    Hi john.How are you?Hope doing well. I got few issues regarding Transfer pricing which i have listed below.
    Ques. Suppose Company X is based in Uk and it has got a subsidiary Y in France.Y is required to remitt 80% profit to X. Full credit is given by UK tax authorities for tax paid overseas.
    Corporation Tax: UK=30%, France =25%
    Profit before tax(PBT) of Y= $100,000.(We assumes we deal in dollars)
    Witholding tax of 5% needs to be paid by Y for any remittance.
    So my thought process dealing the question is below,
    PBT of Y =$100000
    Tax paid@25% =(25000)
    Profit after tax =$75000
    Remittance to UK= $ 60000
    Witholding tax = $ (3000)
    Profit retaied by Y=$15000( Which is 20% of PAT)
    FOR X though,
    They received = $55000(Net of witholding tax)
    Extra tax to be paid =$( 3750)
    (75000*.05%)
    Net Cash flow from =$ 51250
    ( Y )
    Am i correct on this John? I am confused like Do X will get any tax credit for witholding tax paid by Y on the X remittance so basically Y is paying 25%+5%=30%.So there should not be extra 5% paid by X to uk tax authorities.Or we assume X don’t get tax credit for any witholding tax paid by Y and the the above procedure i mentioned is correct.
    Thank you.

    It seems you are right at a quick look, but I am sorry – I really do not have the time to work through it all in great detail.
