Resumo A pecuária é atividade tradicional do Pantanal, bioma que se estende por Mato Grosso do Sul e Mato Grosso e é reconhecido, pela UNESCO, como patrimônio natural mundial. Tal atividade enfrentou desafios para se adequar à legislação ambiental e atender aos interesses dos diversos atores sociais na região. Este artigo se propôs a examinar a ovinocultura na planície inundável do Pantanal como uma alternativa de produção sustentável à pecuária tradicional. A ovinocultura é vista como atividade com o potencial de equilibrar a conservação desse bioma, com o desenvolvimento socioeconômico dos produtores locais. Empregou-se a pesquisa qualiquantitativa como metodologia, que se baseou em documentos oficiais, dados estatísticos, entrevistas e em três últimos censos agropecuários. Indicou-se que a ovinocultura pode gerar renda, emprego e agregar valor aos produtos do Pantanal, além de contribuir para a preservação da biodiversidade e da cultura local. Porém, a atividade enfrenta obstáculos, como a falta de infraestrutura, assistência técnica, crédito e incentivos fiscais. A regulamentação e implementação da Lei do Pantanal pode impactar positivamente a ovinocultura, em razão dos artigos e incisos alinhados com a produção pecuária sustentável. É necessário um planejamento estratégico integrado que leve em consideração as especificidades do bioma e dos produtores, bem como a valorização das marcas locais, por meio de indicações geográficas ou selos de qualidade. reconhecido UNESCO mundial região locais Empregouse Empregou metodologia oficiais estatísticos agropecuários Indicouse Indicou renda local Porém obstáculos infraestrutura técnica fiscais qualidade

Abstract Livestock is a traditional activity in Pantanal, biome that includes the states of Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso and is recognized, by UNESCO, as a Natural World Heritage site. Such activity faced challenges to adapt to the environmental legislation and the interests of social actors of the region. This paper analyzed sheep farming in the Pantanal floodplain area as a sustainable production option for traditional livestock. Sheep farming is seen as an activity with the potential of balancing the conservation of this biome, with the socioeconomical development of local producers. The methodology consisted in a quali-quantitative research based on official documents, statistic data, interviews with public and private institutions, as well as with the ones from the third sector, and the last three agricultural census. Sheep farming has the potential to generate income, jobs and added value, besides contributing to the preservation of biodiversity and local culture. However, the activity faces obstacles, such as lack of infrastructure, technical assistance, credit and tax incentives. The regulation and implementation of the Law of Pantanal may affect, positively, the sheep farming activity, as it presents articles and sections aligned with the sustainable livestock production. An integrated strategic plan that considers the specificities of the biome, of local producers and the appreciation of local brands is needed, under geographic indications and quality seals. recognized UNESCO site region qualiquantitative quali quantitative documents data institutions sector census income value culture However obstacles infrastructure assistance incentives affect positively needed seals

Resumen La ganadería es una actividad tradicional en el Pantanal, bioma que cubre Mato Grosso do Sul y Mato Grosso y es reconocido, por la UNESCO, como patrimonio natural de la humanidad. Dicha actividad enfrenta desafíos para adaptarse a la legislación ambiental y a los intereses de los actores sociales regionales. Este artículo analiza la cría de ovinos en la llanura aluvial del Pantanal, una alternativa de producción sostenible que puede conciliar la conservación del bioma con el desarrollo socioeconómico de los productores locales. La metodología consiste en una investigación cualitativa basada en documentos oficiales, datos estadísticos y entrevistas a instituciones públicas, privadas y del tercer sector. Los resultados muestran que la cría de ovejas tiene potencial para generar ingresos, empleo y valor agregado a los productos del Pantanal, además de contribuir a la preservación de la biodiversidad y la cultura local. Sin embargo, la actividad enfrenta obstáculos, como la falta de infraestructura, asistencia técnica, crédito e incentivos fiscales. Además, la redacción de la Ley del Pantanal, en discusión a nivel estatal, podría afectar positiva o negativamente a la ganadería ovina, dependiendo del grado de participación y articulación de los stakeholders. Es necesaria una planificación estratégica integrada que considere las especificidades del bioma del Pantanal y de los productores y la valorización de las marcas locales, a través de indicaciones geográficas o sellos de calidad. reconocido UNESCO humanidad regionales locales oficiales públicas sector ingresos local embargo obstáculos infraestructura técnica fiscales Además estatal ovina stakeholders calidad

ABSTRACT This research focuses on the review of previous studies that have applied econometric models in the various economic activities carried out in the Amazonas region. It employs a documentary methodology of bibliographic review focused on the state of the art, with the purpose of evaluating a general overview of economic research conducted in the Amazonas region. These studies provide sources of analysis for economic development in different economic sectors. As a result of an exhaustive search, it has been observed that there are limited studies in the fields of agriculture, tourism, services, as well as an analysis related to income, poverty, economic growth, and tax exemptions in the Amazonas region. This highlights the importance of variables in explaining economic growth in productive sectors. It is concluded that econometric models are essential for framing an analysis of economic development in our region. It is recommended that future research should focus on the field of production and how climate changes are affecting productivity in each economic activity.

