Multiple Choice

Scenario 13.2 Use the following to answer the questions.Kaycee Petit needed to find a new company to prepare her tax return this year. Kaycee looked in the yellow pages of the phone book, and went on the Internet to find information about any tax preparers in the area. She found the names and numbers of several accountants, as well as the popular HR Block and Jackson Hewitt. Since Kaycee had a somewhat complicated financial situation, she decided on using an accountant rather than the two popular companies. Kaycee found the websites of three of the accountants, but the other two were not on the Internet. She visited the offices of the three accounts who had websites. The first office was in a somewhat "seedy" part of town, but had a nice interior and a receptionist. The second office was in a nicer part of town, but did not have any employees other than the accountant, and had old furniture and old carpet. The third office was all around in better condition and Kaycee felt better about its accountant, so she decided on him.

When using an accountant to prepare her tax return, Kaycee really can't determine the level of the accountant's expertise, or whether the accountant actually determined the absolute highest dollar amount Kaycee could have legally received.
