In Sensitive of revenue question MJ22 Q1biii, can I calculate as following order and gain full marks:
Sale ( ED )
Tax 20% paid in Elan( ED)
Additional 10 % paid in Marteg (ED)
Sale after tax(ED)
Sale after tax(M$))
PV of sale after tax
% of selling price for investment to have zero NPVIn marking scheme, there are 2 marks award for additional tax in Marteg in M$.
Could I get 2 marks for calculation of Additional 10 % paid in Marteg (ED) as above ?Thank you.
December 30, 2023 at 12:14 pm #697504Please answer my question.
Other person sent the questions later than mine but has received the answer sooner.January 1, 2024 at 4:42 pm #697571Sorry – I obviously missed seeing your question (and then I have been away for two days because of New Year) 🙁
I am not sure that I understand. what you are asking because the only affect in Marteg of changing the selling price is the extra tax payable in Marteg, and for that there are 2 marks.
January 2, 2024 at 3:16 am #697587In the answer, 10% additional tax in Marteg is firstly calculated in ED, after that it is converted to M$.
The same approach is applied for sale and tax on Elan.
My approach is that calculate all figures in ED (including of 10% additional tax in Marteg) , and after that convert the result to M$.
My question is that will I be awarded 2 mark for the calculation of 10% additional tax in Marteg by this approach ?
January 2, 2024 at 8:29 am #697592Now I understand you, and yes – you would get the 2 marks 🙂
February 14, 2024 at 2:54 pm #700343In the question, Pryso will pay 20% tax in Elan, but it is exempt for first two years.
Pryso will pay 30% tax in Marteg.
A bi lateral tax treaty exist between 2 countries, hence Pryso must pay additional 10% tax in Marteg.
But In the year 1, Pryso has profit, and exempt. So I understand that it must pay full 30% tax in Marteg ?
Why in the answer, Pryso will pay only addition 10% of tax ?February 15, 2024 at 9:15 am #700396The question specifically says that under the terms of the tax treaty they will be assumed to have paid tax at 20%. Whether they did pay at 20% is irrelevant because the treaty says that it will be assumed for the purposes of the treaty that they had paid it.