RESUMEN Esta investigación se enfoca en la revisión de estudios previos que han aplicado modelos econométricos en las diversas actividades económicas que se llevan a cabo en la región de Amazonas. Se emplea una metodología documental de revisión bibliográfica centrada en el estado del arte, con el propósito de evaluar una visión general de las investigaciones económicas realizadas en la región de Amazonas. Estas investigaciones proporcionan fuentes de análisis para el desarrollo económico en los distintos sectores económicos. Como resultado de una búsqueda exhaustiva, se ha observado que existen escasos estudios en los sectores de agricultura, turismo, servicios, así como un análisis en relación con ingresos, pobreza, crecimiento económico y exoneración de impuestos en la región de Amazonas. Esto destaca la importancia de las variables en la explicación del crecimiento económico en los sectores productivos. Se concluye que los modelos econométricos son fundamentales para plantear un análisis del desarrollo económico en nuestra región. Se recomienda que las investigaciones futuras se centren en el ámbito de la producción y en cómo los cambios climáticos están afectando la productividad en cada actividad económica.

Resumen El objetivo del trabajo es exhibir la tendencia en la utilización de mujeres en la comisión de delitos económicos, con particular referencia al delito de evasión fiscal en la República Argentina. Para ello, metodológicamente, se recurre a la doctrina que ha analizado el problema, que aún es escasa, y principalmente a la jurisprudencia reciente de los Tribunales de dicho país. En los últimos años, los tribunales especializados en materia tributaria, penal tributaria y contenciosa tributaria destacan uno de los patrones socioculturales más perniciosos que existe, el uso de mujeres para delictivos en sentencias que se proponen ver los hechos con perspectiva de género. En general, estas maniobras se cometen con mujeres vulnerables y de bajos recursos, aunque también se advierte en mujeres sin esa condición, familiares -madres, esposas e hijas- de los autores materiales de los diferentes delitos. A modo de conclusión, en el trabajo se destaca que el fenómeno conocido como feminización de la pobreza lleva a mujeres a ser parte de maniobras delictivas que otros cometen en las que son utilizadas como accionistas o como presidentas de empresas creadas al único efecto de delinquir.

Resumo O objetivo do trabalho é exibir a tendência de utilização de mulheres na comissão de delitos econômicos, com referência particular ao delito de evasão fiscal na República Argentina. Para isso, metodologicamente, recorre-se à doutrina que analisou o problema, que ainda é escassa, e principalmente à jurisprudência recente dos Tribunais de dicho país. Com efeito, nos últimos anos os tribunais especializados em matéria tributária, tanto tributários penais como tributários de conteúdo, em sentenças que se propuseram uma visão dos hechos com perspectiva de gênero se destacam especialmente um dos patronos socioculturais mais perniciosos que existem que são o uso de mulheres com multas delitivas. Geralmente, se ele for levado a cabo com mulheres vulneráveis e de baixos recursos, mas também se aconselhará a mulheres sem suas condições, em geral familiares - mães, esposas e hijas - dos verdadeiros autores materiais dos diferentes delitos. Para concluir, no trabalho se destaca que o fenômeno conhecido como feminização da pobreza leva as mulheres a ser parte de maniobras delictivas que outras ocorrem nas que são utilizadas como acionistas ou como presidentes de empresas criadas como único efeito de delinquência.

Abstract The objective of this paper is to show the trend in the use of women in the commission of economic crimes, with particular reference to tax evasion in Argentina. To this end, methodologically, we resort to the doctrine that has analysed the problem, which is still scarce, and mainly to the recent jurisprudence of the Courts of that country. In fact, in recent years, the courts specialized in tax matters, both tax criminal and tax litigation, in judgments that have proposed a vision of the facts with a gender perspective, especially highlight one of the most pernicious socio-cultural patterns that exists, which is the use of women for criminal purposes. Generally, it is carried out with vulnerable and low-income women, although it is also observed in women without this condition, generally relatives - mothers, wives and daughters - of the real perpetrators of the different crimes.By way of conclusion, the paper highlights that the phenomenon known as the feminization of poverty leads women to be part of criminal maneuvers that other actors commit in which they are used as shareholders or as presidents of companies created for the sole purpose of committing crimes typical of economic crime.

