TASK 1
Critically analysis of UK taxation system with different country.
In financial term, the main sources which are useful for government in managing different types
of small and large project within a country is known as Tax. This income is directly or indirectly
collected from the customers or individuals as well as business organisation. Some of the
common example of direct tax are property, income, personal tax, on the other side indirect tax
includes VAT, GST, Entertainment tax etc. The collection of tax makes government to be more
focused on developing the economy of country mainly implementing new technologies, building
of parks and malls which helps in increasing the living standard of peoples. The phase ‘Taxation’
is basically used for the authority responsible for imposing and collecting taxes usually the ruling
parties of nations which results in increasing the revenues that can be further used in developing
the economic level. There is a specific fee which is imposed on citizen or businesses which is
involuntary which is opposed to some other transaction that is not connected to any other certain
services which are been provided (Australia Tax system. 2021).
The job of collecting and monitoring the entire taxes in UK is mainly operated by HMRC
(HM revenue and customs). There have been different forms of UK taxation system such as
income, plant and property, VAT, inheritance, capital tax which clearly defines that there have
been a certain percentage for all types of people such as higher income citizen will have taxes. In
the recent financial year 2019/20 £633.4 billion which states that there has been increase of 2.1%
from the previous year.

As per the finance Act, 2012 the primary corporate tax rate seems to be 19 percent, which does
not apply to earnings from oil resources as well as retrieval. If taxable profits could be ascribed
with the use of intellectual property, the rate has been reduced to 10%. The 25 percent diverted
earnings tax is applied if major companies utilize artificial agreements to redirect overseas
profits to stop spending UK taxation. If a limited company throughout the UK or has its main
supervision and operation mostly in UK, it is a citizen tax paying citizen. A foreign entity is
considered to get a legal structure with in UK whether it has a designated location of operation in
the UK from which it performs its operation directly or indirectly, and if it has an intelligence
agent on its behalf throughout the UK (British Tax system. 2021).
On the other side, tax system of Australia defines that Australian citizens can be taxed
heavily earned anywhere in the country, while non-residents can only be taxed on income earned
in Australia. To decide if a person or a corporation is a citizen or resident, Australian law
includes unique residency laws. Australia has a method for deciding if a specified quantity of
income was received in Australia or abroad. In certain cases, money is obtained from one's place
of work or an established notions of activity. Foreign contracts are frequently sourced based on
the position of the applicable contract, but these general principles are subject to modification
based on the situation.
From the above all discussion, it can be observed that England, Scotland (with some
exceptions due to Scotland's distinctive judicial system), Wales, Ireland and several of the tiny
islands off the Mediterranean coastline are all subject to the British financial system. It also
involves oil exploration projects in British maritime borders, but the British Isles as well as the
Isle of Man are expressly exempt. Throughout the United Kingdom, citizen businesses are
required to pay taxes profits. Only the business income of a UK legal entity or the stock
investments due to a transaction in trading in or expanding UK property are subjected to UK
corporate tax for non-resident corporations (even if there is no PE in the UK). Non-UK citizen
businesses, such as those that invest in UK property via pooled investment trusts, will be
expected to pay corporate tax on gains through UK property starting April 6, 2020, rather than
income tax. Capital gains are tax liability for a business, and they are excluded if they come from
the selling of large company shares from both UK and international firms. Throughout the six
years leading up the acquisition, significant shareholding is also characterized as an involvement
in a maximum of 10% of even an investment business for a duration of 12 months.
