Re: Audit Engagement

Dear Mr. Jackson,

This letter confirms our understanding of the previously discussed arrangements for our audit

of the financial statements of Jackson Enterprises, for the year ending 2011.

We will audit the Company’s balance sheet as of 12/31/2011, along with the related statements

of Income, retained earnings, and cash flows for all of 2011. Based on this audit we will provide

our professional opinion. The financial statements are the responsibility of Jackson Enterprises

management team. Our responsibility as your auditor is to express an opinion on the financial

statements based on our audit.

We will conduct our audit process in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.

These standards require that we conduct the audit to obtain reasonable assurance if the

financial statements are free of false and misleading statements. An audit of this nature will

also assess the accounting principles that your company uses along with estimates that are

made by management. Our audit will provide the basis for our opinion.

The procedures that we use will include tests of documentary evidence that supports the

transactions recorded in your company’s accounts along with direct confirmation of all

receivables and liabilities through correspondence with randomly selected customers, creditors

and banks.

This audit cannot be relied upon to detect all fraud or other irregularities. However, we will

inform you of any material errors or illegal acts that come to our attention through the audit

process.
