Who can apply USN

Russian organizations and individual entrepreneurs who have voluntarily chosen the simplified tax system and who have the right to apply this system. Companies and entrepreneurs who have not expressed a desire to switch to “simplification” apply other taxation systems by default. In other words, the transition to the payment of a single "simplified" tax cannot be forced.

What taxes do not need to be paid when applying the simplified tax system

In the general case, organizations that have switched to the “simplified system” are exempt from income tax and property tax. Individual entrepreneurs - from personal income tax and property tax of individuals. In addition, both do not pay value added tax (except for VAT on imports). Other taxes and fees must be paid in the general manner. So, “simplifiers” must make payments for compulsory insurance from the salaries of employees, withhold and transfer personal income tax, etc.

However, there are exceptions to the general rules. So, from January 1, 2015, some "simplified" people need to pay property tax. From this date, exemption from paying this tax does not apply to real estate objects in respect of which the property tax base is determined as the cadastral value. Such property can include, for example, retail and office real estate (clause 1 of article 378.2, clause 3 of article 346.11 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).

Where the "simplified" system operates

Throughout the Russian Federation without any regional or local restrictions. The rules for switching to the simplified tax system and returning to other taxation systems are the same for all Russian organizations and entrepreneurs, regardless of location.

Who is not entitled to switch to the simplified tax system

Organizations that have opened branches, banks, insurers, budget institutions, pawnshops, investment and non-state pension funds, microfinance organizations, as well as a number of other companies.

In addition, “simplification” is prohibited for companies and entrepreneurs that produce excisable goods, extract and sell minerals, work in the gambling business, or have switched to paying a single agricultural tax.

Restrictions on the number of employees, the value of fixed assets and the share in the authorized capital

He is not entitled to switch to a simplified system of organization and individual entrepreneurs if the average number of employees exceeds 100 people. The transfer ban also applies to companies and entrepreneurs whose residual value of fixed assets is more than 100 million rubles.

In addition, in the general case, it is impossible to apply the simplified tax system to enterprises if the share of participation in them of others legal entities more than 25 percent.

How to switch to USN

Organizations that do not belong to the above categories can switch to the simplified tax system if their income for the period from January to September did not exceed 45 million rubles multiplied by the current value of the deflator coefficient. Considering that the deflator coefficient for 2015 was equal to 1.147, then in order to switch to the “simplified system” from 2016, it was necessary that income for the first nine months of 2015 did not exceed 51,615 thousand rubles (45,000 thousand rubles x 1.147). The coefficient for 2016 is 1.329. Therefore, for the transition to the simplified tax system from January 1, 2017, the income limit from January to September is 59,805 thousand rubles. (45,000 thousand rubles × 1.329).

If this condition is met, notification must be submitted to tax office no later than December 31, and from January of the next year, the "simplified" can be applied.

Entrepreneurs who do not belong to the above categories can switch to the simplified tax system, regardless of the amount of income for the current year. To do this, they need to submit a notification to the tax office no later than December 31, and from January next year, the IP will be able to apply the simplified taxation system.

Newly established enterprises and newly registered individual entrepreneurs have the right to apply the simplified system from the date of registration with the tax office. To do this, you must submit a notification no later than 30 calendar days from the date of tax registration.

Violation of the deadline for filing an application for application of the simplified tax system deprives the company or entrepreneur of the right to apply the simplified system.

How long do you need to apply the "simplification"

A taxpayer who has switched to the simplified tax system must apply it until the end of the tax period, that is, until December 31 of the current year inclusive. Until that time, it is impossible to voluntarily abandon the simplified tax system. You can change the system of your own free will only from January 1 of the next year, which must be notified in writing to the tax office.

An early transition from the simplified system is possible only in cases where a company or entrepreneur has lost the right to a simplified system within a year. Then the refusal of this system is mandatory, that is, it does not depend on the desire of the taxpayer. This happens when income for a quarter, six months, nine months or a year exceeds 60 million rubles multiplied by the current value of the deflator coefficient (in 2016, the limit is 79,740 thousand rubles), or the criteria for the number of employees, the cost of basic funds or share in the authorized capital. In addition, the right to the simplified tax system is lost if the organization falls into the “forbidden” category in the middle of the year (for example, it opens a branch or starts producing excisable goods).

The termination of the use of "simplified" occurs from the beginning of the quarter in which the right to it is lost. This means that an enterprise or individual entrepreneur, starting from the first day of such a quarter, must recalculate taxes using a different system. Penalties and fines in this case are not charged. In addition, in case of loss of the right to a simplified system, the taxpayer must notify the tax inspectorate in writing of the transition to another taxation system within 15 calendar days after the end of the relevant period: quarter, six months, nine months or a year.

