Eh, I'm just a fan of getting thoughts from multiple different data sources. Obviously an accountant will be an important/final step, but by casting a wide net and asking others to share their experiences, that lets me ask better questions when I do reach out to the accountant. Individual accountants also may know a lot about the legal accounting requirements, but they may not be as familiar with all available bookkeeping software, for example. Note that the question asks how others handle their process, not how I should handle mine.
