How our services reduce your
tax liabilities and drive greater efficiencies

The Usual Approach

1. YOU RENDER YOUR BPP’S COST & AGE

The method most companies and consultants use to report their assets and inventory, which is then valued by tax jurisdictions using outdated mass appraisal models to set values you are taxed against.

2. APPRAISAL DISTRICT SENDS ASSESSMENT NOTICES

Values are determined using typically inflated depreciation tables reflecting values above true fair market that never go to zero as GAAP allows.

3. YOU MAY OR MAY NOT APPEAL

Businesses often accept these inflated values not knowing their rights to file fair market, or they appeal each season embarking in costly review board hearings to perpetually fight assessed values.

4. YOU FILE YOUR TAXES

Taxes are filed, confirming agreement to the cost & age inflated values rendered, those values are set for the year, and property tax is paid.

The Better Approach

1. YOU RENDER YOUR BPP’S MARKET VALUE

In states where applicable, values are rendered leveraging 3rd party appraisal data for fair market value (which is typically 30% below the taxing jurisdiction’s mass appraisal tables) instead of filing cost & age.

2. APPRAISAL DISTRICT SENDS ASSESSMENT NOTICES

Based on applicable tax laws, taxing jurisdiction’s are required to compare values rendered against supporting market value data for like and similar property.

3. TAX VALUES ARE ALIGNED TO JUSTIFIABLE AMOUNTS

Values are aligned with verified ASA-certified fair market values and rendered based on like and similar assets and/or code definition of inventory.

4. YOU FILE YOUR TAXES

Taxes are filed against aligned values considering a good faith estimate of market value, confirming the taxing jurisdiction’s acceptance of rendered values. Those values are set for the year, and lower taxes are paid.

BONUS
5. YOU NOW HAVE A RESOURCE TO SUPPORT ANY APPEALS OR LITIGATION

TAG renders values, addresses alignment concerns with taxing jurisdictions, and or appeals/litigates on your behalf.
