Tax Risk Assessments.

Publicly-traded companies and non-publicly-traded companies who are required to comply with generally-accepted accounting principles must comply with Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 740.

Compliance with FASB ASC 740 requires identification and documentation of tax risks inherent in all potentially-significant business transactions, whether or not such transactions are conducted in the normal course of business. An ASC 740-compliant business enterprise is required to establish and maintain key controls to ensure appropriate management of a company’s tax risks.

Some mid-sized companies choose to obtain outside assistance to comply with this standard. This firm can provide that assistance.