If the taxpayer ceased to engage in activities for which he applied the simplified system, then within 15 days he must notify his inspection about this.

Objects " STS income” and “STS income minus expenses”. Tax rates

A taxpayer who has switched to a simplified system must choose one of two objects of taxation. In fact, these are two ways to calculate a single tax. The first item is income. Those who choose it, sum up their income for a certain period and multiply by 6 percent. The resulting figure is the value of a single "simplified" tax. The second object of taxation is income reduced by the amount of expenses (“income minus expenses”). Here, the amount of tax is calculated as the difference between income and expenses multiplied by 15 percent.

The Tax Code of the Russian Federation gives the regions the right to establish a reduced tax rate depending on the category of the taxpayer. A rate reduction can be entered both for the “income” object and for the “income minus expenses” object. You can find out what preferential rates are accepted in your area by contacting your tax office.

You need to choose an object of taxation even before switching to the simplified tax system. Further, the selected object is applied throughout the calendar year. Then, starting from January 1 of the next year, you can change the object, having previously notified your tax office no later than December 31. Thus, you can move from one object to another no more than once a year. There is an exception here: the parties to a joint activity agreement or a property trust agreement are deprived of the right to choose, they can only use the “income minus expenses” object.

How to account for income and expenses

Taxable income under the simplified tax system is the proceeds from the main activity (sales income), as well as amounts received from other activities, for example, from renting out property (non-operating income). The list of expenses is strictly limited. It includes all popular cost items, in particular, wage, the cost and repair of fixed assets, the purchase of goods for further sale, and so on. But at the same time, there is no such item as “other expenses” in the list. Therefore, the tax authorities during inspections are strict and cancel any costs that are not directly mentioned in the list. All income and expenses should be recorded in a special book, the form of which is approved by the Ministry of Finance.

Under the simplified system, the cash method of recognition of income and expenses is applied. In other words, income is generally recognized at the moment the money is received on the current account or at the cash desk, and expenses are recognized at the moment when the organization or individual entrepreneur has paid off the obligation to the supplier.

How to calculate a single "simplified" tax

It is necessary to determine the tax base (that is, the amount of income, or the difference between income and expenses) and multiply it by the appropriate tax rate. The tax base is calculated on an accrual basis from the beginning of the tax period, which corresponds to one calendar year. In other words, the base is determined during the period from January 1 to December 31 of the current year, then the calculation of the tax base starts from zero.

Taxpayers who have chosen the “income minus expenses” object must compare the amount of the single tax received with the so-called minimum tax. The latter is equal to one percent of income. If a single tax, calculated in the usual way, turned out to be less than the minimum, then the minimum tax must be transferred to the budget. In subsequent tax periods, the difference between the minimum and the “regular” tax can be taken into account as an expense. In addition, those for whom the object is “income minus expenses” can carry losses into the future.

When to transfer money to the budget

Not later than the 25th day of the month following the reporting period (quarter, six months and nine months), must be transferred to the budget advance payment. It is equal to the tax base for reporting period multiplied by the corresponding rate, minus advance payments for previous periods.

At the end of the tax period, it is necessary to transfer to the budget the total amount of a single "simplified" tax, and organizations and entrepreneurs have different payment deadlines. So, enterprises must transfer money no later than March 31 of the next year, and individual entrepreneurs - no later than April 30 of the next year. When transferring the final amount of tax, all advance payments made during the year should be taken into account.

In addition, taxpayers who have chosen the “income” object reduce advance payments and the final amount of tax on mandatory insurance premiums in the PFR, FSS and medical insurance, for voluntary insurance in case of temporary disability of employees, as well as for payments for sick leave workers. In this case, the advance payment or the final tax amount cannot be reduced by more than 50 percent. In addition to this, as of January 1, 2015, it is possible to reduce the tax by the full amount of the sales tax paid.

How to report under USN

You need to report on a single "simplified" tax once a year. Companies must submit a simplified tax return no later than March 31, and entrepreneurs no later than April 30 of the year following the expired tax period. Reporting based on the results of the quarter, six months and nine months is not provided.

Taxpayers who have lost the right to "simplification" must submit a declaration no later than the 25th day of the next month.

Companies and individual entrepreneurs who have ceased to engage in activities that fall under the "simplified" must submit a declaration no later than the 25th day of the next month.

Simplified system based on patent

This type of simplified tax system existed until December 31, 2012 inclusive and was intended for individual entrepreneurs. Starting from January 1, 2013, the patent "simplification" is cancelled.

