IRS Audit Techniques Guides provide clues to what may come up if your business is audited

Apr 12, 2018 | News

IRS examiners use Audit Techniques Guides (ATGs) to prepare for audits, and small business owners can use them, too. Many ATGs target specific industries, such as construction. Others address issues that frequently arise in audits, such as executive compensation and fringe benefits. Although ATGs were created to enhance IRS examiner proficiency, they also can help small businesses ensure they aren’t engaging in practices that could raise red flags with the IRS.
