "200 pounds came off their back". They never realized the stress and the pressure that they were under because of debt.

Saving (Proverbs 21:20)
Wisdom and experience have demonstrated that those individuals and companies who purposely save a surplus of cash, will much more easily survive recessionary times and can purchase businesses, equipment, real estate etc. for their business at remarkably low prices. We have helped many clients develop and implement a business and personal cash flow plan in order to accumulate significant savings.

Budgeting (Luke 14:28-30)
Significant long-term benefits can be achieved by developing and implementing a budget at the corporate and personal level. The objective is to ensure that you and your company spend less than you earn each month, and use the surplus to pay down debt and save for future needs.

Giving Generously (Proverbs 3:9&10)
Many of our clients have experienced the joy of helping those who are less fortunate by giving financially to various charitable organizations or directly to those in need.

Honesty & Trustworthiness Matter (Luke 16:10-12)
Honesty, integrity and trustworthiness have all become critical business principles. We believe that being honest and trustworthy in financial dealings is a foundation to long-term success for the staff of Copland CPA Professional Corporation and our clients.

Diversify (Ecclesiastes 12:2)
We advise and work with our clients to develop a sound business plan which includes diversifying business risk by not having economic dependence on one or a small group of customers and by diversifying business activities, interests and holdings.

Seeking Wise Counsel (Proverbs 1:5 and 15:22)
Wise decisions are made by seeking wise counsel. It can keep you from making a lot of mistakes. We advise our clients that they can benefit from the wisdom, experience and insight of others. When our firm does not have the expertise that our client needs, we do not hesitate to refer our clients to another professional. At all times, the client's interests are of utmost importance.

Being Content (Philippians 4:11-13)
Being content to live within your means, is a very practical and long-term beneficial attitude towards money and material things. We encourage and work with clients, not only at the corporate level but also at the personal level, to help ensure that they can afford any financial commitments that they assume. In Canada, with credit so easily available, it is very easy to spend more than you earn and get into financial difficulty.

The Golden Rule (Luke 6:31 and Matthew 7:12)
is to "do to others what you would have them do to you." This means - treat others how you would like to be treated. It is called the "golden" rule because there is value in having this kind of respect and caring attitude for one another. Our Firm believes that this is an underlying principle in how we conduct our practice.
