Royal Decree 1643/1990 of 20 December, approving the General Plan of Accounting, establishes in its final disposal the fifth that the Accounting and Audit Institute of Accounts, by Resolution, may dictate (a) rules of mandatory compliance with the development of the General Accounting Plan in relation to valuation standards.

The need to develop the number sixteen valuation standard, relating to the accounting record of Corporate Tax expenditure, led the Accounting and Audit Institute of Accounts to draw up the Resolution of 30 June. April 1992, on some aspects of this valuation standard.

This Resolution is in response to the need arising from the entry into force on 1 January 1996 of Law 43/1995 of 27 December of the Corporate Tax, to update the Resolution of 30 April 1992, The above mentioned Resolution, logically adapted to the legal regulation of the tax in force until that date. In addition, the formulation of consultations with this Institute has shown the desirability of dealing specifically with a general resolution of certain aspects relating to this standard of assessment.

In the light of the possibility of dealing with this resolution only aspects which have been adapted to the new tax legislation or, on the other hand, clarified, it has been considered appropriate to recast in a single text the of the Resolution of 30 April 1992, which remain in force with the changes made in this Resolution, in order to bring together in a resolution the development of the sixteenth valuation rule and therefore simplify its knowledge and analysis.

In the first rule the application of the principle of prudence is regulated in relation to deferred taxes, anticipated and credits for compensation of negative tax bases in the Tax on Societies, which arise as consequence of the accounting registration scheme set out in the General Accounting Plan.

In accordance with the accrual principle, each financial year must be placed on the basis of the corporate tax expense corresponding to the accounting result before taxes and not on the amount of the liquid quota corresponds to the Public Finance for that financial year. In other words, the corporate tax payable for accounting purposes does not necessarily coincide with the corporation tax payable, since it will be determined taking into account, among other tax criteria, the temporary imputation of income and expenditure, which sometimes differ from the accounting officers.

In order to be able to reconcile the above two parameters, the sixteenth valuation rule of the General Accounting Plan states that in the event of differences between the tax base of the tax on Companies and the accounting result before tax, will be carried out in their analysis to determine whether or not these differences will revert in the future, which will cause, where appropriate, the existence of temporary or permanent differences, respectively.

One of the differences between the corporate tax expense and the tax payable will be equal to the result of applying the tax rate to the temporary differences, without prejudice to the positive and negative adjustments that may be made. produced in the exercise itself and in the future.

When there are temporary differences between the accounting result before tax and the tax base of the Company Tax, the amount to be paid for the said tax in an exercise, including deductions and payments on account, will be lower or higher than the expenditure incurred by that tax; the difference between the two measures, if it has a certain interest in relation to the future tax burden, will in the first case result in a deferred tax, whereas if the tax payable In the case of an overpayment, an advance tax shall be recorded.

According to the aforementioned standard of the General Accounting Plan, in the register of the advance taxes and the credits derived from the compensation of negative tax bases, the principle of The value of the value of the goods in question is calculated in accordance with Article 38 of the Trade Code and in the first part of the General Accounting Plan, and therefore only those anticipated taxes whose future performance is reasonably assured shall be taken into account.

Taking into account that tax legislation is in the process of change and adaptation almost constant and that in some cases it is impossible for the dam to predict in a reasonable way the evolution of its economic situation to In the long term, it will not be possible to understand that the future performance of the pre-tax and the credits derived from negative tax bases is reasonably assured when it is expected that its reversal or cancellation will be made in a period of excessively long time. In these cases, it is not appropriate to account for the high level of advance taxes and credits for compensation of negative tax bases, thus avoiding that in the balance sheet items of doubtful effectiveness are collected.

Therefore, on the basis of the principle of prudence, the resolution states that when the time limit for the future implementation of the anticipated tax is expected to occur after a very long period of time, it will be considered as that their reversal is not reasonably assured, so the advance tax will not be recorded. To this end, a maximum period of reversal of 10 years shall be fixed for the purpose of recording that item.

