Auditors provide a valuable, if somewhat invisible, service. They contract with a company's shareholders to get inside the firm and do something for shareholders that they cannot do for themselves. They examine how transactions occur, how they are recorded, and how they are reported in the financial statements. In the sterile, homogenized language of the standard audit opinion, the auditor attests to the fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. accounting principles. Once the financial statements are issued with the auditor's imprimatur, it is up to an investor to study them and decide whether they want to invest, or stay invested.
