> Blue Book
This is the term commonly used to describe the Government Finance Officers Association publication Governmental Accounting, Auditing and Financial Reporting. Initially, the blue book was the authoritative source for GAAP for state and local governments.
While most people regard accounting as boring and tedious work, it's arguably the most important part of running a business. New Hampshire accountants keep track of what money is coming in and what money is going out. But if your company gets stuck with a disgruntled or corrupt employee, you can find that the business could be owing money to the government and that it's in worse financial shape than it is on paper. With the help of an accounting professional in New Hampshire, you could straighten everything out quickly.

Accountants are responsible for a wide variety of duties. They make sure that a company is run efficiently, that records are kept accurately and that taxes are paid on time. Generally, accountants will prepare, analyze and verify financial documents.
There are four types of New Hampshire accountants:
Public Accountants
Management Accountants
Government Accountants
Internal Accountants
Each accountant specializes in one particular field to provide specialized services for a company or for private clients. Their expertise is especially important at large public companies who are forced to disclose their financial status to investors or the Securities and Exchange Commission. But if the government discovers discrepancies in a company's financial records, the company and its executives could be in some big trouble: They could face hefty fines and jail time.
