In the absence of this labor-intensive, <br /> time-consuming effort,significant misallocations may remain undetected. <br /> Permitization Audits: Permitization Audits enable the identification and correction of improperly <br /> registered permits for companies having point-of-sale or use operations in the City. Wholesalers, <br /> contractors, manufacturers and other non-retail businesses will frequently not have a sales or use <br /> tax permit properly registered to the City in which they are located because SBE records may <br /> indicate their business operations do not include a point-of-sale qualifying activity. However,these <br /> companies will often generate local sales and use tax from new or changed operations, the self- <br /> accrual of use tax on purchases through direct payment permits, and SBE audit deficiency <br /> assessments. <br /> Quarterlv Distribution Report (QDR) Audits: The QDR Audit enables MuniServices to conduct the <br /> QDR audit each and every quarter to minimize the potential of lost revenue to the City. <br /> MuniServices QDR audits have the same objective as the Taxable IVexus Field Audit and <br /> ATTY/AGR/2015.101/MUNISERVICE LLC <br />
