A

Sales

P300,00 0 40% P120,00 0

Multiplied by OSD rate Optional standard deduction

The compensation income is not included in determining OSD. The OSD (40% of gross sales or gross receipts) is only allowed as deduction from income derived from business. If an individual opted to use OSD, he is no longer allowed to deduct cost of sales. [Sec. 34(L), NIRC; Sec. 3, Rev. Regs. No. 16-2008] Problem 8 – 14 B Gross receipts from profession Rent income (P475,000/95%) Total gross income Multiplied by percent of OSD Optional standard deduction Problem 8 – 15

P100,000 500,000 P600,000 40% P240,000

D

Since there are no official receipts and documents to support the operating expenses, the reported operating expenses are not deductible (Sec. 34(A)(b), NIRC). The OSD is not allowed for nonresident aliens (Sec. 34(L), NIRC). No personal exemption will be granted to a nonresident alien with business in the Philippines if his country does not have an exemption reciprocity law favoring a Filipino citizen. (Sec. 9, Rev. Regs. No. 2) Problem 8 – 16

Corporatio n P1,000,000 300,000 P 700,000 40% P 280,000

RA 9504 is specific as to the basis of OSD. For individuals, the basis of the 40% OSD shall be the “gross sales” or “gross receipts.” In the case of corporate taxpayers subject to tax under Sections 27(A) and 28(A)(1) of the Tax Code, as amended, the basis of the 40% OSD shall be the “gross income.”

No itemized deduction is allowed if no official receipts, records or other pertinent papers can be used to support it (CIR vs. Isabela Cultural Corporation, G.R. No. 172231, Feb. 12, 2007). In case of individual taxpayer, the “cost of sales” or the “cost of services” are not allowed to be deducted for purposes of determining the basis of OSD inasmuch as the law (RA 9504) is specific as to the basis thereof which states that for individuals, the basis of the 40% shall be the “gross sales” or “gross receipts” and not the “gross income.” (Sec. 3, Rev. Regs. No. 16-2008) Problem 8 – 20 Gross salaries of employees

At the start of the used of the building, the remaining period for the contract of lease is 9.5 years.