The criteria laid down for the registration of the advance taxes will also apply for the credits derived from negative taxable bases pending compensation, although in this case the expected deadline of Recovery must also be at the maximum the level laid down in the tax legislation, which is generally seven years. For the purposes of assessing the possibility of offsetting the negative tax bases, it will also be necessary for them to have been produced by a sporadic event in the business of the company and which its cause has already been referred to, as in another case there is no certainty that these negative tax bases can be compensated for in the future.

Additionally, an issue that has been highlighted lately is the possibility that both assets and liabilities arising from the accounting of corporate tax expense and which revert or are offset in the long term, they may be subject to financial update. This has required that, prior to the final wording of this standard, a detailed study of the subject has been necessary.

First, and to focus this aspect, it should be noted that the 12th valuation standard contained in the fifth part of the General Accounting Plan states that debtors and traffic creditors:

" They will be in the balance sheet at face value. Interest on the nominal amount of the loans and debits for transactions with a maturity of more than one year shall be recorded in the balance sheet as income to be distributed in various financial years '' or to be distributed in various financial years '', respectively, annually imputed to results according to a financial criterion. '

On the other hand, for non-commercial credits, the standard of valuation novena provides that "they will be recorded for the amount delivered", while the 11th standard for non-commercial debts, according to the With the provisions of article 197 of the recast of the Law of Companies, approved by Royal Decree 1564/1989 of 22 December 1989, it indicates that " they will appear in the balance sheet for their value for reimbursement. The difference between that value and the amount received shall be shown separately in the balance sheet asset. '

For traffic operations, it is necessary to indicate that they are listed in Group 4, "Creditors and Debtors for Traffic Operations", included in the second part of the General Accounting Plan, the content of which is:

" Personal accounts and active and passive commercial effects that have their origin in the company's traffic, as well as the accounts with the Public Administrations, including those that correspond to balances with a maturity of more than one year ".

This allows us to reach a first conclusion, in the sense that although the Plan distinguishes traffic operations and balances with the Public Administrations, where the various assets and liabilities will be found The accounts to be used are included in the same group, so they could be participants of the same value criterion as set out above, so that the update of the set for any operation included in this group of accounts. The specialty in relation to the financial update for the traffic operations, is that the Plan only compels it when the maturity date is higher than the year.

Once the above mentioned, it should be specified that the financial update of credits and debits established in the General Accounting Plan, is based on the fact that an economic transaction has been carried out. Monetary current occurs at a time other than the accrual of the transaction, so that there is a temporary distance between the actual and the monetary event; it is therefore evidenced that the transaction includes two components from one point economic-rational view:

The actual amount of the transaction.

The financial component (implied interest) derived from deferral in payment or collection.

In relation to the accounting treatment of the items arising from the tax effect, in particular the financial update of the same, the nature of each of them must be analysed; that is to say, deferred tax and credit for compensation of negative tax bases, resulting in the following:

(a) When there is a deferred tax, the payment of an already established corporate tax expense is generally different from the accounting point of view. In this type of operations, the Public Finance Ministry grants a deferral in the payment of the debt at no financial cost; that is, the tax benefit is identified by the deferral of a debt with a zero financial cost, a very similar operation from a economic point of view of a subsidy of interest rates.

The accounting record of subsidised financial transactions, in accordance with the criteria set out in the Plan, requires the debt to be included in the liability of the company's balance sheet for its redemption value; Balance sheet assets shall be included in a heading of 'expenditure to be distributed in various financial years', the amount of which shall be determined by the difference between the redemption value and the current value of the debt calculated with a market interest rate for similar debts; this item shall be recorded on the basis of a liability item on the balance sheet "income to be distributed in various exercises". Both items shall be imputed to the results of the period over the lifetime of the debt, using a financial criterion, in order to match the amount (corresponding to those items) charged to the profit and loss account of the each financial year, not having as its effect on the outcome of the financial year in which the payment is deferred or on the outcome of future financial years. In addition, the revenue from the investment in which the amount corresponding to the liability "deferred tax" is materialised shall be produced, which shall be recorded in accordance with its nature.

b) On the other hand, when a corresponding amount is anticipated, in general, to what will be a future accrual for Corporate Tax expense, the contrary case is given; the company bears the cost of the anticipation, that is, the financial cost associated with it. The same is true when there are credits for negative tax bases.

