Sales/Use Tax Review Services

Sales/Use Tax administration can place a substantial time and cost burden on any tax department if not handled properly. Many companies cannot afford the time, capital or adequate manpower to invest in an efficient detail oriented Sales/Use Tax administrative process. CPTM has developed a program to meet daily filings that does not require significant time investments from you and your staff. CPTM provides its clients with Sales/Use Tax Review Services to address tax requirements properly. Our team of experienced tax professionals works hard to identify and mitigate Sales/Use Tax errors and inefficiencies by providing customized solutions to each client’s unique circumstances.

Audit Defense

CPTM’s audit management service is designed to meet each client’s specific needs.  We work with our clients to manage current, past and/or future audits.  Our team can provide assistance with the audit process from start to finish or we can focus on specific areas within the audit process.  Our goal is to provide each client with customized assistance and to play a role in meeting their audit objectives and team success.

Audit Management

Most companies have multiple audits in progress at any given time. Because of time constraints, companies focus on the larger audits or audits with a higher potential of assessment. Unfortunately, this leaves smaller audits with little review time. CPTM can provide audit management for the smaller audits and/or assist and manage all audits. For instances where a company may want to participate in certain issues, CPTM provide exclusion addendums that would eliminate duplicating efforts and issues concerning fees that may be due.

Questions to Consider

• Is your business located in an empire/enterprise zone?
• Do you purchase significant amounts of printed materials?
• Do you monitor and update tax changes?
• How are you packaging your goods?
• When was your last sales/use tax audit?
• Do you have property categorized as pollution control?
• Are you paying use tax?
• Have you made significant changes to products?
• Has your manufacturing process changed?

Reverse Audits

This service represents the greatest potential. Some companies pay little attention to their purchases, which allows opportunities for full utilization of applicable exemptions to pass. CPTM will position itself to assist with review of records to determine if companies are taking full advantage of all available exemptions. This would be the most time consuming process of the various services and would generally be done on a contingent basis.