Resumen En este trabajo reconstruimos los envíos de remesas desde las tesorerías regionales que componían la Real Hacienda del Virreinato del Río de la Plata hacia la caja de Buenos Aires entre 1780 y 1800. Sobre la base de los libros mayores de contabilidad de la caja de Buenos Aires, estimamos los volúmenes de recursos que las cajas del interior rioplatense enviaron a la administración de hacienda de la capital. En una comparación con la evolución de los fondos del situado potosino (principal ingreso de la tesorería principal del Virreinato) buscamos evaluar la relevancia que los recursos aportados por otras jurisdicciones tuvieron en los ingresos de la caja de Buenos Aires. Consideramos la reconstrucción de estos valores como elemento fundamental para poder elaborar indicadores de presión fiscal durante las últimas décadas del siglo XVIII que logren diferenciar/identificar las cargas de las múltiples jurisdicciones fiscales que componían el sistema de la hacienda colonial (municipal, regional, corporativo, virreinal). Las principales fuentes utilizadas se componen de libros de contabilidad (mayores) de la caja de Buenos Aires, de la caja de Santa Fe, Caja de Mendoza y libros manuales de arbitrios de Santa Fe (Archivo General de la Nación).

Abstract In this paper we reconstruct the remittances sent from the regional treasuries of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata to the Buenos Aires treasury between 1780 and 1800. Based on the accounting ledgers of the Buenos Aires treasury, we estimate the amounts of resources that the haciendas of the interior sent to the administration of the capital. In a comparison with the evolution of the funds of the "situado potosino" (main income of the main treasury of the Viceroyalty) we seek to evaluate the relevance that the resources provided by other jurisdictions had in the Buenos Aires treasury. We consider the reconstruction of these values as a fundamental element for stablishing fiscal pressure indicators during the last decades of the 18th century. Also, to identify the burdens of the multiple tax jurisdictions that made up the colonial real hacienda system (municipal, regional, corporate, viceroyalty). The main sources used are made up of accounting books of the treasuries of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Mendoza, and manual books of "arbitrios of Santa Fe" (Archivo General de la Nación)

The South African mineral resource royalty system, initiated in 2010, employs a hybrid ad valorem approach tied to profitability ratios. This rate is then applied to the total revenue from mineral sales. In this article we explore how the profitability ratio in the mineral resource royalty formulae interacts with the gold tax formula as applied to South African gold mines, devising a strategy for cut-off grade optimization. The study focuses on nine narrow, tabular-reef (Witwatersrand) gold mines. The approach involves a mixed-integer cut-off grade optimizer utilizing Excel Solver, incorporating relevant royalty and income tax formulae. Different mineral resource royalty cost scenarios were examined. Ignoring these costs in the break-even analysis lowers the cut-off grade but slightly boosts profits compared to considering expected costs. The developed optimizer model, recognizing the profitability aspect of the mineral resource royalty and income tax formulae, yielded a 6% lower cut-off grade than the base case. This is significant for increasing mine life. While the profit differences are marginal (0.2% compared to the break-even base case), substantial improvements were noted: a 6% increase in stope tons above cut-off grade, and a 4% rise in total revenue. Enhanced resource utilization (3% extra gold kilograms) reduces necessary development and overall costs, allowing for a reduction in the cut-off grade and ultimately, more profit.

ABSTRACT At present, it is observed that individuals significantly increase the value of their assets, in many cases, such increases have no justification, so they omit the payment of their taxes, generating a low tax collection in the country. The objective of this research work was to analyze the criteria that allow the detection of the unjustified increase in wealth of Peruvian individuals. The methodology applied was qualitative, phenomenological design, with a non-probabilistic sampling based on the professional experiences of three experts in tax matters. The result was that the tax administration applies certain criteria, classified under the following headings: financial system, social, informality, auditing and digitalization. The most important criteria during the COVID 19 pandemic were e-commerce and social networks, used to generate income and evade taxes. It is concluded that natural persons incur in unjustified asset growth, due to lack of knowledge, because they do not wish to formalize or because they do not have a technical accounting team to guide them in the aforementioned criteria. It is suggested that the tax administration should supervise the new criteria related to digitalization in order to reduce unjustified capital gains in Peru.

RESUMEN En la actualidad, se observa que las personas naturales incrementan significativamente el valor de su patrimonio, en muchos casos, dichos incrementos no tienen justificación alguna, por lo que omiten el pago de sus tributos, generando en el país una baja recaudación. El presente trabajo investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar los criterios que permiten la detección del incremento patrimonial no justificado en las personas naturales del Perú. La metodología aplicada fue de tipo cualitativo, diseño fenomenológico, tiene un muestreo no probabilístico basándose en las experiencias profesionales de tres expertos en materia tributaria. Obteniendo como resultado que la administración tributaria aplica ciertos criterios, clasificados en los siguientes rubros: sistema financiero, social, informalidad, fiscalización y digitalización. Siendo los criterios más resaltantes durante la pandemia COVID 19 el comercio electrónico y redes sociales, utilizados para generar ingresos y evadir impuestos. Se concluye que las personas naturales incurren en incremento patrimonial injustificado, por desconocimiento, porque no desean formalizarse o porque no cuentan con un equipo técnico contable que les oriente en los criterios antes mencionados. Se sugiere que la administración tributaria, deba fiscalizar a los nuevos criterios relacionados con la digitalización, para reducir el incremento patrimonial no justificado en el Perú.

