Importance of tax accounting audit:
an early audit helps to identify controversial and risky accounting situations promptly, prepare arguments that will reduce the likelihood of tax disputes and the application of fines, and provide confidence to the company's management before a scheduled tax audit.
verification procedures help an entity comply with tax and labour law requirements.
audit results may reveal opportunities and reserves for the optimal calculation of the amount of the tax liability.
regular audit of tax records increases the confidence of investors, banks, regulators and other third parties.
Considering the scope of the audit and the variety of procedures used during the audit, the time spent on the audit is significantly greater than the time spent on a narrow tax audit engagement.
With the beginning of the activation of tax audits by the supervisory authorities, the service for in-depth verification of individual tax issues will be more appropriate, faster in execution, and more effective from the point of view of working out complex and ambiguous problems
