About the firm
Crosby & Kaneda is a small San Francisco Bay Area CPA firm. Founding partner Adele Kaneda has been in public accounting since 1988, and the firm’s directors include CPAs with more than 20 years as nonprofit finance and operations leaders.
Who it works with
It works with 501(c)(3) charities with revenue of $100,000 to $15 million, and its proposal form asks for California incorporation. Audits are offered to organizations with revenue up to $5 million. Audit fieldwork can be on site or remote; review work is done in the firm’s office.
Services and how engagements work
Services are GAAS financial statement audits and reviews, plus tax filings: Forms 990, 990-EZ, 990-N and 990-T, California FTB Forms 199 and 109, and the Attorney General’s RRF-1. The firm says it does not offer Yellow Book or Single Audits and does not do bookkeeping. Organizations that spend federal awards above the Single Audit threshold will need a different auditor.

Before you hire an auditor
- License in your state. Audits are performed by licensed CPA firms. Confirm the firm can practice in your state, especially if it works with you remotely.
- Peer review. Ask for the firm’s most recent peer review report.
- Single Audit. If your organization expends $1,000,000 or more in federal awards in a fiscal year, it needs a Single Audit under 2 CFR 200.501. Ask whether the firm performs them.
- Scope and fee. Ask what the engagement letter covers (audit, Form 990, management letter) and how the fee is set.

Best For
California 501(c)(3) organizations under $5 million in revenue that need a financial statement audit or review, without federal Single Audit requirements.
Where it stands out
Crosby & Kaneda states its limits plainly: audits for California charities up to $5 million, with remote or on-site fieldwork.
Good fit if: You are a California 501(c)(3) under $5 million in revenue that needs a GAAS audit or review, not a Single Audit.
Watch for: No Yellow Book or Single Audits; audits only up to $5 million in revenue, and no bookkeeping.
Nonprofit single audits on record: None on record (the firm says it doesn't do Single Audits)
