R&D tax credit studies help companies secure cash from credits and incentives in recognition of their innovative products, services and activities. When a R&D study is well prepared, it represents a low-risk endeavor that usually generates a strong ROI for the taxpayer. However, when the study is not well prepared, it can be high risk and have a low ROI.

This podcast shares what to consider when selecting your R&D study provider to ensure you receive the best quality services at fair prices. It also revisits the relevance of Circular 230 as well as IRS guidance on amended returns, contrasting the approaches taken by a CPA firm and a boutique firm. Marty Karamon, Leader of Cherry Bekaert’s Tax Credits & Incentives Advisory Group, is joined by Ron Wainwright and Dan Mennel, both Tax Partners in the Firm’s Tax Credits & Incentives Advisory Group, to discuss the benefits of working with a CPA firm to perform your tax credits and incentives projects.

This podcast is the first in a series of episodes focusing on the news and nuances of tax credits and incentives for businesses.