The accounting record of the above, would require to compute the loss for the "gratuitousness" of the interest corresponding to the advance that is made to the Public Finance, circumstance that motivates a loss to record in the exercise in which the advance is produced.

Above all the previous update process, there are indeterminations about the interest rate to be applied and the time limit for the reversal or compensation of the indicated items. This, which cannot affect the consideration of the updating of other financial assets and liabilities, has promoted a deep debate in the accounting doctrine both in our country and internationally, when what is updated are items arising from the tax effect. In this sense it is necessary to refer to the International Accounting Standard (IAS) number 12, revised in 1996, where it is indicated in paragraph 53 and below that the assets and liabilities arising from the registration of the tax expense on Companies should not be subject to financial update.

The above has generated two doctrinal positions in this regard. A position is that the financial update of the items arising from the tax effect will not be carried out, without prejudice to the fact that for the assets (pre-tax and loss credits to be offset), if the reversal takes place in the long The application of the principle of prudence requires this circumstance to be taken into account.

Another position is to consider that all items arising from the tax effect should be updated financially on the basis of the above.

This Resolution, taking into account everything indicated and once seen the pros and cons that both positions produce, is decanted by the first of them, for reasons of simplification in the accounting record of the Tax on Companies, in such a way that the criterion established in general, is the non-financial update, quantifying the items derived from the tax effect by applying the tax rate of the exercise to the temporary differences or, where appropriate, negative taxable bases, unless the rate of charge in the case is known Reversal or compensation exercise is different, in which case the latter will be used. Notwithstanding the financial non-update, the application of the principle of prudence for the accounting record of the assets which have been indicated, pre-tax and credit for negative taxable bases, requires all the circumstances affecting the same.

Another aspect that this standard also deals with is the quantification of deferred taxes, pretax and credit for negative tax bases, in those companies that are fiscally qualified as small the size referred to in the Chapter XII of Law 43/1995, that is, those that present in the previous tax period a net amount of the turnover of less than 250,000,000 pesetas, considering the regulation introduced by the Article 19 of Law 13/1996, of 30 December, of Fiscal, Administrative and Order Measures Social, in relation to the type of tax to be applied to these companies. Taking into account that the rate of charge applied to the first 15,000,000 of the taxable amount is 30 per 100, the rule provides that those items are to be recorded at the rate indicated, without prejudice to the fact that the average rate in the exercise of reversion beyond that, the corresponding provision for risks and expenses shall be provided, where appropriate.

The second and third standards develop the possibility contained in the General Accounting Plan to make permanent differences and the deductions of the quota, when they give rise to a minorizing of the expenditure. accrued by Company Tax and according to reasonable criteria. It is established in this respect that only deductions from the tax on corporate tax-applied companies may be subject to a reclassification.

On this point, it is important to highlight the different tax treatment that, in relation to the previous legislation, grants Law 43/1995 to the reinvestment of extraordinary profits. This Law provides that the income obtained from the onerous transfer of certain assets, once corrected for monetary depreciation, will not be integrated into the taxable base of the year of the transfer but in the taxable amount of years. subsequent, provided that the amount of such transmissions is reinvested in a given period.

In the previous legislation these reinvestment transactions led to the exemption of these rents, causing, where appropriate, a permanent difference which would reduce the expenditure incurred by the Corporate Tax and which could be the purpose of the annual accounts in the annual accounts as provided for in the second rule of the Resolution. This aspect will still be applicable for the small-scale enterprises referred to in Chapter XII of Law 43/1995, for which the exemption from income (once corrected in the amount of monetary depreciation) is maintained. in the case of the transfer of items of the fixed assets to economic holdings, provided that these incomes are less than 50,000,000 pesetas and the amount of the transfer has been reinvested.

The tax treatment in force from the entry into force of Law 43/1995 for the rest of the reinvestment operations, originates, if any, in the year of the transmission a difference between the accounting result before taxes and the tax base, which will be reversed in successive financial years. It will therefore be a temporary difference which will result in the accounting of a deferred tax for the difference resulting from this reason between the corporate tax expense and the tax payable, and which will be cancelled as, in successive exercises, the reversal of the deferred tax would lead to a tax payable in excess of the accrual accounting expense.

