政府与非营利组织会计,由于中国很少学到相关知识,即使学到了也和美国的相关准则差异很大,所以这一部分对于很多同学来说是学习上的难点。下面这个例子是很多同学经常问到的一道题目,网校老师针对这道题目进行了详尽的解答,我们就与大家一起来分享一下。
Both Curry City and the State have a general sales tax on all merchandise. Curry City's tax rate is 2 percent and the State's rate is 4 percent. Merchants are required by law to remit all sales tax collected each month to the State by the 15th of the following month. By law, the State has 45 days to process the collections and to make disbursements to the various jurisdictions for which it acts as an agent. Sales tax collected by merchants in Curry total $450,000 in May and $600,000 in June. Both merchants and the State make remittances in accordance with statutes. What amount of sales tax revenue for May and June is included in the June 30 year-end financial statements of the State and Curry?
State Curry
a. $700,000 $350,000
b. $1,050,000 $350,000
c. $1,050,000 $0
d. $300,000 $150,000
题目的大意是:Curry 市和该市所在州州都对全部的商品征收营业税,市的税率是2%,州的税率是4%,法律规定,经销商需要汇总每个月全部(市和州两地)的营业税,于次月的15日向州汇缴。法律上还规定,州在收到汇缴的全部营业税后,有45日的时间汇集并向其市各辖区支付(属于市的)营业税(因为在这里州仅是一个代理市收缴营业税的角色),Curry的经销商五月份应向州汇缴全部的营业税450,000,六月份则是600,000,经销商和州(政府)汇款全依照法律规定进行,那么请问五月、六月的营业税收入包括在州和市(政府)六月三十至年底的财务报表所列报的金额各为多少?
那么,从题目中可以看出经销商汇缴至州的5月份营业税一共450000,是营业收入按两地税率来计算的(一共是6%),因此,五月份营业收入就是4500000/6%=7500K,同样道理,六月份营业收入=600000/6%=10000K
150K是州六月15日收到全部的营业税后,汇划给市的营业税(按税率2%=7500K*2%=150K),因为经销商是在六月15日汇给州五月份的营业税,州则在六月15日后的第45日(也就是7月30日)支付给市。同样道理,200K是州七月15日收到全部的营业税后,汇划给市的营业税(按税率2%=10000K*2%=200K),因为经销商是在七月15日汇给州六月份的营业税,州则在七月15日后的第45日(也就是8月29日)支付给Curry市。
综上,我们就可以得到正确答案了。
