Tax accounting skills are highly valued in the market place, often more highly than tax compliance skills. The rules that must be followed come from multiple sources. Not only does it require a thorough understanding of the U.S. GAAP financial accounting rules (ASC 740) and SEC requirements, but also requires a deep understanding of tax technical laws, rules and regulations – which are often not static and vary between federal and state and local jurisdictions.
