Confused ? Befuddled ? CPA clients, take note : The JargonMaster translator is now available ! Simply scan in your accountant’s correspondence and JargonMaster instantly restates the message in straightforward English. JargonMaster weighs just four ounces and comes in designer colors. And for all you CPAs, JargonMaster makes a great holiday gift for clients! Order today, before supplies run out. The JargonMaster is, of course, imaginary but, unfortunately, the need to translate CPA speak for clients is all too real. Technical doublespeak is a time - tested defensive measure for all sorts of professionals, and CPA s are no exception. The problem is that in trying to sidestep potential liability CPA s may obscure important client information rather than clarify its meaning. Even SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt sees benefits to the profession in using direct language. In a recent address to the AICPA council, Levitt said he would like to see CPA s "hone specific, but plain English definitions for the types of information [that] should be included in public disclosure.” You don’t need to allude to every contingency in every paragraph to play it safe. It truly is possible to Express yourself in plain English and cover all the bases. State the basis for assumptions and the limits of an engagement and still communicate clearly with clients. Use the boilerplate language that insurers and legal counsel recommend - without letting the tone of such disclaimers overwhelm every sentence.
