Taxation
The module is designed to provide students with the rationale and the functions of the tax system in Singapore. The module then considers the common types of taxes that an accountant in Singapore would need to be familiar with, such as income tax from business activity (whether through a corporate entity or as a sole proprietor), employment, investments and the goods and services tax liability of businesses. Having covered the core areas of the basic taxes, the student should be able to compute the tax liabilities for companies and sole proprietors, work out the tax liabilities for individuals as well as have a grasp of the application and mechanics of the Goods and Services Tax system, be able to explain the basis of their calculations, apply simple tax planning techniques for individuals and companies. Students should also be familiar with compliance issues for the taxes covered under the module. These issues include time-bars and penalties for non-compliance.