Combination of simplified tax system and UTII

The taxpayer has the right to charge an "imputed" tax for some types of activity, and for others - a single tax under the simplified tax system. In this case, it is necessary to keep separate records of income and expenses related to each of the special modes.

Let's consider all the main changes and the procedure for working within the framework of the simplified tax system in the current year.

Tax and reporting period according to chapter 26.2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN"

The tax period under the simplified taxation system is one calendar year. There are also reporting periods following the results of which advance payments are transferred under the simplified tax system. This is 1 quarter, half year 9 months.

Chapter 26.2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN": tax rates

The tax rate for taxpayers who have chosen income as an object of taxation is 6 percent. At the same time, local authorities have the right to reduce the rate to 1 percent, and even less in Crimea and Sevastopol (clause 1, article 346.20 of the Tax Code).

The right to reduce the tax rate to a minimum was used not in all subjects.

Regional authorities have the right to provide tax holidays. That is, to make a tax rate of 0 percent for them. Those merchants who have registered for the first time and operate in certain areas are entitled to take advantage of this benefit. For example, if they are engaged in production, the social sphere, science, or provide household services to the population.

If you pay tax on the difference between income and expenses, then the tax rate will be 15 percent. The head of the Tax Code "USN" provides that the regional authorities also have the right to lower it.

Calculation of tax according to chapter 26.2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN"

Calculate the single tax (advance payments) in accordance with the chapter "Simplified taxation system" of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation on an accrual basis from the beginning of the year using the formula:

• if you pay STS tax on income:

• if you pay tax on the difference between income and expenses

Income according to the head of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN"

Determine the income received for the year (reporting period) according to the rules of articles 346.15 and 346.17 of the chapter "Simplified taxation system" (Tax Code, chapter 26.2).

When using the simplified taxation system, tax is levied on proceeds from the sale of finished products, the sale of goods, works or services, as well as property rights. Article 249 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation contains a list of such income. Many non-operating incomes are also taxed. Their composition is in article 250 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. This is established by paragraph 1 of Article 346.15, paragraph 1 of Article 248 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.

Those receipts that do not fall under the above categories are not taxed. In addition to this, there are types of income exempt from taxation on simplified taxation.

The income from sales, from which the simplified tax system is calculated, includes the proceeds from the sale:

• products (works, services) produced by the organization;
• goods purchased for resale, as well as other types of own property (for example, fixed assets, intangible assets, materials, etc.);
• property rights.

Such rules are provided for by the chapter of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "Simplified taxation system" (clause 1 of article 346.15).

Also include in income from sales advances received on account of the forthcoming supply of goods (works, services). The fact is that with simplification, income is calculated on a cash basis. And the received advances may not include in the base only those companies that use the accrual method (clause 1 of article 346.15, subclause 1 of clause 1 of article 251 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).

Expenses under the head of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN"

The list of expenses for which income is reduced when calculating the simplified tax system is in article 346.16 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. It is exhaustive. That is, the organization is not entitled to take into account those costs that are not in this list. But there are exceptions to this rule. The Ministry of Finance allows reflecting some types of expenses that are not named in this list.

For example, it is permissible to take into account the costs of both a full-time accountant and an external one. The company is required to keep accounting records. The head has the right to hire an accountant or entrust the preparation of reports to another organization or an individual (part 3 of article 7 of Federal Law No. 402-FZ of 06.12.11).

If you hire a freelance accountant, take into account all the costs of his services: accounting, consulting, etc. Keep the contract and acts of work performed (subclause 15, clause 1, article 346.16 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).

You also have the right to take into account the cost of air conditioning. Although they are not named in the list, the Ministry of Finance believes that they are justified. The organization is obliged to ensure normal working conditions for employees in the premises (Article 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, clause 6.10 SanPiN 2.2.4.548-96, approved by the Resolution of the State Committee for Sanitary and Epidemiological Supervision of the Russian Federation dated 01.10.96 No. 21). And air conditioners are part of such conditions.

The costs for the purchase and repair of air conditioners can be taken into account as material (subclause 5, clause 1, article 346.16, clause 6, clause 1, article 254 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).

Tax deduction under the head of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "USN"

Ch. 26.2 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation "Simplified taxation system" provides that payers of the simplified taxation tax on income can reduce its size (or advance payment for the reporting period) by the amount tax deduction. The deduction consists of 3 components.

1. Insurance premiums (within the amount accrued) transferred for the period for which the single tax or advance payment is accrued. This amount may include contributions for previous periods (for example, for 2019), but funds transferred to the fund in the reporting period (for example, in 2010).

