Kevin Ananian provides tax preparation and financial reporting for agricultural and manufacturing businesses, including chemical suppliers, hullers and shellers, handlers, and storage facilities.

  • Devising the most advantageous tax strategy for the sale of a large, consolidated cooperative to a publicly traded company by appropriately deferring gains and employing members’ lower tax brackets.
  • Acting as the senior auditor during a large prune handler’s conversion to walnut processing. Consulting on the set up of a walnut inventory costing system and significant facility improvements for a smooth transition.
