 Audit
Guides
Did you ever wonder...
- What is the IRS looking for during an
audit;
- What methods do they use to find this
information;
- How can I lower red flags and protect
my business during an audit?
Well, wonder no more. The following are
links to the IRS Market Segment Specialization Program (MSSP) guides used
by tax examiners. "The
Market Segment Specialization Program focuses on developing highly trained
examiners for a particular market segment. A market segment may be an
industry such as construction or entertainment, a profession like
attorneys or real estate agents or an issue like passive activity losses.
An integral part of the approach used is the development and publication
of Audit Techniques Guides. These Guides contain examination techniques,
common and unique industry issues, business practices, industry
terminology and other information to assist examiners in performing
examinations."
