Importance and Composition of a Tax Audit for the Past Period

A tax audit of the past period is a crucial process for any company. Here are the reasons why it matters and what it involves:

Meaning:

  • Risk identification: a tax audit enables a company to identify potential tax risks stemming from past operations.
  • Ensuring compliance: it ensures the company is fully compliant with relevant tax laws and regulations.
  • Financial stability: the audit helps prevent unforeseen financial obligations by addressing any issues stemming from improper tax practices.
  • Reputation Protection: regular tax audits demonstrate the commitment of the company to fulfilling its tax obligations responsibly.
  • Optimization Opportunities: audits can uncover areas where tax optimization is possible, within the law frame.

Scope:

A tax audit of the past period typically includes the following components:

  • Overview of financial documentation: a thorough review of all relevant financial records, such as accounting books, invoices, and expense reports.
  • Analysis of tax returns: a revision of all tax returns submitted during the past period to verify their accuracy and completeness;
  • Internal control assessment: evaluation of the internal tax processes of the company and control mechanisms.
  • Legislation compliance check: comparison of current and past operations with relevant tax laws.
  • Risk assessment: identification and evaluation of potential tax risks, along with an analysis of their potential impact.
