CCH Audio Seminar Looks At Areas Where Taxes, Accounting, Auditing Overlap

(RIVERWOODS, ILL., December 6, 2006) – CCH, a Wolters Kluwer business and a leading provider of tax information, software and services is presenting a 100-minute audio seminar entitled “The Growing Overlap of Tax, Accounting and Auditing Issues” on Friday, December 8, 2006 at 2 p.m. Eastern; 1 p.m. Central (CCHGroup.com).

Mark Luscombe, JD, LL.M., CPA and Cherie Hennig, Ph.D., CPA will examine the growing number of laws, standards and pronouncements from the tax, accounting and auditing sectors that have an impact beyond their own area and overlap with other sectors of practice. These include FAS 109 and FIN 48, SOX Section 404 internal control rules, the requirements associated with Schedule M-3 and more .

This seminar discusses what has been happening at the intersection of tax, financial accounting and auditing – the current regulatory environment, the compliance burdens and necessities and the increased need for tax, accounting and audit professionals to understand how each other’s roles and rules affect the other.  

Program Agenda

Luscombe and Hennig will explore some of recent accounting standards and tax developments at the nexus between tax, accounting and financial reporting, including:

  • The new tax reporting requirements associated with Schedule M-3;
  • Reportable transactions under Reg. Sec. 1.6011-4 and Form 8886;
  • Certifications under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, particularly Section 404internal control certifications;
  • PCAOB Rules 3520 through 3524 with respect to auditor independence and the provision of tax services;
  • The expanding role of the audit committee with respect to tax practice under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
  • FIN 48 – New Interpretations of FASB 109, Accounting for Income Taxes;
  • Other accounting releases with a direct impact on the tax treatment of those areas:
    • IASB 12 – Convergence with international standards
    • FASB 123 – Accounting for Stock-based Compensation
    • FASB 132R – Disclosures relating to pensions and other post-retirement benefits
  • Other new developments in Tax Accounting and Accounting for Taxes; and
  • A look at the practical impact of these changes on tax return preparation.
