Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

You are the Tax Manager at a large firm. The firm has experienced significant growth in its tax practice. As a result, several new tax staff members were hired. Most of the new tax staff just graduated and have minimal hands-on tax experience. You are a mentor for a number of these new hires and need to help them with their work.

 
Tax research is a skill that every tax accountant should possess. These skills allow tax accountants to provide value-added services to its clients. In addition, these skills are needed to evaluate nonroutine, unusual transactions. Tax research may be needed to defend a tax position questioned by the IRS. One important concept to understand within tax research is the hierarchy of the tax authoritative sources.

Prepare an interoffice decision-aid/memo to your tax staff including the following:

  1. The primary and secondary authoritative sources, a description, and the differences between them.
  2. The steps needed to conduct tax research, including the use of tax research databases.

In your own words, please post a response to the Discussion Board and comment on other postings. You will be graded on the quality of your postings.

For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.
