Irs Audit Procedures

...ir As a taxpayer filing a tax return, I am sure one of the thoughts running through their mind would be “what are the chances that my tax return will be selected for examination?” Just because the taxpayer wonders if their tax return may be selected for an examination it does not mean they may know exactly how the returns are selected for examination. What most taxpayers don’t know is that there is various ways to have your tax return selected for an examination. If all taxpayers would know the various ways that the Internal Revenue Service selects tax returns for examination, I am sure that they would only report what truly occurred throughout the year instead of telling their tax preparers to please work some magic to get the max refund they could possibly get. Being that I have worked for various years at CPA firms, you hear it all when it comes to getting a max refund. Therefore, I would like to discuss the various ways that returns are selected for examination in order to educate these taxpayers. The first thing a taxpayer should know is that when their tax returns are received by the Internal Revenue Service Center there is computers and employees that regularly check for obvious errors such as a signature was omitted on the return or the taxpayers social security number does not appear. These computers also check for mathematical mistakes. Once this process has occurred then there is a magnetic tape with pertinent information from each return which is sent to the...

Cost Audit

...Cost Audit Cost Audit in EDP environment When planning the cost audit, the cost auditor should consider an appropriate combination of manual and computer-assisted audit techniques (CAATs). In determining whether to use CAATs, he should take into account: i) His computer knowledge, expertise and experience. ii) Availability of CAATs and suitable computer facilities. iii) Impracticability iv) Effectiveness and efficiency. v) Timing.
