Delayed Rebate-Tax Status of Accrued Rebates - a podcast by edzollarstaxupdate@gmail.com

Accounting issues we often run into involve the differences between tax and GAAP treatment of items, and this week we look at one such case involving the time for recognizing an expense.  In this case, the matter involved rebates and we look at a Chief Counsel Memorandum (ILM 200834019) outlining the IRS's view on why the taxpayer in this case could not recognize the expense related to rebates at the time a sale was made.
