I have a CPA question. I have an IRS audit tomorrow.:depressed: Which is my best course of action?

1. Send my CPA in my place( he's a wimp and may cave under pressure).

2. Go myself with all my stuff well organized and cross referenced. Wear a tie. shave. Pretend to be intelligent.

3. Go myself and take a huge mass of documentation in a cluttered, unorganized mess inside of a box or grocery sack. Wear jeans and boots and don't take my dip out until the audit is underway.


Thanks for any advice you can give. The result of this audit may affect my ability to take multiple out of CONUS dive drips in the future.

I was teasing about being screwed.:wink: Go with #2, but take your CPA with you also. You know more about your business and books and deductions than anyone else so you should be there to answer any questions about that, but your CPA needs to be there to answer any questions about how your return was prepared. Always act like you know what you are doing :wink: and have your records organized. You want to make a good first impression. A mess will only make them think you have done something wrong, whether it was intentional or not.

You think I could make a good first impression by taking the auditor a gift? I just happen to have this bottle of Jamaican dark rum laying around that I could offer up.
