Fiscal compliance rules
Tax laws are the body of statutes, regulations, and legal precedents governing how governments levy and collect taxes.

Tax laws vary by jurisdiction and change frequently, creating a specialized field where accountants and lawyers help individuals and businesses minimize what they owe: The new tax laws favor capital gains over ordinary income.
