Audits in the Washington DC Metro Area seem to
be on the rise. The IRS training manual tells its auditors
that they are examining you, not just your tax return. The District of
Columbia, and states throughout the country, generally follow suit with
those standards set by the Internal Revenue Service. Auditors want to
see how you match up with the income reported on your return. Areas for
examination will include, does your lifestyle match your reported income?
An auditor will take note of the way you dress, your jewelry, car, and
furnishings in your home or office, and any other observations where they
can gain access. If you are self-employed and your business makes a lot
of cash
transaction this will be scrutinized. Business & Financial Solutions helps
clients work through these Washington DC and IRS audits.
Other areas of concern are exorbitant automobile
expenses, personal
use of your business-deducted auto expensives, so keep good records.
In Washington DC, where loads of meals and entertainment are common, auditors
for DC and IRS auditors will want to examine these for legitimacy. Did
you claim personal entertainment, meals, or vacation costs as business
expenses? Travel and entertainment business expenses are another area where
the IRS and the Washington DC governments are interested. Document
all travel and entertainment deductions. Taking buddies to the ball game
and calling it business will not work if you can't explain the business
relationship.
