What are Business Audits?

Business audits can be voluntary or involuntary. The IRS and state revenue department conduct them to check if you're paying the right amount of taxes. Additionally, many companies routinely have outside accountants comb through their books to ensure compliance.

All business audits are different, and depend on your industry, company size, and reason for audit.

Types of Business Audits

Audits come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and foci. There are procedural compliance audits to ensure companies' policies fulfill internal or regulatory requirements. Financial audits examine "the books," and are the most common type of voluntary business audit. Investigative audits are initiated by authorities when they suspect fraudulent activity.

Often, the most feared of audits is the tax audit, executed by either the IRS or state revenue department. And it's where we come in.
