Trump's Tax Plans, IRS PPS Fraud, & PCAOB Drama
The Accounting Podcast
Fraudulent Schemes and Solutions in Accounting
This chapter explores the ease of IRS-targeted fraud due to weak authentication processes, along with the difficulties faced in hiring within the accounting sector. It also features advertisements for Cloud Accountant Staffing and Artifex, highlighting solutions for labor shortages and bookkeeping automation.
Blake and David dive into the economic implications of Trump's election victory, including proposed tariffs that could significantly impact businesses and inflation. They explore potential tax changes under a new Trump administration, from corporate rate reductions to the elimination of the SALT cap. They also examines an alarming $47 million IRS fraud scheme targeting tax practitioners and debate the future of Bitcoin as speculation grows about a potential national Bitcoin reserve.
