RE: Tax return preparation
MEMORANDUM
WriteRight, Inc. has engaged us to prepare its 2012 Federal (but not state) income tax return. Your responsibilities are as follows:
1. Prepare WriteRight, Inc.’s 2012 Federal income tax return, Form 1120, including any supporting information and forms that you feel are necessary. All necessary tax forms (e.g., Form 1120) and the related instructions may be obtained via the IRS web site (www.irs.gov). Unless otherwise indicated in the attached information, you should reduce taxable income as much as possible.
2. Write a letter to Russ Engle, the Treasurer of WriteRight, Inc., that includes instructions on how to file the return (where, when, etc.) and summarizing how much is owed as well as brief explanations of our treatment of any items that might surprise Mr. Engle (he knows GAAP quite well but doesn’t know much about tax rules and regulations...). Further, if estimated tax payments are necessary for 2013, instruct Mr. Engle on how and when to make them.
To aid you in this task, the 2011 and 2012 financial statements and related accounting information for WriteRight, Inc. are included as an attachment to this memorandum.