The fourth standard of the Resolution deals with the accounting record of the tax on entities that are subject to the tax transparency regime in accordance with the rules of the resolution, collecting both the accounting criteria (a) to be applied on a general basis, as well as to the accounting development relating to the specificities of the economic interest groups and the Temporary Unions of Enterprises.

In the previous legislation, companies subject to the tax transparency regime were exempted from the Corporate Tax on the tax base part of the resident partners, while in the regulation Article 75 of Law 43/1995 states that they are taxed by this Tax and enter the quotas resulting from the liquidation of the same, which will subsequently impute its resident partners along with the positive tax bases, deductions, bonuses, split payments, withholding, income on account and fees that in turn have been imputed to such companies. In addition, the regulation provides for a special tax transparency regime for economic, Spanish and European interest groups, and for Temporary Business Unions.

In this rule, it is established that transparent entities must perform the accounting record in accordance with the general rules contained in the General Accounting Plan and in this Resolution. However, the tax system in force provides that these companies, in the part attributable to the partners to which the tax base is charged, cannot directly recover the excess withholding, income on account, payments made in instalments and (a) the amount to be paid by companies subject to the tax transparency scheme, on the amount resulting from the reduction of the full quota in deductions and allowances; these amounts are classified as a tax-related expenditure; be entered in the profit and loss account under the heading 'Other taxes', for this purpose to ensure that the corporate tax item represents what is strictly imposed on profits, and to preserve it from any other tax concept that does not participate in this nature. The accounting criteria applicable to entities (economic interest groups and Temporary Business Unions) which are taxed in the tax transparency regime have also been included in this rule, although they have certain particularities, such as: is the non-taxation of the Company Tax of certain entities (European economic interest groups) or the non-taxation of this tax on the basis of the taxable amount corresponding to the members or members resident in the territory Spanish (Spanish economic interest groups and Temporary Business Unions).

Particularly, and in order to clarify, it is necessary to refer to the Temporary Unions of Companies (UTE). The accounting criterion maintained in the adjustments to the General Accounting Plan for construction and real estate companies, approved by the Ministry of Economy and Finance dated 27 January 1993 and 28 December 1994, respectively, (in particular in the rules for drawing up the annual accounts 5.a), 6.a j) and 7.a (e), and in the valuation standard 21.a, of the two adaptation rules), provides that the share of the share of the proportional share in their annual accounts of the balances of the UTE that correspond to you, having these rules general scope for any type of economic activity. From the above it follows the criterion maintained by this Institute and expressed through consultation, that the daily book of the participant will include the operations carried out by the UTE (the recording of the operations will be carried out in the daily book). on a daily basis, or by means of a joint record of periods not exceeding the month, in accordance with Article 28.2 of the Trade Code) in the proportion to which it corresponds, so that the annual accounts of the participating Member contain the assets, liabilities, income and expenses that correspond to the UTE. As a result, the UTE does not make annual accounts for commercial purposes, without prejudice to the fact that other legislation, such as tax legislation, may impose certain accounting obligations on them; however, a adequate internal control will lead to the use of the relevant records in the form of records, which may be made in a manner similar to the bookkeeping books which are compulsory for undertakings.

This Resolution, taking into account the above, does not regulate the way in which the tax effect is recorded in the UTE, since, since it is not required to make annual accounts, it should refer to the 'auxiliaries' to which it has been mentioned, and in which it would produce a register similar to that set out in this Resolution for economic interest groups.

The fifth standard collects the accounting of tax expense derived from the tax transparency regime that must be made by the residents or members of the transparent entities.

The resident partners of the transparent companies shall account for the tax expense derived from the imputation of taxable bases, in accordance with their nature, in the exercise that is fiscally imputable; the amount of the The tax base charged, in general, could be treated as a temporary difference. However, this treatment leads to a number of difficulties which, although they have specific solutions, may lead to an excessive complication in the accounting record to be carried out by partners.