Resumen El objetivo fue estimar el impacto que tendrán los precios de garantía y de mercado del maíz blanco sobre el impuesto predial rústico para el 2023. Se utilizaron datos del Sistema de Información Agropecuaria y Pesquera (SIAP, 2022). El método utilizado es el deductivo y la investigación es de tipo explicativa y descriptiva. Los resultados indican que otorgar precios de garantía solo a productores de hasta 15 hectáreas y, excluir a los que sembraron más allá de esa superficie, afectará la recaudación. Entre los hallazgos se tiene la importancia de la siembra de maíz blanco para financiar obras públicas en comunidades rurales. Su originalidad radica relacionar la producción del maíz con el principal impuesto local de los gobiernos municipales: el predial. Por limitaciones no se pudo tener acceso al mecanismo de recaudación descentralizado, a partir de junio del presente año, para administrar dicho tributo.

Abstract The objective was to estimate the impact that the guarantee and market prices of white corn will have on the rustic property tax for 2023. Data from the Agricultural and Fisheries Information System (SIAP, 2022) were used. The method used is deductive and the research is explanatory and descriptive. The results indicate that granting guaranteed prices to producers of up to 15 hectares and excluding those who sowed beyond that area, will affect the collection. Among the findings is the importance of planting white corn to finance public works in rural communities. Its originality lies in the studied relationship production of corn with the main local tax of municipal governments: the predial. Due to limitations, it was impossible to have access to the decentralized collection mechanism, as of June of this year, to administer said tax.

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze the impact of the tax regulatory framework in Ecuador and the Latin American region in relation to foreign exchange leakage and its impact on economic growth. A qualitative approach and a document review technique are used to examine the literature and current studies on progressive tax measures in Latin America. The results reveal that tax measures have contributed to increased tax collection and the financing of social programs, although challenges remain in terms of equity and administrative efficiency. The effectiveness of strategies such as exchange rate limitations in containing capital flight is highlighted. The analysis underlines the importance of a comprehensive approach, combining fiscal and macro prudential measures, to effectively address capital flight and promote economic stability in the region.

RESUMEN Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el impacto del marco normativo tributario en Ecuador y la región latinoamericana en relación con la fuga de divisas y su repercusión en el crecimiento económico. Se emplea un enfoque cualitativo y la técnica de revisión documental para examinar la literatura y estudios actuales sobre medidas fiscales progresivas en América Latina. Los resultados revelan que las medidas impositivas han contribuido al aumento de la recaudación fiscal y la financiación de programas sociales, aunque persisten desafíos en términos de equidad y eficiencia administrativa. Se destaca la eficacia de estrategias como las limitaciones cambiarias para contener la fuga de capitales. El análisis subraya la importancia de un enfoque integral, combinando medidas fiscales y macro prudenciales, para abordar eficazmente la fuga de capitales y promover la estabilidad económica en la región.

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how the once-off increase in regional income that will result from investment in roads and the recurring increase in regional income that will stem from the use of economically viable new roads can be estimated. Once-off economic benefits occur because of the multiplier effect triggered by the initial investment expenditure on a road, while recurring economic benefits result from the income accelerator effect that use of the road during its service period will have. To determine the regional income multiplier effect of the investment expenditure on a proposed road during its construction period, it is necessary to estimate (i) the tax amounts included in the investment amount as a ratio of the total project investment amount, (ii) the monetary amount saved by project workers as a ratio of the total project investment amount, and (iii) the expenditure on imported project inputs as a ratio of the total project investment amount. An analysis that incorporates the above-mentioned three fund leakages from the circular flow of regional income will show that the representative income multiplier of South African rural paved road construction projects has a value of 4,58. The gross national income multiplier effect stemming from road construction expenditure can be categorised as follows: In the rating scale above, a gross national income multiplier effect stemming from road construction projects with a value of less than 2,00 is regarded as "poor", because such a multiplier value is usually associated with economically unviable road projects. Gross national road construction multiplier effects with a value of 2,00 or more are associated with economically viable projects. An analysis as referred to above will show that, with a once-off gross income multiplier value of 4,58, the construction of economically viable roads will afford the government a "very good" opportunity to generate income effectively, especially considering that the national economy-wide gross income multiplier in South Africa is 3,27, which shows that the gross income multiplier of road construction is 40% higher than the economy-wide gross income multiplier. The reasons why the once-off gross regional income multiplier stemming from construction expenditure on rural road projects is "very good" are as follows: Multiplier Rating 1 – 1,99 Poor 2 – 2,99 Satisfactory 3 – 3,99 Good 4 – 4,99 Very good < 5 Excellent (1) A substantial proportion of the payroll of road construction workers is subject to zero or low personal income tax rates. (2) The propensity to consume among rural, unskilled and semi-skilled workers (in areas where rural roads are constructed) is generally high, which implies a low savings leakage. (3) Labourers needed for road construction are usually recruited from (or from close by) the areas where a road is to be built. Furthermore, low-income earners tend to buy and consume goods that are produced locally. (4) Generally, there is a relatively small need to import economic resources for road construction projects. Items like timber, sand, stone, gravel, filling material, bitumen, cement, steel and most of the road construction equipment are of regional or, at least, South African origin. The pace at which an economically viable road will stimulate regional income will be reflected by the new traffic it induces and any existing traffic that it diverts from less beneficial roads. In the social cost-benefit analysis of a road, it is estimated by what proportion induced and diverted traffic will increase the road user surplus. This expected proportional increase in road user surplus will accelerate (stimulate) the once-off regional multiplier and is termed the "regional income stimulation factor". Project-driven induced investment activities - i.e. downstream investment activities made possible by the provision of the road - usually (a) involve technically more sophisticated construction projects than the analysed road itself, (b) require the importation of a greater proportion of finished goods and specialised equipment, and (c) involve more skilled and highly skilled workers, whose income is subject to high income tax rates and who exhibit a higher propensity for saving than unskilled workers. Such downstream activities will collectively have a greater leakage effect than that incorporated in the once-off regional multiplier pertaining to construction of the road, which will depress the magnitude of the recurring regional income accelerator. The different formulae used to calculate the recurring income accelerator are detailed in the body of the article.

