Revenue Agent
Internal Revenue Service
970 Broad Street
Newark, NJ 07101
Responsible for audits of individuals and businesses. Auditing includes the accumulation of evidence for evaluating the accuracy of the taxpayer’s tax return(s). Evidence takes many forms, including the taxpayer’s testimony, the taxpayer’s books and records, the examiner’s own observations and documents from third parties. Methods for accumulating evidence include: Analytical Tests; such as analysis of Balance Sheet items to identify large, unusual, or questionable accounts. Analytical tests use comparisons and relationships to isolate accounts and transactions that should be further examined or determine that further inquiry is not needed. Documentation; such as examining the taxpayer’s books and records to determine the content, accuracy, and substantiate items claimed on the tax return. Inquiry; such as interviewing the taxpayer or third parties. Information from independent third parties can confirm or verify the accuracy of information presented by the taxpayer. Inspection; such as physically examining the taxpayer’s assets, e.g., inventory or securities. Observation; such as conducting a tour of the taxpayer’s business to observe the taxpayer’s daily business operations. Testing; such as tracing transactions to determine if they are correctly recorded and summarized in the taxpayer’s books and records.
