The New IRS Field Directive on UNICAP -What It Means for You
WED, NOVEMBER 18, 2009
 
Webinar

Speakers:
Terri Harris, Internal Revenue Service
Paul Metrey, NADA Legal and Regulatory Group
 
 
About the Topic:

On September 15, the IRS Director for the Heavy Manufacturing and Transportation (HMT) Industry issued a memo that provides direction to IRS field examiners on how to conduct UNICAP audits at car and truck dealerships. The unofficial directive contains an audit tool kit and announces the suspension of new UNICAP audits through December 31, 2010 to provide dealers with an opportunity to change their accounting methods in order to comply with a September 2007 technical advice memorandum that involved a franchised car dealer [TAM 200736026]. The Industry Director issued the field directive to address the "high level of taxpayer noncompliance on this issue" and because it represents "the highest compliance risk" to the industry.

So what does this mean for dealers? NADA will tackle this issue in an interactive web seminar that will feature a Powerpoint presentation by IRS Motor Vehicle Technical Advisor Terri Harris. The program will be moderated by Paul Metrey, NADA's Regulatory Affairs Director. At least half of the seminar will be devoted to live questions from the participants to Ms. Harris.
