Improvement and integration of tax accounting and reporting into the finance function has never been more important than it is today. Financial restatements due to errors in the tax accounts coupled with increased regulatory scrutiny of tax-related balances and disclosures have elevated the focus on tax accounting and exposed significant challenges for many companies. These issues are further complicated by the continued compression of quarter and year-end financial reporting timelines, as well as the growing emphasis placed on appropriately accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions (UTP) or the complexities associated with managing the wide range of tax and accounting-related risks of doing business in light of ever-changing global standards. Unfortunately, many companies currently lack the skilled tax accounting resources necessary to help them meet today’s tax accounting and reporting challenges.