This accounting record requires, first of all, the exact quantification of the time difference, which in turn requires information on the permanent differences that may exist in the determination of the base. (a) taxable persons in a transparent company, since the existence of permanent differences in the transparent company determines that these differences must also be considered by the partner-partner, thereby altering the amount of the the time difference that occurs in the partners as a result of the base imputation taxable. Secondly, it will be necessary to verify compliance with the requirements necessary for temporary differences to result in the accounting of advance taxes, taking into account the uncertainty that may occur in many cases over the reversal of such temporary differences.

For the purposes of quantifying the time difference, the following situations may occur:

That the net balance of the permanent differences increases the positive accounting result of the transparent society and that, therefore, the expense of the Company Tax on the partner in the amount corresponding to the " This would require the partner to treat only that part of the tax base which does not correspond to the permanent differences as a temporary difference.

That the net balance of the permanent differences eliminates the negative accounting result of the transparent society, producing a positive tax base, which will increase the corporate tax expense of the partner in the amount corresponding to the taxable amount charged. In this case, the partner could not consider that there is a temporary difference.

That the net balance of the permanent differences decreases the positive accounting result of the transparent society, minoring the partner's Company Tax expense in the amount corresponding to them; in this case the time difference to be considered by the partner shall be that which corresponds to the said accounting result, without being reduced by the permanent differences to be considered. A different situation is whether these permanent differences result in a negative tax base, in which case only the amount of the net balance of the same could be taken into account to match the tax base.

The reversal of the temporary differences thus quantified will occur in general when dividends are distributed by the transparent company, or when the shares in the capital of the company are sold.

When the necessary requirements are not met, it is generally stated in this Resolution, that the temporary differences will result in the accounting of the anticipated taxes, they will not be able to register (i) the introduction of a new system of taxation in the field of public services, which is a matter for the Member States.

For all of the above, this Resolution specifies rules that allow to avoid the difficulties described above, by configuring the imputation of the tax base as a temporary difference only in certain cases. It has been decided, in short, for a simpler treatment and in line with the business reality, establishing that the partners of transparent companies must include in the scheme of calculation of the Corporate Tax the tax base imputed by the transparent company as a permanent difference in the exercise that is fiscally attributable, and in the event that there is evidence that part of it is to be distributed as a dividend, or the participation in the capital in the short term, the corresponding advance tax will be recorded, all without prejudice to the fact that the companies which consider it are able to carry out their accounting records in accordance with the above, with strict application of the principles of prudence and uniformity. In any case, the criteria used must be indicated in the memory.

For the accounting record of holds, fractional payments, income to account and satisfied shares that transparent companies impute to their partners, this Resolution provides that their amount will decrease the tax due as expenditure by the partner in the year in which they are charged. The tax deductions and benefits charged to the partners must be treated in the same way as the one provided for in general in the General Accounting Plan and in this Resolution for deductions and bonuses.

In this rule, the characteristics of the taxation of economic interest groups and of the Temporary Unions of Companies have also been collected from the perspective of the partners and participants, respectively, of the entities. Finally, the issue of international tax transparency is also covered.

It also addresses this Resolution in its sixth norm the issue of the regime of the groups of societies, establishing the way of determining for the societies that form the tax group the expense for the Tax on Societies that must record each of them. It is known that a consolidation is to be carried out for the determination of the consolidated tax base of the said tax. The elimination of "intra-group" results practiced in this process will produce, within the scheme of calculation of the tax expense on accrued societies, either temporary differences, or permanent differences (as is the case for certain dividends distributed among group companies), which will have to be taken into account in order to determine the correct registration of the tax in the companies belonging to the tax group.

This Resolution is pronounced by accounting in the annual accounts of each company, of which the tax group makes up, the tax due in accordance with the tax characteristics imposed by the said regime. Therefore, each company member of the group will quantify the tax that would have been imposed under the individual declaration corrected according to the company group scheme.

Regarding the deductions and bonuses applied in the liquidation of the tax, the resolution establishes that the same will be computed in any case by the society that, according to the rules of the tax, obtain the returns or perform the necessary activity so that the deduction or bonus can be practiced. Other options have thus been discarded, among which it is possible to mention in accounts the increase in deductions from the group of companies, the company that provides the conditions for increasing the limits of the necessary to exercise the right to deduct.