Hierdie artikel dui aan hoe die eenmalige verhoging in streeksinkome wat uit investeringsbesteding tydens die bou van 'n pad spruit, en die herhalende bykomende streeksinkome wat uit die gebruik van 'n ekonomies geregverdigde nuwe pad spruit, deur onderskeidelik streeksinkomevermenigvuldigerontleding en streeksinkome-versnellerontleding beraam kan word. Om die effek van die streeksinkomevermenigvuldiger van die uitgawe verbonde aan die bou van 'n pad te bepaal, moet (i) die belastings wat by die bou-uitgawe ingesluit is, as 'n verhouding van die totale bou-uitgawe, (ii) die bedrae geld wat deur projekwerkers gespaar word, as 'n verhouding van die totale bou-uitgawe, en (iii) die besteding aan ingevoerde projekinsette, as 'n verhouding van die totale bou-uitgawe, bepaal word. Ontledings wat bogenoemde drie fondslekkasies uit die kringloop van streeksinkome in ag neem, toon dat die verteenwoordigende inkomevermenigvuldiger van Suid-Afrikaanse bouprojekte vir buitestedelike geplaveide paaie 'n waarde van 4,58 het. Op die beoordelingskaal van inkomevermenigvuldigerwaardes vir die bou van buitestedelike paaie bied dit aan die staat 'n "baie goeie" geleentheid om inkome te genereer, veral as in ag geneem word dat die gemiddelde inkomevermenigvuldiger van besteding in die Suid-Afrikaanse ekonomie 'n waarde van 3,27 het. Die formules waarmee die eenmalige inkomevermenigvuldiger beraam word, word in die liggaam van die artikel uiteengesit. Die herhalende versnelde streeksinkome wat uit die gebruik van 'n ekonomies lewensvat-bare pad spruit, is gelyk aan die produk van (a) die huidige waarde van die herhalende pad-gebruikersvoordele wat uit die gebruik van die pad spruit, en (b) die waarde van die streeks-inkomeversneller van die gebruik van die pad. 'n Streeksinkomeversneller wat as verstekwaarde kan dien in die ekonomiese-impakontleding van 'n ekonomies lewensvatbare geplaveide buitestedelike pad in gevalle waar dit nie haalbaar is om 'n projek-eie versneller te probeer beraam nie, word in die artikel bereken. Die formules waarmee die herhalende-inkomeversneller beraam word, word in die liggaam van die artikel uiteengesit.

Abstract The determination of the tax savings´ value and the impact of income tax on the firm valuation is related to the current tax systems. The tax effects imply cash out flow and savings, and, must be analyzed with the tax systems where the firm operates. Modigliani and Miller (1963) and Miller (1977) works suppose a classical system of income tax. The World Trade Organization (OCDE), identify seven tax systems classified into two large groups: integrated and classical. The paper reviews the existing models, particularly the General Model. Next, shows the value equations corresponding to the different tax systems. Through an analysis of cases, the impact on the variables of the tax system in which the firm operates is analyzed, according to the systems classified by the OECD.

