Write-up work definition
/What is Write-Up Work?
Write-up work involves the preparation of financial statements for a client without first reviewing or auditing the underlying information. This is a relatively low value-added activity, so the fee charged to the client for this service is generally low. An accountant is most commonly hired for write-up work by clients who do not have any employees who are qualified to produce these reports. Thus, it can be a source of steady, low-margin work for independent accountants.