This rule has practically maintained the wording contained in the Resolution of 30 April 1992, although the consideration has been removed that the tax rules may lead to a different distribution of the tax burden than that which results from the accounting rules. In this respect, it is noted that the Tax Administration has considered that by not establishing Law 43/1995 any specific regulation, on the way to determine the credits and debits that arise between the societies of the group by the application of the tax effect, the accounting criteria for this matter shall apply in accordance with the provisions of Article 10 (3) of that Law.

The seventh standard deals with the case of taxes on profits earned abroad by those companies whose activity is developed outside the national territory. To this end, it provides, in order to obtain adequate information, that these amounts appear in the profit and loss account under 'Other taxes'.

The eighth standard provides for the aspect relating to regulatory changes that affect the tax rate, known before the annual accounts are drawn up, by establishing that, if this is the case, the tax rate is to be adjusted. amounts of the advance and deferred taxes, as well as the claims for negative tax bases, at the time they are notified.

An issue that has raised doubts, and about which this Institute has already been expressed, is the one concerning the record of the minutes that, on the Tax on Societies, the Tax Administration can initiate with the procedures for the verification and investigation of taxes, in accordance with the ninth standard, the registration of contingencies arising from this tax, taking into account the nature of each of its components.

Finally, given the changes introduced in Law 43/1995, in the tax transparency regime, it has been necessary to deal with the 10th standard, the accounting solution of certain aspects.

Both the adaptation to the new regulation of the tax transparency regime, as well as the possible change of a transparent society to the general taxation regime, will entail the registration of the corresponding taxes anticipated, deferred and credits for compensation of negative taxable bases. It has also been collected, in relation to the quantification of the credits and debits derived from the tax effect, the peculiarity laid down in the transitional provision twenty-second of Law 43/1995 on the rates applicable to the transparent companies during the transitional period included in the transitional period.

According to the foregoing, taking into account the current tax regimes, for reasons of opportunity, and pursuant to the final disposal of Royal Decree 1643/1990 of 20 December 1990, for which the approves the General Accounting Plan, as well as Article 2 of Law 19/1988, of July 12, of Audit of Accounts, this Institute of Accounts and Audit of Accounts gives the following Resolution:

First. -Application of the principle of prudence.

1. The advance and deferred taxes, and the tax credits arising from the application of the sixteenth valuation standard of the fifth part of the General Accounting Plan, shall be accounted for in accordance with that rule and with the content of the Resolution.

2. For application of the principle of prudence, deferred taxes shall be the subject of accounting in any event. The amount shall be determined by the application of the tax rate of the financial year on the difference, for each transaction, between the tax base and the pre-tax accounting result which reverts to future periods.

3. The claims for compensation of negative taxable bases and the advance taxes shall be counted only to the extent that they have a certain interest in the future tax burden, taking into account that the annual accounts they must show the true image of the assets, the financial situation and the results of the company. Therefore, if there are doubts about their future recovery, by application of the principle of prudence, they should not be recorded in the annual accounts as such, and in no case should they be recorded in the asset and correct their valuation by the provision of provisions.

In view of the above, the amount corresponding to the said assets will be determined, in general, by the application of the tax rate of the financial year on the difference, for each transaction, between the tax base and the pre-tax accounting result that reverses in future periods if this is an advance tax, or the amount of the negative tax base if it is a credit for negative taxable base compensation.

4. The claims resulting from the compensation of negative taxable bases shall be the subject of an accounting record only where the negative tax base has been produced as a result of an unusual occurrence in the management of the undertaking, provided that It is reasonable to consider that the causes that originated have disappeared at present and that tax benefits are to be obtained that will allow their compensation in a period not exceeding that provided for in the tax legislation for the compensation of the negative tax bases, i.e. seven years on a general basis, and with a maximum limit of 10 years, from the date of the end of the financial year in cases where the tax law allows the compensation to be offset in higher instalments.

