Wipfli can help you understand the strategic implications of reshoring and identify new opportunities, find new sources for your parts in the U.S. or North American markets, and navigate the impact of tariffs on automation equipment and machinery.

We help you develop tariff tracking mechanisms and scenario planning exercises, support financial modeling for each critical purchasing decision, and determine the impact of new and future tariffs on your financial statements.

Wipfli helps determine which states subject the tariff portion of a good or part to sales and use tax and how tariffs will impact your profitability in each filing jurisdiction. We produce a bridge analysis between IRS transfer pricing methods/requirements and U.S. Customs transfer pricing valuation methods. Through it, you can determine the appropriate arm鈥檚 length price for intercompany sales acceptable to both IRS and CBP.

We can analyze options for unbundling the dutiable value of goods, which improves customs and TP compliance by helping ensure duties are not paid on non-dutiable elements and supports accurate functional segmentation and benchmarking. Wipfli can also help evaluate other methods of accounting, such as LIFO, to assess potential tax savings.

We can help you develop a sales process framework to capitalize on reshoring and identify opportunities, both within the U.S. and internationally, as part of strategic planning. Our sales process team can also help augment your sales team to strategize how the tariffs can work in favor of your business.
