Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 會計學系研究所 === 86 === This study uses many examples to demonstrate the accounting of income tax integration which was adopted in Taiwan in 1998. Most importantly, the study illustrates the accounting of long- term investment in stocks under the new tax system, the most complicated accounting issues never discussed in Taiwan. The major viewpoints raised in the study are: 1.The statement of financial accounting standards NO.22 in ROC should continue to be the authoritative principles of the income tax accounting. 2.After implementation of tax integration, enterprises should disclose five items related to the information about the stockholders'' credit accounts. 3.Whether the accounting of liquidation dividends is treated correctly has influence on stockholders'' credit rights. Besides, the treatments of temporary investments changing from and to long-term investment in stocks offer opportunities to enterprises to manipulate the ratio of tax credit. 4.After implementation of tax integration, the capital gain of selling the tax-deferred stock dividends obtained before 1997 should increase the balance of retained earnings. The accounting treatments are indifferent between tax-deferred stock dividends after 1998 and non-deferred stock dividends. 5.Except financial accounting, enterprises should calculate or keep records of the unit costs of both temporary and long-term investments in tax accounting under the tax integration. This can avoid incorrectly calculating the tax base of retained earnings.
