FUNDAMENTALS OF TAXATION Nature
Taxation is the power by which the sovereign state raises revenue to defray the necessary expenses of government. It is the life and strength of the govt because no govt can survive without it. System of Taxation
Global System applies a uniform rate regardless of the amount of tax base. (CGT, Percentage Tax, VAT) Schedular System applies variable rates which generally behave proportionately with the changes in the tax base. (Income Tax, Donors/Estate Tax) Escape from Taxation (ESCATE)
Exemption grant of immunity, express or implied to a particular person/s or corporations of a particular class from a tax upon property or an exercise which persons and corporations generally within the same taxing district are obliged to pay. (CREDIT) - Credit (tax) (excess Input Tax) - Reciprocity application - Exclusions of certain items from taxable amounts (13th month pay, minimum wage earners) - Deductions allowed from gross taxable amounts (Personal & Additional Exemption; 40% OSD or Itemized Deduction) - Income tax sparing rule observation - Tax Treaty

Shifting refers to the transfer of the tax burden by the person on whom it is imposed by law to another who bears it.
- Forward Shifting transfer of tax from factor of production , to distribution until the burden finally rests with the consumer. (increase in selling price). e.g. VAT paid by the Buyer/Consumer VAT on Prof. Fees paid by the RE Broker - Backward Shifting transfer of tax from the point of consumption through the factors of distribution to the factors of production. (decrease in selling price) e.g. VAT shouldered by the Developer/Seller VAT on Prof. Fees (RESP) paid by the Developer - Onward Shifting occurs when the tax is shifted two or more time either forward or backward. Capitalization is a form of backward shifting whereby future taxes on property sold
are capitalized at the time of purchase and deducted in lump from the selling price. The taxes are shifted backward from the buyer to the seller, resulting in a reduction in price.
AVOIDANCE legal means to lessen or avoid tax by taking advantage of the loopholes of the law. (e.g. Corporate buy-out; Special Power of Atty; Public Auction due to Real Property Tax Delinquency; Tax Free Exchange)
Transformation effected through the process of production where the producer pays the tax and recovers his additional expense by improving his method of production.