5. In the event that the credit for negative taxable bases had been generated in a previous year, it would not have been the subject of an accounting record as an asset because the negative tax base was produced as a result of a (a) to be used for the purposes of the management of the undertaking, or because it cannot be considered that the causes which originated it, without prejudice to the necessary information in the memory, may only be the subject of an accounting record in the year in which it is produced; the effective compensation of the negative tax bases, unless there is a prior exercise clear evidence that the company is on a profit path that would ensure the compensation of the negative tax base.

If a credit for negative taxable bases was not the subject of an accounting record as an asset as a result of its future recovery in excess of ten years, and provided that the tax legislation (a) allow for the compensation to be paid, shall be the subject of an accounting record in the first financial year in which the future recovery period does not exceed 10 years from the date of the end of the financial year.

The flowering of the tax credit, in a subsequent year to which it originated, will result in a reduction of the corporate tax expense in the profit and loss account, for which the account 638. "Positive adjustments in the tax on benefits" provided for in Part Two of the General Accounting Plan.

If the adjustment to which the reference has been made is significant, it shall be reflected in the profit and loss account by breaking down the corporate tax expense, so that the expenditure incurred is reflected separately. in the exercise and the one derived from negative taxable bases of previous years.

6. An accounting record shall be the subject of advance taxes only if a reasonable estimate of the company's evolution indicates that the latter may be subject to future recovery.

It will be assumed that the future realization of the anticipated taxes is not sufficiently assured, among others, in the following cases:

When it is expected that its future reversal will occur within a period of more than ten years, counted from the date of the close of the financial year.

In the case of companies that are typically generating losses, therefore the reversal of the advance tax cannot be reasonably foreseen.

7. By way of derogation from the preceding number of this rule, any advance tax which exceeds the stated time limit may be entered in the accounts where the following two circumstances are met:

That the amount of deferred taxes is equal to or greater than the anticipated taxes.

The deferred tax reversal deadline is equal to that of the anticipated taxes.

8. If an advance tax was not the subject of an accounting record as an asset as a result of the company's loss of business usually, without prejudice to the necessary information in the memory, it may only be the subject of an accounting record in the the exercise of the effective reversal of the advance tax, unless there is clear evidence in a previous financial year that the company is on a profit path that would ensure the reversal of the advance tax.

If an advance tax was not the subject of an accounting record as an asset as a result of its future reversal within a period of more than ten years and the circumstances set out in paragraph 7 above were not met. this rule shall be the subject of an accounting record in the first financial year in which the time limit for future reversal does not exceed 10 years from the date of the end of the financial year, or the situation referred to in paragraph 7 of this rule occurs.

When circumstances are necessary to record an advance tax produced in a previous financial year, and which was not the subject of an accounting record in accordance with the criteria set out in the General Accounting Plan and in this Resolution, the advance tax will result in a reduction in the share of corporate tax expense in the profit and loss account, for which account 638 may be used. "Positive adjustments in the tax on benefits" provided for in Part Two of the General Accounting Plan.

If the adjustment to which the reference has been made is significant, it shall be reflected in the profit and loss account by breaking down the corporate tax expense, so that the expenditure incurred is reflected separately. in the financial year and the one derived from advance taxes from previous years.

9. The quantification of credits and debits arising from the tax effect on small-scale entities, which under the tax legislation should be taxed at a rate of charge for the first tranche of the tax base and other types of tax The tax rate for the remainder of the tax base shall be applied by applying the rate corresponding to the first tranche and taking into account the provisions of the preceding numbers of this standard.

However, if the estimate of the overall situation of the tax effect of the company resulted in a possible higher debt for corporate tax, for which the average rate of charge will be taken into account, it shall provide a provision for risks and expenses for that estimated amount, under a corporate tax expense item, for which account 633 may be used. 'Negative adjustments to the taxation on profits' contained in the second part of the General Accounting Plan.

This provision shall be included in item C. 2 "Provisions for taxes" of the liability of the balance sheet, or in an item in the group F "Provisions for short-term risks and expenses", which shall be created for the purpose of the balance sheet liability if the maturity of this provision is lower than the year. Account 141 may be used for this purpose. "Provision for taxes" provided for in the second part of the General Accounting Plan.
