Profile
Carrie-Anne started her business Cents & Accountability in January 2000. She studied at Birnam Business College in Johannesburg and had informal training from the accountants and auditors, Haak Fourie Snyman.
She works with numerous small business owners, handling their accounting needs. Her work with business owners is not just doing the monthly bookkeeping – but creating budgets, cash flows, working out break-even points, management packs, attending Board meetings and looking at different ways to grow the business. She provides services to assist clients in making the correct business decisions and keeps them informed of any legislative changes.
Carrie-Anne’s goal in working with business owners is not only to make sure that their books are up-to-date, but that the owner understands their financial reports. Her aim is to provide a value added service to all her clients, and prides herself in supplying an honest, reliable high-quality
service.
Her mission is to encourage personal and business growth through knowledge.

‘My experience with Cents Accountability has been great. Carrie-Anne is very professional, understanding, practical, proactive and efficient with all aspects of the work.

‘We have been working with Cents & Accountability for the past year; we have worked with 3 other companies and got nowhere. One of the reasons we like working with Cents & Accountability is that they come to us and leave all the information on site. Our previous accounting companies have insisted on removing the data, meaning we could not refer back to anything if necessary. Cents & Accountability explain what needs to be done and why, so even though we are not doing the work we still understand what is happening in our company’s financials.’

“As a businessman, there is nothing like having someone of Carrie-Anne’s caliber support you with those complicated and demanding financial issues. I have only GOOD things to say about Carrie-Anne in her capacity as Book-keeper/Accountant & Financial administrator within my business. Her ability to articulate the most complicated concepts for a layman’s understanding is what enables me to make the right decisions around the various accounting/business flows. Her meticulous approach to her work is evidenced by the superb final presentation of the financials. In business today we need partnerships with professional people (a mastermind group) who process and advise us in a way that adds value to our businesses. To this end I can only strongly recommend Carrie-Anne Diniz without hesitation.”

“Carrie Ann has been my book keeper for 10 years. I have only had delight in her work and advice. At times I wish I would have listened more to her advice as an expert. She is fun to work with and always bring some lightness in a serious environment. She is dedicated to her clients and walks more than the extra mile. I can definitely recommend her.”
