Record Keeping Essential By the Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia Will your income tax records stand up'in a court of Jaw? tea lost taxpayers never end up in a taxation court case — and don't want to. The income tax act sta- tes that every person car- rying on bualness and every person required to pay tax- es shall keep the records necessary to determine tax- es payable. Furthermore, if a person fails to keep ade- quate records, the depart- ments of natfonal revenue may speclfy what records a tawpayer required to keep. ‘ Adequate records are important.
