U.S. businesses conducting foreign activities and foreign businesses conducting U.S. activities require specialized accounting services to compute their taxable profits. Fortunately, we understand both the financial and tax rules of accounting for U.S. tax purposes.
We are accustomed to analyzing non-U.S. GAAP financial statements and converting them into IRS prescribed formats. Our working knowledge of accounting theory allows us to understand the transactions and capital structures of international businesses thereby allowing us to make key recommendations concerning profit repatriation, subpart F, characterization of intercompany transactions, cost/profit allocation, and other international tax planning matters.
