Amongst other things, tax payers including companies have to manage their cash and assets reserves in an optimum and efficient manner in order to carry on business. All the efforts may come to naught if the company has not been fulfilling its obligation as a taxpayer diligently and carefully.


In some instances, as a result of tax audits or investigations carried out the inland revenue board, the additional tax and penalties that are imposed on the companies leave them facing a great dilemma as there may be insufficient funds available to settle the tax liabilities.
