What this episode covers

In this episode, we cover a lot of accounting ground, including some reasons for and against investing in Bill.com now that it's public on the New York Stock Exchange. We also examine the threat to California's credit from the troubled $1B state accounting program; how Liberty Tax's parent settles with Justice Department and IRS; QuickBooks' integration with Starling Bank in the UK, and what PNC's fight with Venmo means for fintech broadly. If that wasn't enough, we'll also take a look at how new client emails can improve your practice, how satisfying is CAS?, the PaySauce/Xero partnership to serve the farming niche; how to check if you and your clients are affected by the Zynga breach; and a worrisome trend of more and more public companies fixing accounting errors quietly, and more!
