Case

Support for data Input related to the Group Tax Relief System.

The Group Tax Relief System requires companies to calculate taxable income by consolidating the profits and losses of the entire group. These companies are expected to perform similar tasks as the parent company, including tax-effect accounting. Compared to other companies that are not under group governance, the procedures are more complex, especially the calculation for processes related to profit and loss consolidation and carryforward deduction of net operating losses. This imposes a significant burden on the tax departments.

Furthermore, many wholly-owned subsidiaries lack tax officers, making it even more challenging for such companies to comply with the system. Most companies using tax-effect accounting and the group tax consolidation system adopt systems provided by TKC Corporation. However, inputting data into these systems is highly complicated, requiring not only an understanding of the rules but also familiarity with the system’s specific characteristics.

To alleviate the stress, we offer support related to the group tax relief system for fully controlled subsidiaries.

▼Specific Support

Support for data Input related to the Group Tax Relief System

As part of the support project related to the Group Tax Relief System, we received a request for input support. This involves entering data from tax calculation worksheets created in Excel and tax-related general ledgers into TKC Corporation’s Tax Effect Accounting System (eTaxEffect) and the Group Tax Return Filing System (e-TAX Group Relief).

The tax-related journal entries include the following four events:

  • Accrued unpaid amounts at the April fiscal year-end
  • Payments made in May based on expected tax payments
  • Finalized tax payments at the time of the July tax return submission
  • Interim tax payments in November

How to represent these events in Schedule 5(1) and Schedule 5(2) of the e-TAX Group Relief System was a particularly challenging task.

▼Support process

Completion of organizing journal entries related to taxes, group tax relief system, and the creation of digital data

We first started with organizing journal entries related to taxes. Unpaid corporate taxes at the end of the previous fiscal year were recorded separately (corporate tax, prefectural tax, municipal tax, and business tax) we carefully reviewed the changes in these items.

Next, we compared the results entered into the tax-effect accounting system to finalize the unpaid tax amounts, then entered the data into the group tax consolidation filing system to complete the creation of the tax return.

When converting the financial statements into CSV format as required by the National Tax Agency, several tasks were necessary:

  • Organizing multiple accounts
  • Entering sub-numbers for special account displays
  • Deleting headers

By utilizing vendor-provided software for format conversion, we were able to smoothly create digital data.
