O imposto de renda e a juridicização da contabilidade: o conceito de renda no direito tributário e suas relações com a ciência contábil / The income tax and the accounting in the law: the concepto f income in tax law and their relation with accouting scienceFábio Lima da Cunha 11 March 2013 (has links)
O imposto de renda, em seus mais variados aspectos e particularidades, tem se mostrado um dos temas mais complexos e debatidos pela doutrina especializada e pelos tribunais ao redor do mundo. No Brasil, jurisdição em que o Sistema Tributário Nacional encontra-se ampla e rigidamente arquitetado pela Constituição Federal, o tema ganha especiais contornos, dada a necessidade de fiel compatibilidade entre a legislação infraconstitucional e os limites minuciosamente desenhados pelo constituinte. A presente pesquisa pretende entrar nessa seara para abordar o intrigante binômio aspecto material e base de cálculo do imposto de renda das pessoas jurídicas. No que tange ao aspecto material, investigaremos o grau de influência da rigidez do Sistema Constitucional Tributário sobre a composição dos elementos que caracterizam a renda constitucionalmente tributável. Nesse mister, será necessário discorrer sobre as teorias que propugnam pela ampla liberdade do legislador infraconstitucional para estabelecer o significado de renda (teoria legalista) até aquelas que apontam pouca (ou nenhuma) autorização para construção do conceito de renda no âmbito infraconstitucional, eis que isso seria matéria eminentemente constitucional. E assim se fará para que, posteriormente, viabilize-se o cotejamento entre a renda constitucionalmente tributável e o lucro contábil apurado de acordo com a legislação societária, eis que, tradicionalmente, é esse o ponto de partida para a apuração da base de cálculo do imposto de renda das pessoas jurídicas. Para tanto, será preciso analisar as funções e os usuários da contabilidade, identificando a atual perspectiva e os critérios que guiam a elaboração dos relatórios contábeis. Feito isso, tratar-se á de responder a seguinte indagação: poderia o legislador tributário brasileiro adotar o modelo de dependência total, isto é, adotar o lucro contábilsocietário como base de cálculo do imposto de renda das pessoas jurídicas sem nenhuma correção ou limitação no seu processo de determinação, como acontece em alguns países? Em última análise, analisar-se-á criticamente se o lucro contábil, juridicizado que foi pelo Direito Societário e Tributário, confirmaria ou infirmaria o aspecto material do indigitado tributo a teor do Texto Magno. / The income tax, in its various aspects and particularities, can be considered as one of the most complex and discussed issues by specialized doctrine and courts around the world. In Brazil, a jurisdiction that the National Tax System is comprehensive and almost tightly provided by the Federal Constitution, the issue gains special contours, specially about the compatibility between ordinary legislation and the limits provided by the constituent. This study intends to going through in this matter in order to discuss the intriguing binomial taxable event (material aspect of taxable event) and taxable basis of corporate income tax. Regarding to the taxable event, this study will investigate the influence of the Constitutional Tax System on the composition of the elements that characterize the constitutionally taxable income. At this point, it will be necessary discuss the theories that advocate the wide freedom of ordinary legislature to establish the significance of income (legalistic theory) and those theories that advocate little (if any) authorization to construct the concept of income by ordinary legislature under the argument that this matter would be eminently constitutional. And it will be done in order to make possible the comparison between constitutionally taxable income and accounting income determined in accordance with Brazilian corporate legislation, behold, traditionally, it is the starting point for calculating the taxable basis for corporate income tax purposes. For that, we will need to analyze the functions and users of accounting, identifying the current perspective and criteria that guide the preparation of financial reports. After this, we will be able to answer the following question: could the Brazilian legislature adopt the tax total dependency model, i.e., the corporate accounting as the taxable basis for corporate income tax without any correction or limitation on your determination process, as happens in some jurisdictions? In essence, this study intends to perform critical analysis of if the accounting profit, which was provided for Corporate and Tax Law purposes, confirm (or not) the taxable event provided by Federal Constitution.

