Taxation is the main topic for ACCA F6. Accountants are introduced to the concepts of the tax system. Taxation requires an individual to possess strong research skills and be able to adapt to the constant changing of rules and regulations. Tax accountants should also have a good interpersonal skill that can help dealing with clients without a tax background. In order to maintain client confidence, a person must be able to simplify complex taxation problems.
Taxation includes:
Internal Revenue Code
The internal revenue code acts as a guideline in the accounting for individual and corporate tax returns. It is a complex document that contains over 3.7 million words and it changes frequently. Every law that is passed on congress can have an effect on the internal revenue code. A tax accountant is deemed to be knowledgeable of these changes and have to continually learn the code.
Financial Accounting
ACCA F6 also includes some aspect of financial accounting since tax accountants need financial reports in order to compute for tax returns. Many companies use different valuation methods in reporting their tax, so it is important to be knowledgeable in the different methods used.
General business Knowledge
A tax accountant�s job does not end with providing the company with tax returns. Often, clients will also ask for the accountant�s advice on a year-round tax planning. It is therefore important to be able to understand the consequences of the recommendations given.
