  • Accounting for the U.S. Iran War

    Accounting for the U.S. Iran War
    Mar 9 2026
    What do tariffs, war, AI agents, and a collapsed accounting startup have in common? This week, Blake and David connect the dots between rising economic pressure and rapid tech change. They break down the lopsided cost of drone warfare, small businesses getting crushed by tariffs, AI tools handling tax and bookkeeping tasks, and new details on Botkeeper’s collapse. You’ll hear what these shifts could mean for accountants, firms, and the future of the profession.SponsorsUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casChapters(01:27) - Sponsor Break UNC (02:46) - War Costs and Drones (08:58) - GPT 5.4 for Accountants (11:13) - AI Agent Files City Tax (15:23) - Claude Skill for Tax Prep (17:11) - Sponsor Break OnPay (18:55) - Gemini Makes Theme Music (22:33) - Uber CEO AI Clone (24:22) - Botkeeper Collapse Follow Up (31:13) - QuickBooks Integration Doubts (31:53) - Cloud Accountant Staffing Spot (32:59) - KPMG Earnings Leak Theory (37:23) - Zapier AI Guardrails (39:43) - 401k Hardship Withdrawals Rise (43:02) - Tariff Refunds and AI Lawsuits (46:27) - Trump v Trump IRS Lawsuit (48:43) - IRS Union Contract Termination (50:01) - Direct File Act Returns (51:56) - Meta 16B Tax Fight (54:33) - Trump Accounts Auto Enrollment (56:13) - Accounting Degrees Loan Limits (57:39) - CPE App and Sign Off Show NotesIran's Drones Cost a Fraction of the U.S. Weapons Shooting Them Down https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/business/iran-drones-us-weapons-cost.html Introducing GPT-5.4 https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5-4/ Breaking Up with TurboTax: How I Used Claude to File My Taxes for Free https://kachess.dev/taxes/ai/personal-finance/2026/02/27/breaking-up-with-turbotax.html Show HN: Claude Skill to Do Your Taxes https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47277164 Enrico Palmerino Explains Botkeeper's Fall https://www.accountingtoday.com/news/enrico-palmerino-explains-botkeepers-fall Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi Has an AI Clone https://www.fastcompany.com/91500087/uber-ceo-dara-khosrowshahi-has-an-ai-clone KPMG-Audited Companies Are Trading Strangely on Polymarket https://eventwaves.substack.com/p/kpmg-audited-companies-are-trading Zapier Updates: AI Guardrails & Governance Controls https://zapier.com/blog/february-2026-product-updates/ Record Numbers of Workers Are Raiding Their 401(k) Savings https://www.wsj.com/personal-finance/retirement/401k-hardship-withdrawals-record-vanguard-2025 For Some Small Businesses, a Tariff Refund Isn't Worth the Pain of Pursuing It https://finance.yahoo.com/news/small-businesses-tariff-refund-isnt-worth-pain-pursuing-it.html Trump's IRS Lawsuit Offers Lessons on Privacy and Legal Process https://news.bloombergtax.com/tax-insights-and-commentary/trumps-irs-lawsuit-offers-lessons-on-privacy-and-legal-process Democrats Unveil Bill to Resurrect Direct File https://www.accountingtoday.com/news/democrats-unveil-bill-to-resurrect-direct-file I.R.S.

