Required information Show my Tableau Dashboard Activity 02-1: Individual Tax Return - IRS Examination Coverage (Static) Individual Tax Return - IRS Examination Coverage There are several contributing factors which may ultimately trigger an audit of an Individual income tax return by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). Each year, the IRS publishes a Data Book reporting tax statistics and figures on revenue collection, refunds, tax law enforcement, taxpayer assistance, and more. The Data Book includes Information about returns selected for audit. The following Tableau visualization is a scatter plot produced using the 2019 Internal Revenue Service Data Book Publication 55B individual tax return data from Table 17b: Examination Coverage: Recommended and Average Recommended Additional Tax After Examination, by Type and Size of Return (source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p55b.pdf). Additionally, prior year data has been included for reference (source: 2018 Internal Revenue Service Data Book Publication 55B individual tax return data from Table 9a: Examination Coverage: Recommended and Average Recommended Additional Tax After Examination, by Type and Size of Return https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/p55b-2019.pdf).
