Use Tax Audits: Tip the Scales in Your Favor

Description

It’s hard enough for corporate tax specialists to defend their interests in a state sales tax audit. The task gets even harder in a use tax audit.

You’re dealing with different corporate departments than with sales tax compliance, asking them for different support documentation. Plus, the definitions of a taxable “use” of a product vary widely from state to state.

Meanwhile, revenue departments are pushing their auditors very hard to improve the historically poor collections on use tax from both businesses and consumers. Particularly when it comes to use tax, advance work on documentation and audit planning can tip the scales in your company’s favor.

Listen as our panel of veteran tax pros gives you valuable guidance and insights into managing a state or local use tax audit.
