Insider tips from Former State Sales Tax Auditor:

States are in a dire need of revenue and are fishing for that revenue from your business. The State of Florida targets industries such as

  •   Hotels
  •   Car Dealerships
  •   Convenience Stores
  •   Retail Stores
  •   Manufacturing Companies
  •   Shipping Companies
  •   Restaurants
  •   Bars

 
They target these industries because there is low hanging fruit  because of widespread abuse in the above industries. Also  businesses that deal in cash tends to have owners and managers sticking their hands too much in the cash register. As long as you are paying your tax and sales tax this will not be an issue however the state is well aware of those a little too greedy.
You must also be careful because many times the state of Florida reports their findings to the internal revenue service on cases of willful and wanton abuse.
 

States “fish” for assessments from:

1. fixed assets
2. consumable supplies
3. disallowed exempt sales
4. unreported income
5. untaxed commercial rent for Florida location

Beware:

If your employee is handling the audit, state auditor can extract information that you should not be willing to expose.
State auditors are trained be nice but yet dig information that will help them come up with an assessment for tax, penalty and interest.
Let us handle the audit and keep this information out of the hands of the audit. We will give them the information they need but not more than they need.
Before starting the audit we will have an initial tax consultation to find out your weaknesses and your strengths.
And keep this in mind even though you think that your records are clean if you represent yourself the auditor may find more than they were looking for.
Have any doubts, questions or have some issues that you are not clear on – we can represent you.
