1) The Internal Revenue Service is part of the Latest Edition - 2025 ✅
A) Congress.
B) Treasury Department.
C) Federal Bureau of Investigation.
D) U.S. Customs Department.
Answer: B
Explanation: The IRS is part of the Treasury Department.
Page Ref.: C:15-2
Objective: 1
2) Explain how the Internal Revenue Service is organized to be efficient and client-oriented.
Answer: The IRS is organized functionally into four divisions: (1) Wage and Investment, (2) Small
Business, (3) Middle Market/Large Corporate, and (4) Tax Exempt. Each division is headed by a
divisional director.
The Wage and Investment Division is responsible for individual taxpayers who report only wage and
investment income. Most of these taxpayers file Forms 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ. The Small Business
Division is responsible for sole proprietors, individuals with supplemental income, and small
corporations and partnerships. Most of these taxpayers file Forms 1065 and 1120S or Schedules C, E, and
F. The Middle Market/Large Corporate Division is responsible for corporations with assets of $5 million
or more. Most of these taxpayers file Form 1120. The tax Exempt Division is responsible for tax-exempt
organizations, employee plans, and state and local governments. Most of these entities file forms relating
to tax exempt status.
The shift to a functional mode of organization reflects Congress's desire to render the IRS more efficient
and client-oriented. Through this mode of organization, tax administrators can focus on their areas of
technical expertise, and taxpayers can deal with the same technical experts wherever they reside.
