Acquiring Majority Owner of CPA / Accounting Firm as Non-CPA

by a professional from San Jose State University

2 years ago

I'm exploring the regulations for one of my entities to be the majority owner of a CPA firm. 

Since I'm not a CPA, we would need to structure the company as a Alternative Practice Structure (APS).

Does anyone have any direct experience with this?