  • The AI Agent That Can Do A Partnership Tax Return

    The AI Agent That Can Do A Partnership Tax Return
    Mar 3 2026
    Can an AI prep a partnership return on its own? Blake and David dig into Basis’s $100M unicorn claim, Intuit’s OpenAI/Anthropic tie-ups and Claude Cowork, and what it means for firms. They also cover how to capitalize on tariff refund lawsuits, the Senate’s push to regulate tax preparers, and the SEC weighing twice-a-year reporting—plus a quick warning about the fake “IRS locker” scam. You’ll learn where AI helps now, what to watch, and how to advise clients.SponsorsCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncChapters(00:00) - Welcome and Headlines(01:51) - Sponsor Cloud Staffing(03:10) - Tariffs Legal Fallout(05:50) - Refund Lawsuit Wave(09:02) - Basis AI Unicorn(15:23) - Intuit Earnings AI Blitz(25:59) - Claude Cowork Automation(32:16) - Managing Agents at Work(34:21) - AI PR Pay Boom(36:46) - AI Agents for Accounting(37:39) - SaaS Giants vs AI(39:01) - Finance Grade AI Trust(41:22) - IBM COBOL Shockwave(43:03) - Audit Enforcement Drop(44:34) - Regulating Tax Preparers(45:40) - Twice a Year Reporting(48:36) - Prediction Market Tax Bet(50:43) - Washington CPA Outsourcing(54:37) - IRS Onboarding Fumbles(55:32) - Crypto Fat Finger Disaster(01:00:01) - IRS Locker Scam Warning(01:02:13) - Livestream Q&A Wrap(01:06:19) - Book and Earmark Outro Show NotesSupreme Court Strikes Down Trump's Sweeping Tariffshttps://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-strikes-trumps-tariffs-major-blow-president-rcna244827Trump's New Tariffs Under Section 122 Are Probably Also Illegalhttps://edition.cnn.com/2026/03/01/business/trump-tariffs-supreme-court-section-1221,800+ Companies Suing for $130 Billion in Tariff Refundshttps://www.entrepreneur.com/growing-a-business/1800-companies-are-suing-for-130b-in-tariff-refunds/503034AI-for-Accounting Startup Basis Hits $1.15 Billion Valuationhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-24/ai-for-accounting-startup-basis-hits-1-15-billion-valuationIntuit and Anthropic Partner to Bring Custom AI Agents to Consumers and Businesseshttps://investors.intuit.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/1305/intuit-and-anthropic-partner-to-bring-trusted-financial-intelligence-and-custom-ai-agents-to-consumers-and-businessesIntuit Q2 2026 Earnings Call Transcripthttps://www.fool.com/earnings/call-transcripts/2026/02/26/intuit-intu-q2-2026-earnings-call-transcript/IBM Shares Plunge as Anthropic Touts COBOL Modernization Effortshttps://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/23/ibm-is-the-latest-ai-casualty-shares-are-tanking-on-anthropic-cobol-threat.htmlAI Won't Replace Accounting Platforms — It Will Make Them More Importanthttps://diginomica.com/ai-wont-replace-accounting-platforms-it-will-make-them-more-importantAudit Enforcement Plummeted Last Yearhttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/audit-enforcement-plummeted-last-yearSenate Finance Committee Proposes to Regulate Tax Preparers, Improve IRS Administrationhttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/senate-finance-committee-proposes-to-regulate-tax-preparers-improve-irs-administrationSEC to Fast-Track Proposal for Semi-Annual Public Company Reportinghttps://www.cohenmilstein.com/sec-to-propose-rule-easing-financial-reporting-frequency-from-quarterly-to-semiannual/Tax Nerd Bets Life Savings Against DOGE on Kalshi — and Winshttps://techcrunch.com/2026/02/25/an-accountant-won-a-big-jackpot-on-kalshi-by-betting-against-doge/Should We Be Concerned That More Than Half of New CPA Licenses in Washington State Went to International Candidates?https://www.goingconcern.com/should-we-be-concerned-that-more-than-half-of-new-cpa-licenses-issued-in-this-state-last-year-went-to-international-candidates/IRS Failed to Equip New Hires in 2024https://www.accountingtoday.com/news/irs-failed-to-equip-new-hires-in-2024South Korean Crypto Exchange Bithumb Accidentally Gives Away $40+ Billion in Bitcoinhttps://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/07/south-korean-crypto-firm-accidentally-sends-out-44-billion-in-bitcoin.htmlMichigan Man Loses $1 Million in IRS Impersonation Scamhttps://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2026/02/23/michigan-man-loses-1-million-in-irs-scam/178591/Need CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!

  • Tariff Refund Opportunity for Accountants & Taxpayers Don't Trust AI

    Tariff Refund Opportunity for Accountants & Taxpayers Don't Trust AI
    Feb 24 2026
    SCOTUS just struck down Trump’s global tariffs—so who gets the $133B back, and how can firms capture advisory fees helping clients claim refunds? Blake and David unpack importer-of-record refunds, contingency-fee questions, and why “that’s pure profit.” Plus: taxpayers’ trust in AI tax prep is falling, creators’ $205B economy is a prime niche, TurboTax’s Uber-to-the-office play, Big Law’s $3,400/hour AI squeeze, and Dawn Brolin’s nonprofit sending first-timers to conferences you can support.SponsorsDigits - http://accountingpodcast.promo/digitsCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncChapters(00:00) - TAP 476(02:53) - Who Gets the Tariff Refunds?
