If choosing a tax accountant for your business is
one of the items on your to-do list, you probably
already know that this is a significant decision.
While the wrong accountant can create headaches
for your business, the right professional can
help your business save money and avoid issues
with the IRS. Additionally, a truly talented tax
accountant can play a pivotal role in
understanding the current stage of your business
and making informed decisions about what needs to
be done next. Since there are quite a few
considerations involved in selecting the ideal
business tax accountant, weve put together a
list of questions for you to ask potential CPAs.
By using this helpful list of questions, you can
feel completely confident when the time comes to
make your decision.

What types of clients do you work with?
While there are plenty of good tax accountants
out in the world, the best fits for businesses
are CPAs who have experience in that specific
industry. By finding a tax professional who
understands the industry in which your business
operates, youll be able to put your business
accounting in an ideal position.

Do you work all year long?
Although individuals generally only need CPAs
during tax season, businesses require them
throughout the entire year. Thats why its
important to confirm that your tax accountant
will be available during all 12 months of the
year.
Have you interacted with the IRS?
Whether its a simple discrepancy or a full
audit, theres a good chance that your business
will have to interact with the IRS at some point.
Because you want to minimize the amount of stress
that creates for you, selecting a tax accountant
who has previously dealt with the IRS in a
successful manner is a big plus.

Do you consider yourself conservative or
aggressive as an accountant?
Since tax professionals can fall on both ends of
the spectrum, its important to understand where
a candidate sits so that you can ensure theyre
the right fit with your own philosophy for doing
business.

How do you charge for your services?
Since how much a CPA charges for their services
will have an impact on your decision, its
important to get this information during your
first conversation. Although its generally never
a good idea to go with the cheapest service
provider, you do want to choose an accounting
professional who you feel offers the right value
for what they charge. In addition to getting an
idea of how much their tax accounting services
will cost you, asking this question will also let
you know whats expected of your business in
terms of receiving invoices and paying for
services.
