DESCRIPTION: Lunch &amp\; Learn Webinar Presented by: MGO and Smith Patrick
  CPA Thursday May 8th\, 2025 12:00pm -1:15pm The Missouri Department of 
 Revenue (DOR) has opened the first set of audits of Missouri dispensaries.
  These audits will cover sales tax\, cannabis tax\, use tax\, and state 
 withholding. DOR plans to audit all dispensaries in the coming months. In 
 this lunch and learn we will outline the audit process and explore the 
 mechanics of each tax type. We will also examine technical issues around 
 the statute of limitations\, jurisdiction\, sampling\, and look at 
 cannabis-specific issues related to tax stacking and Management 
 Agreements. This webinar will conclude with suggestions on preparing for 
 the audit and leave ample time for participant Q&amp\;A. Speaker Bios:
