Bail Bond businesses are generally operated on the cash basis method of accounting and are very cash intensive. Bail agents often prefer to collect cash rather than checks, due to the nature of their clientele. Internal Revenue Service Audit Agents have learned that gross receipts are usually 50% to 80% cash. In many states bail agents who write bail, whether acting in their own behalf or for another agent, must be licensed. Thus, the first step for an Internal Revenue Service Audit Agent will be to identify you with a listing from the state licensing agency. The IRS may contact the surety companies most commonly used by bail agents in your district and request information relating to you. If necessary, The IRS will obtain a summons to obtain the following information:
- Total Bail Premiums Earned
- BUF Payments made to the surety company
- Total interest accrued on the agents BUF account
- Withdrawals from the agents BUF account
- ...And any other information held by the surety company.
The first indication that there was noncompliance in filing returns was observed by checking the filing records of persons advertising in phone books. Of the names checked during a recent process, almost one third were non-filers. The Internal Revenue Service advises its Auditors (due to the fact that bail bond businesses often have poor business records and because of the degree of noncompliance in this industry) that it is necessary to make use of all internal resources and third party sources of information, whenever possible, in order to have an effective audit. Interviewing the taxpayer will help determine to what extent third-party resources will be needed, since the degree of internal control and the degree of the taxpayer's involvement in daily activities can be determined in the initial interview.
General Audit Issues:
- Reimbursed Expenses Collateral
