It contains important management information for comparing a company’s tax performance vis-à-vis others in the industry. It will also provide the Bureau with a basis for the selection of companies for audit considering that it is the Bureau’s policy to focus its audit effort on less compliant taxpayers. We would therefore appreciate receiving feedback from you on the accuracy of the data reflected herein. Early detection and verification of unusual deviations particularly from the benchmarks will be to the mutual benefit of your organization and the Bureau. Very truly yours, Commissioner of Internal Revenue Commissioner of Internal Revenue
