TAXATION― ITS ROLE IN BUSINESS DECISION MAKING j j j j j j




Review Questions
j




1. If income tax is imposed after profits have been determined, why is taxation relevant to
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


business decision making?
j j j




2. Most business decisions involve the evaluation of alternative courses of action. For
j j j j j j j j j j j


example, a marketing manager may be responsible for choosing a strategy for establishing
j j j j j j j j j j j j j


sales in new geographical territories. Briefly explain how the tax factor can bean integral part of
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


this decision.

3. What are the fundamental variables of the income tax system that decision-makers shouldbe
j j j j j j j j j j j j j


familiar with so that they can apply tax issues to their areas of responsibility?
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




4. What is an ―after-tax‖ approach to decision making?

Solutions to Review Questions j j j




R1-1 Once profit is determined, the Income Tax Act determines the amount of income tax that
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


results. However, at all levels of management, alternative courses of action are evaluated.In
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


many cases, the choice of one alternative over the other may affect both the amount and the
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


timing of future taxes on income generated from that activity. Therefore, the person making
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


those decisions has a direct input into future after-tax cash flow. Obviously, decisions that
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


reduce or postpone the payment of tax affect the ultimate return on investment and, in turn,
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


the value of the enterprise. Including the tax variable as a part of the formal decision process
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


will ultimately lead to improved after-tax cash flow.
j j j j j j j j




R1-2 Expansion can be achieved in new geographic areas through direct selling, or by establishing
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


a formal presence in the new territory with a branch office or a separate corporation. The new
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


territories may also cross provincial or international boundaries. Provincial income tax rates
j j j j j j j j j j j j


vary amongst the provinces. The amount of income that is subject to tax in the new province
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


will be different for each of the three alternatives mentioned above. For example, with direct
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


selling, none of the income is taxed in the newprovince, but with a separate corporation, all of
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


the income is taxed in the new province. Because the tax cost is different in each case, taxation
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


is a relevant part of the decision and must be included in any cost-benefit analysis that
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


compares the three alternatives [Reg. 400-402.1].
j j j j j j




R1-3 A basic understanding of the following variables will significantly strengthen a decision
j j j j j j j j j j j j


maker's ability to apply tax issues to their area of responsibility.
j j j j j j j j j j j




Types of Income j j - Employment, Business, Property, Capital j j j




j gainsTaxable Entities j j - Individuals, Corporations, Trusts j j




Alternative Business j - Corporation, Proprietorship, Partnership, j j


LimitedStructures j j partnership, Joint arrangement, Income trust j j j j




Tax Jurisdictions j - Federal, Provincial, Foreign j j




R1-4 All cash flow decisions, whether related to revenues, expenses, asset acquisitions or
j j j j j j j j j j j j


divestitures, or debt and equity restructuring, will impact the amount and timing of the tax
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


cost. Therefore, cash flow exists only on an after tax basis, and, the tax impacts whether ornot
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


the ultimate result of the decision is successful. An after-tax approach to decision-making
j j j j j j j j j j j j j


requires each decision-maker to think "after-tax" for every decision at thetime the decision is
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


being made, and, to consider alternative courses of action to minimize the tax cost, in the
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


same way that decisions are made regarding other types of costs.
j j j j j j j j j j j




Failure to apply an after-tax approach at the time that decisions are made may
j j j j j j j j j j j j j


provideinaccurate information for evaluation, and, result in a permanently inefficient tax
j j j j j j j j j j j j


structure.

j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j


undertaken primarily for bona fide business, investment, or family purposes, the general
j j j j j j j j j j j j


anti- avoidance rule will apply and eliminate the tax benefit.‖ Is this statement true? Explain.
