What Are The Common Tax Issues Businesses Face With The IRS?
Businesses typically encounter challenges with payroll tax compliance, sales tax collection and remittance, income tax reporting discrepancies and classification of workers as employees versus independent contractors. Additional issues include transfer pricing disputes, nexus determinations for multistate operations and documentation requirements for business deductions.
How Can Businesses Avoid Tax Controversies And Disputes?
Preventive strategies include maintaining accurate and complete financial records, implementing robust internal controls, staying current with tax law changes, filing timely returns and working with qualified tax professionals. Regular tax compliance reviews and proactive communication with tax authorities about complex issues can also help prevent disputes from escalating.
How Does Personal Liability Affect Business Owners In Tax Matters?
Business owners and executives may face personal liability for certain business taxes, particularly employment taxes and sales taxes. This means personal assets could be at risk if the business fails to meet its tax obligations. The Trust Fund Recovery Penalty allows the IRS to pursue individuals responsible for collecting and paying withheld taxes, making proper tax management essential for personal financial protection.