Die aftrekking van herstelkoste ingevolge artikel 11 (d) van die Inkomstebelastingwet, no. 58 van 1962Brits, Mathys Michael 15 August 2012 (has links)
M.Comm. / Herstelwerk vorm 'n belangrike gedeelte van die koste-struktuur van ondernemers. Natuurlike verwering en agteruitgang het tot gevolg dat herstelwerk aan sekere bates gedoen word. Meeste persone het 'n persepsie wat herstelwerk verteenwoordig. Die persepsie van wat ondernemers beskou as herstelwerk is nie noodwendig in ooreenstemming met artikel 11(d) van die Wet nie asook toetste wat deur die howe neergele is nie. Ten einde 'n sinvolle uiteensetting te verskaf was dit nodig om die onderwerp in sinvolle komponente te verdeel. Die inleidende paragraaf tot artikel 11 is eers ontleed aangesien dit ook die inleidende paragraaf tot artikel 11(d) – wat handel oor herstelwerk -verteenwoordig. Vervolgens is artikel 11(d) van die Wet ontleed ten einde die studie in konteks te plaas. Die begrip van herstelkoste is daarna ontleed en 'n onderskeid is gemaak met faktore wat kan dui op 'n verbetering. Die invloed van koste op beslissings is ook ondersoek. Met betrekking tot die inleidende paragraaf van artikel 11 is gevind dat "belasbare inkomste" bereken word deur van "bruto inkomste" vrystellings (soos in artikel 10 van die Wet uiteengesit) of te trek en daarna die ander aftrekkings soos in die Wet uiteengesit. Een van hierdie aftrekkings is herstelwerk wat in artikel 11(d) van die Wet uiteengesit word en die onderwerp van hierdie studie is. Aangesien hierdie "belasbare inkomste" deur 'n "persoon" verdien moet word is hierdie begrip ontleed. Daar is gevind dat die begrip "persoon" 'n afdelingsraad, munisipale raad, dorpsbestuur of derglike gesag; 'n maatskappy (of beslote korporasie); enige liggaam van persone, 'n natuurlike persoon; 'n vereniging van persone; die boedel van 'n oorlede persoon; 'n insolvente boedel en 'n trust insluit. Voordat 'n aftrekking toegestaan kan word om "belasbare inkomste" te bereken moet 'n "persoon" 'n bedryf "beoefen". Daar is vasgestel dat beoefen `n daadwerklike optrede moet wees en dat die "persoon" homself daarop moet toele. In die studie is gevind dat die begrip "bedryf' baie wyd is en nie uitputtend is nie. Daar is wel 'n omskrywing in artikel 1 tot die Wet maar die vraag of 'n bedryf beoefen word moet op grond van die feite beslis word. Met betrekking tot artikel 11(d) is eerstens gevind dat "onkoste" en "uitgawes" dieselfde betekenis het. Daar is vervolgens bevind dat daar 'n onvoorwaardelike regsaanspreeklikheid in die jaar van aanslag moet wees voordat die onkoste as 'n aftrekking toegelaat sal word. Alhoewel daar nie hofsake is wat handel oor die betekenis van "eiendom" ingevolge die spesifieke bepalings van artikel 11(d) nie word die afleiding gemaak dat dit verwys na geboue. Dit is 'n vereiste dat die eiendom of vir bedryfsdoeleindes geokkupeer moet word Of die eiendom moet in staat wees om inkomste voor te bring.

