Sales tax recovery reviews, sometimes known as sales tax reverse audits are a great way to generate cash flow at any time, but the disruption Covid-19 has caused worldwide has forced many businesses to reevaluate. Will reopening generate the volume of sales businesses had pre-Covid-19? Will our economy tip into a recession? Will businesses be forced to trim costs or even payroll to remain profitable? Businesses are facing these and many other pressing questions over the coming months. One thing is certain, businesses have found ways to adapt and do more with less over the past 10+ weeks. Maybe it is time to reconsider recovering overpaid sales taxes.
