All of these questions are addressed in a new research study published by the AICPA's PFP Section that can show you how to expand your services into this lucrative niche area that is a great compliment to your tax practice.

AICPA Asks IRS to Modify Form 990 Instructions

RE:     Instructions for Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, Question 75c

 

Dear Mr. Seto:

 

Enclosed are comments prepared by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) regarding a specific set of changes in the Instructions to Line 75c of the 2005 Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax. These comments were developed by the 2005 Form 990 Task Force of the AICPA's Exempt Organizations Technical Resource Panel and approved by the Tax Executive Committee.

 

The AICPA is the national, professional association of CPAs, with approximately 350,000 members, including CPAs in business and industry, public practice, government, and education; student affiliates; and international associates. Our members provide audit and tax services to thousands of not-for-profit organizations. These comments were developed by practitioners who serve tax-exempt organizations and are experienced with both the nuances of the Instructions and the challenges that arise for taxpayers in applying them.

 

We appreciate your consideration of these comments. If you have any questions, please contact me at tpurcell@creighton.edu; Mary Rauschenberg, Chair, Exempt Organizations Technical Resource Panel, at mrauschenberg@deloitte.com; or George White, AICPA Technical Manager, at gwhite@aicpa.org.

 

Sincerely,

 

Thomas J. Purcell III

Chair, AICPA Tax Executive Committee