A critical analysis of the concept of carrying on trade in the South African Income Tax ActTshikororo, Ndivhuwo Ronald 26 May 2014 (has links)
LL.M. (Tax Law) / This dissertation seeks to analyse the phrase “carrying on a trade” in the context of South African income tax law. South African income tax law places emphasis on the phrase “carrying on a trade”. The Income Tax Act 58 of 1962 (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”) makes reference to the phrase in several different contexts. Trading is relevant to the tax treatment of both income (the amount that falls in the gross income of the taxpayer) and expenditure (the amount that qualifies for deduction). The importance of “carrying on a trade” within the income tax law can be seen in light of the following provisions of the Act that form the crux of this dissertation: section 1 defines trade; section 7 provides for the treatment of income from the trade of spouses married in community of property; section 11 deals with deductions; section 20(1) deals with setting off of assessed losses; section 23(g) deals with deductions not permitted in terms of the Act; and section 24H deals with the treatment of income derived by a partner carrying on a trade in a partnership. It is important to note that though it is not explicitly mentioned in the Act, the revenue receipts or accruals arising out of trade are included in the taxpayer's gross income provided that the trade constitutes a scheme of profit-making. Section 11(a) of the Act contains what is often described as the general deduction

Examination of the Effects of Experience and Missing Information on Tax Preparer JudgmentLewis, Judy D. (Judy Dianne) 08 1900 (has links)
This research examines how experience and missing information affect judgments of tax return preparers. Tax return preparers may often be faced with the problem of incomplete information, and their responses to this problem may be conditioned by whether or not they recognize information is missing. Based on the Holland et al.'s cognitive theory of induction as applied to tax judgment by Marchant et al., it was hypothesized that experienced tax preparers would correctly classify more items as to their relevance to a specific tax issue than novice tax preparers. Additionally, it was hypothesized that the strength of recommendations of tax preparers who had no relevant information missing would be greater than the strength of recommendations of tax preparers who had relevant information missing and were prompted that information was missing. Lastly, it was hypothesized that prompting that relevant information was missing would have a greater effect on the strength of recommendations of tax return preparers with lesser specific experience than it would on the strength of recommendations of tax return preparers with greater specific experience. The results suggest that experienced tax preparers do recognize the relevance of information to a greater degree than novice tax preparers. There was no significant difference, however, in the strengths of recommendation of tax preparers who had no missing information and those who were prompted that information was missing. There was a significant difference in the strengths of recommendations of tax preparers with lesser specific experience who had been prompted that relevant information was missing and those who had not been prompted that relevant information was missing. Among tax preparers with greater specific experience, however, there was no significant difference between the two groups. These results suggest that tax preparers with greater specific experience recognized that relevant information was missing without being prompted, while tax return preparers with lesser specific experience did not.

State income tax a double-edged swordBurgos, Karla 01 December 2011 (has links)
States are facing tough economic times as a result of the housing market bubble exploding. States have been declaring budget deficits and major program cuts, since revenues have not kept up with expenditures and rainy day funds have been practically exhausted. State tax revenues have decreased, resulting from a decline in income tax revenues, one of the major sources of revenues for a large number of states (41 in total). A majority of these states have come to depend heavily on the revenue they collect from income taxes, which can represent as much as 40% of state tax revenue. This thesis focuses on the impact that income tax revenue has on state budgets and how it affects certain expenditures. To provide a more complete understanding on how fiscal policy affects the citizen directly, this thesis compares the changes in state's total tax revenue and spending on education and health programs between states that levy income tax and states that do not. Data from the United States Census Bureau and the National Association of State Budget Officials was analyzed by calculating the growth rate and relevant elasticities during 2006-2010, the years before, during, and after the last recession. Results will show a difference in changes in revenue and expenditure between the two types of states and a more sensitive elasticity for non-income tax states for both revenue and expenditure. With a better understanding of how the tax base behaves and how revenue affects programs, an improved tax policy that could produce more efficient services for citizens might be created.

