Part 1 of 2 - The IRS Audit Monster – What Are the Chances of You Running into the Beast?

Don't let the IRS audit monster
get you down!
An IRS audit truly is like a monster for some business owners and entrepreneurs. Why would it not be? Here you have a huge headache, and if you are like many business owners, you are probably unsure what you need to have all in order to make it out of the beast’s den unscathed. As with most business owners, you probably also think that the chance of the IRS audit monster visiting you is extremely unlikely. Well, you may want to think again.

After all, the IRS in the U.S. has increased the number of IRS audits by a whopping and terrifying 37% since 2001. That is a gigantic increase! Hold on, no need to stop reading and start rushing to file all your paperwork all professionally just yet. There are some silver linings here that may be good news to you. While the IRS audits have grown vastly since 2001, most people getting them and experiencing real IRS trouble are people who have abusive tax shelters and corporations. The other thing that an IRS audit looks for in its prey is people who are high income taxpayers – typically making over a $100,000 a year.

That does not mean an IRS audit cannot come flinging at your place of business though. As with any good monster, there are hexes you can use and wards you can manifest to keep it at bay. In other words, you can do certain things and make your business more efficient to help avoid any IRS trouble in the first place. One of the best things you can do is making sure all your records and filings are correct and properly organized.

Next month we will cover how juicy of a target you are for an IRS audit with additional info tips.
