Pretty hard jump. Be prepared to get wrecked, like drinking from a fire hose. Can’t imagine how an audit manager gets thrown into m&a deals with no deal experience and dealing with PE firms and c-suite leading calls. Not impossible, but tough.

What do you mean by thoughts? Did you see a job posting you’re planning on applying to, or do you already have an offer in hand? I switched from PwC in core tax to M&A Tax at KPMG and have enjoyed my time at the firm so far, but of course there are pros and cons like anything else.

Saw a job posting online

Not impossible. If you got the offer, take it. Be prepared for a steep learning curve tho (bigger than Senior Audit to Senior FDD).

why not just switch to PwC CMAAS?

What's a rule you are expected to enforce that you strongly disagree with or are indifferent to. Do you enforce it or take the risk? I move around as a tutor and am currently working with a school that has a ridiculously strict formal address policy. One of my second graders refers to me as "Miss Tutoring (my first name)" - it's about the cutest thing ever and doesn't bother me one bit. We are moderated sometimes and I'm more worried about her getting in trouble than me for not abiding.

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?

Hi tax 🐠,

I have a question for those who prep individual tax returns. My parents claim my grandfather as a dependent on their tax return and due to their low income, receive PTC for the premiums they pay on his insurance (not eligible for medicare). However, would it be advantageous to have him file for his own tax return (he stays with my parents and doesn't have his own proof of residency via bills). If so, can he get PTC if his income is 0?
