As you can see, for 2014 of all the returns filed (192,000,000) only 0.7% were actually audited. However, actual audit chances are based on where your income is for the year. This table is from the IRS Data Book. The first column represents a persons adjusted gross income. The second column is how many returns were filed in that group divided by total returns filed. The last column shows how many returns were audited in that group.
So, if you had $10,000,000 or more of adjusted gross income, the IRS audited 34.69 percent of your group. The $50,000 to $70,000 group had the lowest chance of being selected at just 0.47 percent.
It is interesting to see such a high coverage on people who had no adjusted gross income.
