Sam, a CPA, is representing Fred before the Examination Division of the Internal Revenue Service. The Internal Revenue Service is questioning Fred on his Schedule C gross income that is listed on the 2017 tax return. While reviewing the documentation Fred provided, Sam discovers income that was omitted from the tax return. What is the appropriate action for Sam to take?

Sam must contact Fred and tell him about the omission and the likely consequences of not including it in taxable income.

Explanation:

The CPA member, Sam must contact Fred timely to inform him about the omission and the likely consequences of the omission. Sam must advise him to include this in his taxable income. Fred must be advised that the inclusion of this income is good for both of us because if it is not included and that the Sam didn't reported this tax evasion then Sam will also be held responsible for not reporting tax evasion to tax authorities.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.

answer - matches required natural chemicals