2. Contributions for personal insurance to employees in case of their illness. This type of cost is taken into account as a deduction only if insurance contracts are concluded with organizations that have the appropriate licenses. And insurance payments do not exceed the amount of temporary disability benefits calculated under Article 7 of the Law of December 29, 2006 No 255-FZ.

3. Hospital benefits for the first three days of disability in the part not covered by insurance payments under contracts, personal insurance. This procedure is provided for by clause 3.1 of Article 346.21 of the Tax Code and is explained in the letters of the Ministry of Finance dated February 1, 2016 No 03-11-06 / 2/4597, dated December 29, 2012 No 03-11-09 / 99.

Do not reduce the hospital allowance by the calculated personal income tax (letter of the Ministry of Finance dated 04/11/2013 No 03-11-06/2/12039). Supplements to the sickness benefit up to the actual average earnings of the employee are not taken into account. These amounts are not benefits (Article 7 of the Law of December 29, 2006 No 255-FZ).

As a general rule, the amount of the deduction cannot exceed 50 percent of the STS tax (advance payment).

- contributions for compulsory social insurance and for insurance against accidents and occupational diseases paid in the period from January 1 to March 31 of the current year for the first quarter of the current year and for December of the previous year (within the amounts reflected in the reporting on insurance premiums), in size 4100 Ᵽ (2700 Ᵽ + 1400 Ᵽ);
- contributions for voluntary insurance of employees in case of temporary disability in the amount of 6000 Ᵽ;
- hospital benefits to employees for the first three days of incapacity for work in the amount of the amounts actually paid (without reduction for personal income tax) - 2500 Ᵽ

The total amount of expenses that can be claimed for deduction for the first quarter is 28,600 Ᵽ (16,000 Ᵽ + 4,100 Ᵽ + 6,000 Ᵽ + 2,500 Ᵽ). It exceeds the deduction limit (28,600Ᵽ > 24,000Ᵽ). Therefore, the accountant of Alfa accrued an advance payment for the first quarter in the amount of 24,000 Ᵽ

In addition to the three types of deduction that are provided for all payers of a single payment, organizations and entrepreneurs involved in trade can reduce it by a trade fee. What is needed for this?

First, the organization or entrepreneur must be registered as a trade tax payer. If the payer transfers the sales tax not on the notice of registration, but at the request of the inspection, it is prohibited to use the deduction.

Secondly, the trading fee must be paid to the budget of the same region where the payment under the special regime is credited. Mainly, this requirement applies to organizations and entrepreneurs who are engaged in trade not where they are registered at their location (place of residence).

For example, an entrepreneur who is registered in the Moscow region and trades in Moscow will not be able to reduce the payment by the amount of the trading fee. After all, the trading fee is fully credited to the budget of Moscow (clause 3, article 56 of the BC), and a single USN payment- to the budget of the Moscow region (clause 6 of article 346.21 of the Tax Code, clause 2 of article 56 of the BC).

Thirdly, the sales tax must be paid to the regional budget exactly in the period for which the STS payment is charged. Sales tax paid at the end of this period can only be deducted in the next period. For example, a sales tax paid in January 2019 following the results of the 4th quarter of 2018 will reduce its amount for 2019. It cannot be accepted for 2018.

Fourthly, the simplified tax system payment must be determined separately:

• for trading activities in respect of which the organization (entrepreneur) pays a trading fee;
• for other types of business activities for which the fee is not paid.

The actually paid trading fee reduces only the first amount. That is, the part of the payment that is accrued from income from trading activities. Therefore, if you are engaged in several types of business activities, you should keep separate records of income from activities subject to sales tax and income from other activities. This is confirmed by the letters of the Ministry of Finance dated 12/18/2015 No 03-11-09/78212 (sent to inspections by letter of the Federal Tax Service dated 02/20/2016 No SD-4-3/2833) and dated 07/23/2015 No 03-11-09/42494.

Maintain separate accounting accounting program or issue accounting certificates

Calculation of the simplified tax system - tax

The amount of a single tax (advance payment), accrued with deductions, the organization must transfer to the budget for the entire tax (reporting) period. At the same time, it can be reduced by the amount of advance payments accrued based on the results of previous reporting periods. In this regard, at the end of the year (the next reporting period), the organization may have the payment amount not for additional payment, but for reduction. For example, this is possible if the level of income by the end of the year decreases, and the amount of deductions increases.

Changes in the USN

The income limit for 9 months, which allows you to switch to a special regime, in 2019 is 112.5 million. This indicator is not adjusted for the deflator coefficient. An increased limit on the value of fixed assets is also applied, based on which the company could switch to this special regime. If earlier it was 100 million Ᵽ, now this figure is 150 million.