Resumen La determinación del valor de los ahorros fiscales y el impacto del impuesto a la renta en la valuación de empresa depende del sistema tributario vigente en el mercado. Los efectos fiscales que implican pagos y ahorros deben analizarse con el sistema tributario donde opera la firma. Los trabajos de Modigliani y Miller (1963) y Miller (1977) suponen un sistema clásico de imposición a la renta. La Organización Mundial del Comercio (OCDE) identifica siete sistemas tributarios clasificados en dos grandes grupos: integrados y clásicos. El trabajo revisa los modelos existentes, particularmente el Modelo General. Seguidamente, expone las ecuaciones de valor correspondientes a los diferentes sistemas tributarios. Mediante un análisis de casos se analiza el impacto en las variables del sistema tributario en el que opera la firma, según los sistemas clasificados por la OCDE.

En un Brasil donde los indicadores de empobrecimiento de la población siguen aumentando, es preocupante el hecho de que las personas gasten dinero para comprar cigarrillo en lugar de usarlo en acciones para fortalecer los aspectos del bienestar de sus vidas y la de sus familias. A partir de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud brasileña realizada en 2019, se estimó la influencia del gasto en cigarrillo industrializado en el presupuesto familiar de los hogares donde vivía al menos un fumador, estratificado por características sociodemográficas. Los fumadores brasileños destinaron alrededor del 8% del ingreso per cápita mensual promedio del hogar para la compra de cigarrillos industrializados. El porcentaje del gasto mensual promedio en cigarrillos alcanzó casi el 10% de este ingreso entre los fumadores de 15 a 24 años y fue aún mayor para los que tenían educación primaria incompleta (aproximadamente el 11%). En el Norte y Nordeste del país, ese gasto superó el 9%. El estado con un mayor compromiso con los ingresos del hogar fue Acre (el 13,6%), seguido por Alagoas (el 11,9%), Ceará, Pará y Tocantins (todos con aproximadamente el 11%). Por lo tanto, nuestros resultados resaltan la importancia de fortalecer la implementación de medidas efectivas para reducir la proporción de fumadores, tal como la política tributaria. Así, el dinero que actualmente las personas destinan a la compra de cigarrillos podría utilizarse en la atención de sus necesidades básicas, contribuyendo a promover la salud y la mejora de la calidad de vida.

Em um Brasil no qual os indicadores de empobrecimento da população seguem aumentando, preocupa o fato de que indivíduos gastem dinheiro para comprar cigarro em vez de usarem esse recurso em ações que fortaleçam aspectos do bem-estar de suas jornadas de vida e de suas famílias. Estimou-se, a partir da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde de 2019, a influência que o gasto com cigarro industrializado teve no orçamento familiar nos domicílios com pelo menos um fumante, estratificada por características sociodemográficas. Os fumantes brasileiros destinaram cerca de 8% do rendimento médio mensal domiciliar per capita para a compra de cigarros industrializados. O percentual do gasto médio mensal chegou a quase 10% desse rendimento, entre os fumantes de 15 a 24 anos, e foi ainda maior para aqueles com Ensino Fundamental incompleto (aproximadamente 11%). Nas regiões Norte e Nordeste do país, esse gasto ultrapassou os 9%. O estado com o maior comprometimento da renda domiciliar foi o Acre (13,6%), seguido por Alagoas (11,9%), Ceará, Pará e Tocantins (todos com aproximadamente 11%). Nossos achados reforçam, portanto, a importância de fortalecer a implementação de medidas efetivas de redução da proporção de fumantes, tal como a política tributária. Dessa forma, o dinheiro que atualmente é destinado pelos indivíduos à compra de cigarros poderá ser revertido no atendimento de suas necessidades básicas, contribuindo para a promoção da saúde e melhoria da qualidade de vida.

In a country whose indicators of population impoverishment continue to increase, it is concerning that individuals spend money to buy cigarettes instead of using this resource in actions that strengthen aspects of the well-being of their lives and that of their families. Based on the Brazilian National Health Survey conducted in 2019, the influence of spending on manufactured cigarettes on the family budget in households with at least one smoker was estimated, stratified by sociodemographic characteristics. Brazilian smokers allocated around 8% of their average per capita monthly household income to the purchase of manufactured cigarettes. The percentage of average monthly expenditure on cigarettes reached almost 10% of this income among smokers aged 15 to 24 and was even higher for those with incomplete elementary education (approximately 11%). In the North and Northeast regions of the country, this expenditure exceeded 9%. The state with the most significant impact on household income was Acre (13.6%), followed by Alagoas (11.9%), Ceará, Pará, and Tocantins (all with approximately 11%). Our findings, therefore, reinforce the importance of strengthening the implementation of effective measures, such as tax policy, to reduce the proportion of smokers. Thus, the money that individuals currently allocate to purchase cigarettes can be used to meet their basic needs, contributing to the promotion of health and improving the quality of life.

