Topic: Financial Audit Risk Associated With Non-Income Based Taxes
As states continue to aggressively expand nexus standards and ramp up audit and enforcement activities, it is likely that clients will have significant liabilities associated with sales tax or other non-income based taxes. What is the responsibility of the CPA to advise a client of the potential material financial statement impact associated with this risk? Further, non-income based taxes such as ad valorem taxes; excise taxes; franchise taxes; sales/use etc., provide unique challenges to middle market companies that are simply trying to pay the bills.
Please join Audit Senior Manager Kim Huynh and Indirect Tax Partner John Cooney as they lead a discussion of best practices. The speakers will allow for questions and discussions, so please be prepared to discuss your concerns, experiences, and lessons learned.
