The final paper must be submitted to Dropbox no later than 11:59 p.m., March 2. Students are encouraged to work with the Writing Center. The rubric for the paper will be available in D2L and will be discussed in class. The paper should focus on some aspect of ethical guidelines for tax professionals and should include a discussion of Circular 230, the AICPA SSTS, or the IRC penalty codes.You may choose to discuss all three ethical guidelines or your paper may examine one of these guidelines or compare and contrast two of the guidelines. Please note that a paper which addresses the ethical requirements for accountants or auditors will NOT meet the requirements for this class.