Exchange of information is a mechanism that enables tax authorities to share tax information across borders. Exchange of information curtails harmful practices such as tax evasion and tax avoidance by promoting cooperation between tax authorities. Recent world events have seen unprecedented levels of globalisation and novel income-earning structures. Taxpayers earn income from streams that were previously unavailable. These developments have led tax authorities to implement policies that focus on improved financial transparency and better multilateral cooperation. This article argues for the implementation of blockchain technology to facilitate exchange of information in South Africa. Blockchain is a ledger that records and stores information on an online network. Blockchain's features make it conducive for use in cross-border administration and exchange of tax information. Blockchain creates a platform for financial transparency because data stored on the blockchain is reliable and accurate. Tax information is exchanged in real time, thereby reducing tax authorities' administrative burden and enhancing cooperation.

Hybrid and remote working opportunities have become more prevalent, leading to an increase in attempts to claim income tax deductions for home office expenditure. SARS disallowed over R1.8 billion of the R2.9 billion home office tax claims in the 2021/2022 tax year. Unfortunately, efforts to lobby government to relax the requirements of section 23(b) of the Income Tax Act 58 of 1962 have not been met with legislative response. Section 23(b)'s exclusive-use requirement is particularly troublesome. Given the lack of legislative response, this article considers whether the exclusive-use requirement may be interpreted in a manner that would assist more taxpayers to claim a home office deduction. This article argues that the exclusive-use requirement does not require taxpayers to set aside an entire room to be able to claim home office expenditure. Unfortunately for taxpayers, it also finds that "exclusively" is not reasonably capable of bearing a meaning other than "solely" and that absent the application of the de minimis non curat lex rule, any private use of the home office space is fatal to the deduction of home office expenditure. The limited application of the de minimis non curat lex rule to dismiss insignificant private use offers no solution to taxpayers who live in modest homes and who necessarily work in mixed-use spaces. It also considers SAIT's proposal to tie the exclusive-use requirement to working hours through an interpretative argument and argues that it is unlikely to succeed. This article ultimately concludes that it appears as though taxpayers will find little relief from the exclusive-use requirement through interpretive arguments and must increase their efforts to lobby for legislative amendments instead. However, caution is required because SAICA's proposal that the exclusive-use requirement be removed through legislative amendment could trigger unintended consequences.

RESUMO Objetivo: O presente trabalho se propôs a verificar se o gerenciamento do lucro tributável por meio de práticas de agressividade tributária gera um impacto negativo na acurácia das previsões dos analistas de mercado. Originalidade/valor: A contribuição central deste estudo é a de relacionar a agressividade tributária com maiores erros nas previsões dos analistas. Com isso, a relevância deste estudo está em evidenciar que essa prática pode levar a uma maior percepção dos riscos das companhias e maior assimetria informacional, além de influenciar os preços das ações e acarretar menor acurácia dos analistas. Design/metodologia/abordagem: Esta pesquisa foi desenvolvida a partir de modelos de regressões com dados em painel com efeitos aleatórios. Também foram utilizados estimadores baseados em variáveis instrumentais com a aplicação do teste de Jensen para verificação da validade da estimação pelo método de momentos generalizado (generalized method of moments – GMM). Os dados foram tratados com a técnica de winsorização ao nível de 1%. Resultados: A partir de uma amostra composta por empresas listadas na B3 entre 2010 e 2017 (com um total de 2.805 observações válidas), os resultados mostraram que as empresas que apresentam maior agressividade tributária estão sujeitas a um maior erro de previsão dos analistas. Assim, infere-se que, para as empresas mais agressivas, o grau de previsibilidade dos analistas diminui. Com essa queda na qualidade da previsão dos analistas, os usuários de suas previsões e relatórios tornam-se mais vulneráveis à assimetria informacional.

ABSTRACT Purpose: This paper aims to verify whether the management of taxable income through aggressive tax practices negatively impacts the accuracy of market analysts’ forecasts. Originality/value: The central contribution of this study is to relate tax aggressiveness with more significant errors in analysts’ forecasts. Thus, the relevance of this paper is in showing that this practice can lead to a greater perception of companies’ risks and more significant informational asymmetry, in addition to influencing stock prices and resulting in lower analyst accuracy. Design/methodology/approach: This research paper was developed from regression models with panel data with random effects, also using estimators based on instrumental variables with the application of Jensen’s test to verify the validity of the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation. The data were treated with the winsorization technique at the 1% level. Findings: A sample of companies listed on the B3 between 2010 and 2017 (with a total of 2,805 valid observations) showed that companies with higher tax aggressiveness are subject to a higher analyst forecast error. Thus, it is inferred that, for more aggressive companies, the degree of analyst predictability decreases. With this drop in the quality of analysts’ forecasts, the users of their forecasts and reports are more vulnerable to informational asymmetry.

