VALUE-BASED PRICING
Typically, CPA firms determine their service charges by the time spent on providing them, known as "time-billing" or "hourly-billing". However, at my firm, I have embraced an alternative approach to pricing called "value-based" pricing. This pricing strategy centers around the value generated from the services rendered, taking into consideration factors such as the complexity and scope of the engagement.

TAX COLLECTION REPRESENTATION
Tax collection services are priced at a rate of $175 per hour, covering a range of tax-related issues. This includes back taxes, payroll tax liability representation, penalty abatement, and state tax representation.
AUDIT REPRESENTATION
The cost of representation for a tax audit varies significantly depending on the complexity of your case. Audit representation fees can be charged either as an hourly rate or a flat fee. Generally, flat fees will be charged for straightforward cases whereas hourly fees will be charged for complex cases that may require a lot of additional work.
Average hourly rate for tax audit services starts at $300. If charged as a flat fee, your total tax audit representation cost could be anywhere between $2,500 and $10,000 per tax year under examination. It may go even higher if your case goes to the U.S. Tax Court.