Natureza jurídica da retenção na fonte do imposto sobre a renda / Legal nature of the withholding income taxFaria, Renato Vilela 10 April 2012 (has links)
No contexto do sistema tributário nacional, a tributação da renda obriga o legislador não apenas a obedecer aos princípios abrigados sob o manto da Constituição Federal, mas também ao atendimento dos valores impregnados na sociedade, de forma que seus trabalhos sejam orientados por meio da ponderação de prioridades. O princípio da praticabilidade é tomado neste estudo como a pedra de toque no debate sobre a validade da incidência do Imposto de Renda na Fonte. A praticabilidade, elevada ao grau de princípio, é confrontada com outros princípios constitucionais, em especial com a capacidade contributiva, a vedação ao confisco, o mínimo existencial e a segurança jurídica. Focado nos aspectos material, temporal e quantitativo da regra matriz do Imposto Sobre a Renda, o presente estudo procura identificar os regimes jurídicos aplicáveis a cada uma das situações onde este imposto incide, de forma antecipada e isolada, por meio do conceito da retenção na fonte, com a transferência da responsabilidade por seu pagamento para a fonte pagadora. O tema é examinado sob a ótica do Imposto de Renda na Fonte, sobretudo no tocante às pessoas físicas, onde surge um campo maior de questionamentos. A presente abordagem percorre, primeiro, o campo específico do Imposto sobre a Renda e, em um segundo momento, descortina o aspecto subjetivo deste imposto. Na primeira parte, amparados pela Constituição Federal e pela legislação infraconstitucional, busca-se a identificação do conceito de renda e dos principais aspectos de seu fato gerador, com ênfase na disponibilidade ou realização dessa renda e na aquisição de um acréscimo patrimonial. A relevância do aspecto temporal se dá no confronto com as regras de retenção do imposto na fonte, na medida em que determina que o pagamento do imposto seja realizado de forma antecipada e isolada dos demais rendimentos. Na segunda parte, o foco é direcionado para a responsabilidade tributária, com a discussão acerca da classificação dos possíveis sujeitos passivos indiretos, com ênfase nas figuras do substituto tributário e do agente de retenção e a relação com o contribuinte, ora excluindo sua responsabilidade ora a mantendo, de forma supletiva. Ao final, além de propor regras gerais aplicáveis a cada um dos dois regimes jurídicos próprios do Imposto de Renda na Fonte, são analisados casos práticos que revelam características daqueles dois regimes. / In the context of the Brazilian tax system, taxation of income demands the legislator not only to obey the principles sheltered under the mantle of the Federal Constitution, but also to meet the values imbued within the society, so that his activities shall be guided by means of consideration of priorities. The Principle of Praticability in this study is taken as the touchstone in the debate on the validity of the applicability of the withholding tax. Praticability, raised at a principle level, is considered before other constitutional principles, specially the ability to pay, the prohibition of confiscation, the minimum existence and legal certainty, Focusing on the material, temporal and quantitative aspects of the rulearray of the income tax, the present study aims to identify the legal regimes applicable to each of the situations where said tax is levied, in advance and isolated through the so called source concept, with the transfer of the tax liability to the source payer. The issue is examined before the perspective of the withholding tax, especially with regard to the individuals, where it seems to appear a larger field of challenges. This approach runs, firstly, the specific field of the income tax and, secondly, reveals the subjective aspect of such tax. In the first part, supported by the Federal Constitution and by the infraconstitutional law, seeks to identify the concept of income and the main aspects of its taxable event, with emphasis on the availability or realization of said income and the acquisition of an equity increase. The relevance of the temporal aspect operates when confronting with the rules of the withholding tax, as this determines that the payment must be realized in advance and isolated from other income. In the second part, the focus is driven to the tax liability, through the discussion on the classification of the possible indirect taxpayers, with emphasis to the figures of the Tax Substitution and the withholding agent and the relationship with the taxpayer, sometimes excluding his tax liability and sometime keeping his tax liability, in a supplementary manner. At the end, besides in proposing general rules applicable to each of the two legal regimes of the Withholding Tax, there is the examination of case studies which reveals characteristics from both regimes.
