CORPORATION TAX- An overview of the issue

 

Corporation tax, as we all know, is a direct tax levied on an organization’s net income or profit. Now, if we speak on a global level, it can be said that every firm in the world has its own opinion when it comes to tax relate activities. Same is the case with Corporation tax. If we talk about arguments that support all the activities that are focused on cutting down on Corporate Tax, we can see many including the famous one, “If tax avoidance is legal, what’s the problem?"

​

Many recent reports state the importance of reducing Corporate Tax basing their argument on the premise that if a particular organization s run by an individual or a group of owners who themselves are among the tax-paying audience, then why is it a compulsion for their firm to carry another burden of a separate taxation activity?

​

The basic definition of Corporate Tax may present the idea behind it as a peculiar need imposed by the government, but if we observe and take a closer look it, we can find the essence of its role in all these arguments itself.

 

​

OPPOSING ARGUMENTS

​

As an accounting firm, we often come across organizations and/or individuals who have a stern perspective when it comes to abstain from paying Corporate Tax. Speaking on that note, according to some earlier reports written on the importance of Corporate Tax, it can be mentioned that every argument is based on the fact that Corporate Tax should not be entitled to sustain under the concept of a benefit principle tax. This can be seen as a logical approach given that all the scholars who come up with such arguments base their fact on the same thought that any organization that is paying Corporate Tax as an addition to the taxable amount its already paying to the government, is simply carrying a double burden due to which, its income is being slashed off.
