• The value of the exempt assets and rights, determined in accordance with the rules for valuing the tax reduced, where applicable, in the value of the charges, encumbrances and debts corresponding to them that, If there is no such exemption, they would be considered tax deductible, it must be added to the amount of the taxable base, in order to determine the basis for the application of the tax scale.

• Once said average rate is obtained, it will be applied exclusively on the liquidable base , without including exempt goods and rights, except to determine the tax rate, also called progressively exempt elements.
