Temporary negative adjustments originating in the financial year

In the event that the taxpayer has to make a correction to the result of the Profit and Loss Account that entails a temporary negative correction originating in the year to the accounting result, by completing the corresponding box on pages 12 and 13, the will simultaneously show in the WEB Companies form the breakdown table “Details of the corrections to the result of the profit and loss account (excluding the correction for Corporate Tax)” on page 19 of form 200. This information, once completed, will be grouped in the detail table contained on pages 26 bis to 26 exies of model 200.

In this case, the box corresponding to «Decreases in c or temporary corrections originating in the year» of the part of the table dedicated to «Exercise corrections». Likewise, the box Future increases of Temporary corrections must be completed in the column corresponding to “Outstanding balance at the end of the year”. The reason is that, although it is a negative adjustment at origin, will reverse through positive extra-accounting adjustments, this means that this negative temporary correction originating in the year will mean future increases in the tax base , therefore, in the "Pending balance at the end of the year" column, the Future increases column must be completed, so that year Each year the balance increases if the adjustment continues to be at origin or decreases, if that adjustment has begun to revert, but always in the Future Increases column . Once the first tax period in which the adjustment is made has elapsed, in the following settlements the box for future increases in the column “Pending balance at the end of the year” must be completed with the the same amount that was entered in the Future increase box of the column “Outstanding balance at the end of the year” of the settlement of the previous tax period.

For all of the above, during the tax periods in which the correction originates in the fiscal year itself, in the part of the table corresponding to the "Outstanding balance at the end of the fiscal year" the box Future increases ##2##of Temporary corrections will be increased in value with respect to the Balance of the previous year by the amount of the correction positive of this exercise. With all this, the « Outstanding balance at the end of the financial year » will reflect the total amount pending to be reversed in subsequent years through positive extra-accounting adjustments.

Example:

The Joint Stock Company "D", which in 2022 meets the requirements for the application of tax incentives for small-sized companies, acquires a computer, making it available and operating the July 1, 2022 , all for an amount of 6,000 euros. It is estimated that the residual value of the element is insignificant, so the amortizable value coincides with the acquisition price.

The company decides to carry out the accounting depreciation of the computer according to its estimated technical depreciation, which is the result of applying a coefficient of 25 percent. The entity also decides to carry out the tax-deductible amortization of the computer by applying the multiplier coefficient of 2 referred to in article 103 of the LIS .

The financial year of the entity coincides with the calendar year. The tax-deductible amortization in fiscal year 2022 will be as follows:

  • Maximum coefficient applicable to the computer according to the officially approved amortization tables: 25%.

  • Application of the multiplier coefficient: 2 x 25% = 50%.

  • Accelerated amortization practiced: 6,000 x 6/12 (1) x 50% = 1,500 euros.

    Note 1) Amortization is carried out from the date of entry into operation of the amortizable element, in this case, July 1, 2022 . Therefore, in this exercise, said amortization must refer to that carried out in six months of the year 2022 of the LIS. (Back)

The accounting amortization carried out by Company “D” in fiscal year 2022 will be as follows:

6,000 x 6/12 (2) x 25% = 750 euros

Note (2) Amortization is carried out from the date of entry into operation of the amortizable element, in this case, July 1, 2022 . Therefore, in this exercise, said amortization must refer to that carried out in six months of the year 2022 of the LIS. (Back)

Decrease in the result of the profit and loss account to be recorded in box [00314]: 1,500 - 750 = 750 euros

Therefore, in exercise 2022 and following , the corrections to be made in boxes [00313] and [00314] “Differences between accounting and tax amortization (art. 12.1 LIS)” on page 12 of form 200 will be:

2022 6,000 x 0.5 x 50% = 1,500 6,000 x 0.5 x 25% = 750 --- 750 [00314] 750
2023 6,000 x 50% = 3,000 6,000 x 25% = 1,500 --- 1,500 [00314] 2,250
2024 Rest of active value = 1,500 6,000 x 25% = 1,500 --- --- --- 2,250
2025 --- 6,000 x 25% = 1,500 1,500 --- [00313] 750
2026 --- Rest active value = 750 750 --- [00313] 0

Total tax amortization = 1,500 + 3,000 + 1,500 = 6,000

Total accounting amortization = 750 + 1,500 + 1,500 + 1,500 + 750 = 6,000

In the WEB Companies form, in fiscal year 2022 when the box [00314] is to be completed, the table on page 19 of form 200 will be displayed and the Decreases box for “ Temporary corrections originating in the year” in the part of the table dedicated to “Corrections for the year” must be completed in the amount of 750 euros. The form will transfer the completed information to box box [03197] “Temporary (originating in the financial year)” on page 26d of form 200. Likewise, in the table displayed on page 19, the part corresponding to " Outstanding balance at the end of the year" must be completed, as we are dealing with a negative adjustment at source , the box for Future increases of Temporary corrections for a value of 750 euros must be completed, because this negative temporary difference at origin will reverse through positive extra-accounting adjustments and will lead to future increases in the tax base. The form will transfer the completed information to box box [03195] “Outstanding balance at year-end” on page 26d of form 200.

In fiscal year 2023 :

  • Accelerated amortization practiced: 6,000 x 50% = 3,000 euros.
  • The accounting amortization carried out by Company “D” in fiscal year 2023 will be as follows: 6,000 x 25% = 1,500 euros

Decrease in the result of the profit and loss account to be recorded in box [00314]: 3,000 – 1,500 = 1,500 euros

In the WEB Companies form, in fiscal year 2023 , this adjustment will continue to be a temporary correction originating in fiscal year , therefore, in the same way as in 2022 , when box [00314] is to be completed, the table on page 19 of form 200 will be displayed and must be completed the box Decreases of « Temporary corrections originating in the financial year» of the part of the table dedicated to «Corrections of the financial year» in the amount of 1,500 euros. The form will transfer the information to box [03197] “Temporary (originating in the fiscal year)” on page 26d of form 200.

Likewise, in the table displayed on page 19, the part corresponding to " Outstanding balance at the beginning of the year" must be completed. As we are dealing with a negative adjustment at origin , the Future increases of Temporary corrections box must be completed amount of 750 euros since this is the value of the future increase box in the column " Outstanding balance at the end of the year" of the year 2022 .

Regarding the part corresponding to " Outstanding balance at the end of the year" , as it is a negative adjustment at source, the box must be completed. Future increases of Temporary corrections because this negative temporary difference at origin will be reversed through positive off-the-books adjustments and will imply future increases of the tax base. The amount of the aforementioned box will be 2,250 euros (750 + 1,500), which is the accumulated balance of 2022 and 2023 . The form will transfer the information to box [03195] “Outstanding balance at year-end” on page 26d of form 200.