Em um Brasil no qual os indicadores de empobrecimento da população seguem aumentando, preocupa o fato de que indivíduos gastem dinheiro para comprar cigarro em vez de usarem esse recurso em ações que fortaleçam aspectos do bem-estar de suas jornadas de vida e de suas famílias. Estimou-se, a partir da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde de 2019, a influência que o gasto com cigarro industrializado teve no orçamento familiar nos domicílios com pelo menos um fumante, estratificada por características sociodemográficas. Os fumantes brasileiros destinaram cerca de 8% do rendimento médio mensal domiciliar per capita para a compra de cigarros industrializados. O percentual do gasto médio mensal chegou a quase 10% desse rendimento, entre os fumantes de 15 a 24 anos, e foi ainda maior para aqueles com Ensino Fundamental incompleto (aproximadamente 11%). Nas regiões Norte e Nordeste do país, esse gasto ultrapassou os 9%. O estado com o maior comprometimento da renda domiciliar foi o Acre (13,6%), seguido por Alagoas (11,9%), Ceará, Pará e Tocantins (todos com aproximadamente 11%). Nossos achados reforçam, portanto, a importância de fortalecer a implementação de medidas efetivas de redução da proporção de fumantes, tal como a política tributária. Dessa forma, o dinheiro que atualmente é destinado pelos indivíduos à compra de cigarros poderá ser revertido no atendimento de suas necessidades básicas, contribuindo para a promoção da saúde e melhoria da qualidade de vida. aumentando bemestar bem estar famílias Estimouse, Estimouse Estimou se, se Estimou-se 2019 fumante sociodemográficas 8 industrializados 10 1 2 anos 11%. 11 11% . 11%) país 9 9% 13,6%, 136 13,6% , 13 6 (13,6%) 11,9%, 119 11,9% (11,9%) Ceará todos reforçam portanto tributária forma básicas 201 13,6 (13,6% 11,9 (11,9% 20 13, (13,6 11, (11,9 (13, (11, (13 (11 (1 (

In a country whose indicators of population impoverishment continue to increase, it is concerning that individuals spend money to buy cigarettes instead of using this resource in actions that strengthen aspects of the well-being of their lives and that of their families. Based on the Brazilian National Health Survey conducted in 2019, the influence of spending on manufactured cigarettes on the family budget in households with at least one smoker was estimated, stratified by sociodemographic characteristics. Brazilian smokers allocated around 8% of their average per capita monthly household income to the purchase of manufactured cigarettes. The percentage of average monthly expenditure on cigarettes reached almost 10% of this income among smokers aged 15 to 24 and was even higher for those with incomplete elementary education (approximately 11%). In the North and Northeast regions of the country, this expenditure exceeded 9%. The state with the most significant impact on household income was Acre (13.6%), followed by Alagoas (11.9%), Ceará, Pará, and Tocantins (all with approximately 11%). Our findings, therefore, reinforce the importance of strengthening the implementation of effective measures, such as tax policy, to reduce the proportion of smokers. Thus, the money that individuals currently allocate to purchase cigarettes can be used to meet their basic needs, contributing to the promotion of health and improving the quality of life. increase wellbeing well being families 2019 estimated characteristics 8 10 1 2 11%. 11 11% . 11%) 9 9% 13.6%, 136 13.6% , 13 6 (13.6%) 11.9%, 119 11.9% (11.9%) Ceará Pará all findings therefore measures policy Thus needs life 201 13.6 (13.6% 11.9 (11.9% 20 13.

En un Brasil donde los indicadores de empobrecimiento de la población siguen aumentando, es preocupante el hecho de que las personas gasten dinero para comprar cigarrillo en lugar de usarlo en acciones para fortalecer los aspectos del bienestar de sus vidas y la de sus familias. A partir de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud brasileña realizada en 2019, se estimó la influencia del gasto en cigarrillo industrializado en el presupuesto familiar de los hogares donde vivía al menos un fumador, estratificado por características sociodemográficas. Los fumadores brasileños destinaron alrededor del 8% del ingreso per cápita mensual promedio del hogar para la compra de cigarrillos industrializados. El porcentaje del gasto mensual promedio en cigarrillos alcanzó casi el 10% de este ingreso entre los fumadores de 15 a 24 años y fue aún mayor para los que tenían educación primaria incompleta (aproximadamente el 11%). En el Norte y Nordeste del país, ese gasto superó el 9%. El estado con un mayor compromiso con los ingresos del hogar fue Acre (el 13,6%), seguido por Alagoas (el 11,9%), Ceará, Pará y Tocantins (todos con aproximadamente el 11%). Por lo tanto, nuestros resultados resaltan la importancia de fortalecer la implementación de medidas efectivas para reducir la proporción de fumadores, tal como la política tributaria. Así, el dinero que actualmente las personas destinan a la compra de cigarrillos podría utilizarse en la atención de sus necesidades básicas, contribuyendo a promover la salud y la mejora de la calidad de vida. aumentando familias 2019 fumador sociodemográficas 8 industrializados 10 1 2 11%. 11 11% . 11%) país 9 9% 13,6%, 136 13,6% , 13 6 13,6%) 11,9%, 119 11,9% 11,9%) Ceará todos tanto tributaria Así básicas vida 201 13,6 11,9 20 13, 11,
