Strong sales do not always translate into strong financial health. Many businesses experience pressure not because they are unprofitable, but because cash is not available when it is needed. Payroll, rent, vendor payments, and unexpected expenses all require available funds, regardless of how much revenue may be expected down the road.

Few words make business owners more anxious than “audit.” Yet payroll audits are far more common than most realize—and in many cases, they’re simply routine reviews to ensure taxes and wages are reported correctly.
