Accomplishment /Achievement
Canada Revenue Agency:
During the audit of one taxpayer accounts records of taxpayer are not organised and it was very difficult
to verify evidence of business related expenses.
I organised all documents, prepared spread sheet in Excel and analysed expenses data. I applied
knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Standards (GAAP) and provisions of the Income Tax Act.
As a result we recovered huge amount of outstanding tax liability about $10,000. I contributed to
achieving CRA’S goal to comply Income tax Act and determined correct tax amount of tax payer.
