Context 4

Context Unusual reporting

“RETIREMENT” ($140,000) doesn't name the institution

Intangible assets should name the entity they relate to.

What to check
  • Which bank, company or fund is this?

Rule: Asset without a named institution
“Do not list simply "stocks and bonds" or "bank accounts."”2022 Form 6 instructions, Assets (quote not found in this year's instructions) · how this rule works

Context Unusual reporting

All 4 asset values are round numbers

Every listed asset is valued in round thousands, which suggests estimates rather than statements or appraisals. That's allowed, but it makes the totals less precise.

What to check
  • Are bank or brokerage balances (which are exact) rounded too?

Rule: All values are round numbers

How this rule works

Net worth $430,500; listed items add up to $905,500

Reported net worth: $430,500. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $905,500. The difference matches the household goods, which the filer may have left out of net worth.

What to check
