Corporate Income Tax is applied to profits earned by business entities or companies. Even though they are both PPh, the corporate income tax rates are different from the individual income tax rates. Unfortunately, there are still many business owners who do not fully understand this type of tax. For this reason, for you as a business person, pay attention to the information discussed in the following review.

 

What is meant by corporate income tax?

In general, Corporate Income Tax is a type of tax imposed on business actors, organizations and companies. Thus, this tax is imposed on various business entities such as CVs, Firms, BUMN, BUMD, PT, Pension Funds, BUT, Foundations, Associations, mass organizations and cooperatives.

 

The object of tax collected is the taxpayer's income earned during 1 year. It could be said that corporate income tax is the tax burden from the profits or income of a business entity in a year. The profits or income in question include business profits, sharia income, royalties, dividends, foreign exchange differences, awards or prizes, rent, interest, Bank Indonesia profits, profits from the sale or transfer of assets, utilization of assets other than buildings, land and transfer of services.
