The question in the 80′s used to be, “How far can I push it before I get audited?” However, with increased IRS enforcement, it’s now important to ask, “Will I pass an IRS audit?”
The IRS today now uses sophisticated statistical analysis with modern technology that identifies tax returns likely to yield an additional tax liability assessment.
In other words, if your numbers don’t make sense, the computers can detect these out-of-whack ratios with ease. What this means practically is that you can’t play the “audit lottery” anymore. The computers are just too good.
