In the tax period beginning on January 1, 2022, company "A", domiciled in the Canary Islands, makes an allocation to RIC with a charge to the profits for fiscal year 2022 in the amount of 1,000 euros. In this same period, said company has profits that are not subject to distribution of 1,000,000 euros.

In 2023, it acquires a material asset for 1,000 euros that contributes to improving the environment in the Canary Islands. 

As in fiscal year 2022, in fiscal year 2023 company "A" has profits that are not subject to distribution of 1,000,000 euros.

In this case, the reduction that company "A" may apply to its tax base will be limited to 90 percent of the part of the profit obtained that is not subject to distribution:

Limit: 90% x 1,000,000 euros = €900,000.

Fiscal year 2022 :

Company "A" makes a contribution to the RIC for the amount of 1,000 euros from the profits for the 2022 financial year (it can make it because it complies with the limit, since 1,000 euros < 900,000 euros), so it must record an amount of 1,000 euros in row «Amount of the RIC endowment charged to 2022 profits» from the table «Special reserve regime for investments in the Canary Islands (Law 19/1994)» on page 22 of model 200.

However, an amount of 1,000 euros ## remains pending to be realized in subsequent periods. For this reason, company "A" must complete, in the first table on page 22 of Form 200, column "Pending materialization of RIC in future periods", in the corresponding row to the RIC 2022 for the amount of 1,000 euros .

In accordance with the above, company "A" must complete the adjustment on page 13 and the table on page 22 of form 200 corresponding to fiscal year 2022, as follows:

Fiscal year 2023 :

At the beginning of fiscal year 2023 1,000 euros of the allocation to the RIC with a charge to profits from >2022 made in fiscal year 2022 remain to be materialized, so company "A" must record in the first table on page 22 of Form 200 relating to the Special Regime of the reserve for investments in the Canary Islands (Law 19/1994) the column "Pending materialization of RIC at the beginning of the period", in the row corresponding to RIC 2022 , the amount of 1,000 euros.

The amount invested in fiscal year 2023 is 1,000 euros, so company "A" must complete the first table on page 22 of the Model 200 relating to the Special Regime of the reserve for investments in the Canary Islands (Law 19/1994) stating in column «Investments planned letters B bis, C and D, art. 27.4 Law 19/1994", in the row corresponding to RIC 2022 , the amount of the materialization, that is, 1,000 euros . In fiscal year 2023, the total amount of the provision made during 2022 is materialized, so there is nothing pending to be materialized for future years. For this reason, company "A" should not complete the column "Pending materialization of RIC at the end of the period".
