BIR Concerns

[rstranger]

Need some enlightenment on different terms on corporate taxes - input tax, output tax, creditable tax withheld.

 

tsaka, bakit minsan pag binigyan ka ng invoice at humingi ka ng OR, sasabihin ng vendor na pwede na yung invoice. Its like they are giving me an option pag gusto mo OR ala invoice, or pag may invoice naman ala OR.

pls help. We are operating this small electrical services company for about 2 years na. it was found out last month ng isang staff namin na may discrepancy sa vat reg no. sa resibo (OR) na pina print namin 2 years ago ( with BIR stamp) sa actual registration number na nasa cert. This is an honest to goodness mistake kasi di naman namin alam na mali pala ang pagkaka print. Ano gagawin namin? mga 2 booklets pa lang naman nai issue namin. tnx

The right to credit input tax as against the output tax is clearly a privilege created by law, a privilege that also the law can limit.  It should be stressed that a person has no vested right in statutory privileges.

i understand the concept of privielege granted by law which is always subject to limitation by government, maybe because of its police power or in this case power to tax...

 

but my question is of practical application...wouldn't the forward crediting lead to a point wherein a) the basis of quarterly input VAT is of differing basis that the forward crediting would lead to an absurd conclusion that one cannot credit anymore because all of the forward credit has eaten up the 100% vat credit?

 

foir example for Q1, since the input exceeds the output tax by let's say 40%, then the allowed creditable would be 70%, hence the forward credit would be 70% of the previous, which effectively eats up the allowable 100% creditable VAT in Q2...

 

thanks shadowfang for the case...

Question lang po ... is there a way that I can file for a lower deduction on my taxes. At present I'm being deducted 15% from my salary, similar to what is being deducted to those earning professional fees eg. doctors - movie stars

Mate for VAT purposes it is important that you know what supporting documents you need to claim the VAT that you paid... If you acquire sale of services the supporting documents is the OR, and if sales of goods the supporting documents is the invoice...

Pa-print ka na lang ulet ng OR mo.. Just make sure the following

 

1. Secure an Authority to Print (ATP) with the printing company (this is a BIR form)

2. VAT should be shown a as separate item.

3. If sales is exempt or zero-rated, the term VAT exempt sale or zero rated sale shall be written or printed prominently on the invoice or receipt.

4. If sales involve VAT, zero rated, exempt, there should be a breakdown of such in the invoice or rceipt or issue separte invoice or receipts.

firstly what is your occupation? that in itself determines what tax bracket you fall under...

 

secondly, what are your expenses in the pursuit of your occupation? this determines what are considered tax deductible items and as such would help lower the tax base subject to the 15% tax rate as you have said...

 

just my two cents (walang VAT yan ha!)

tanong ko lang po kung papano kumuha ng TIN id? pwede po pm niyo ko? thanks!

firstly, do you sign agreements for each project you enter into? now, do the people that hire you an each project impose a witholding tax on your contract price? make sure that you are provided a copy of the voucher where the witholding tax is indicated...come april, ask for a witholding tax certification from the companies you had worked with, this shall form part of your income tax return...since you already have credits earned as per income tax, determine if your gross income tax (taken from the table of the income tax return) is equal or less than the certified tax witheld...if less or equal then there is no need for you to pay any more tax...

 

now, since you are on a project basis, if your expenses are all within the project proposal then there is nothing more you can deduct...still unsure if the expenses during the lean months can be deductible as an operating expense...it's a way but you still have to check that with an accountant for sure...
