español term

Cuota integra / Cuota liquida / Cuota diferencial

español al inglés Negocios/Finanzas Contabilidad Tax
Hola!
Tengo un dilema en cuanto a estos tres términos, ya que haciendo una búsqueda me salen traducciones iguales para alguno de ellos.

Contexto: fórmula para calcular el importe a ingresar o devolver por el impuesto de sociedades:

Base imponible x tipo impositivo = cuota integra
- deducciones o bonificaciones = cuota liquida
- retenciones y pagos a cuenta = cuota diferencial (a ingresar o devolver)

Vaya lío de cuotas!

Gracias y un saludo.

see explanations below

I have worked extensively with Spanish lawyers to translate Spanish tax terms and believe that I can accurately say that there are no exact equivalents on either the the US or UK corporation tax forms.

For US tax forms see: http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/index.html?portlet=3

For UK tax forms see:
http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/businesses/tmacorporate-tax.shtml

Thus to avoid misinterpretations I would suggest the following descriptive renderings based on your definitions:

cuota íntegra = total tax due
cuota líquida = total tax due minus tax credits*
cuota diferencial = total tax due minus tax credits, taxes withheld and prepayments (amount payable or refundable)

*"deducciones sobre la cuota" are called "tax credits" in English

Hope you find this useful.

Thanks for your kind comment, Miguel. Actually I've come up with much of this in my legal English classes where the students (Spanish licenciados en derecho) take an intensive course in "tributario" and then want me to give them the English equivalents!

Gracias Richard
agree jackstraw : To simplify, I'm no tax expert but after years of tackling this problem the formula I use with my lawyer clients, and accepted by them: is: CI = gross [or total] tax liability; CL = net tax liability; CD = tax payable. Hope this helps.

Gross tax liability / Net tax liability / (UK) balancing allowance> receivable or charge > payable

Better late than never ! I do crave indulgence for missing this question in a very busy year.

Cuota liquida : next tax liability, West.

As I know to my HMRC cost, balancing assessments (UK balancing allowance + or charge -) is used in calculating perosnal income tax, as well as in capital (writing-down) allowances on business stock or plant & equipment.
Example sentence:

there are many misconceptions relating to Capital Allowances, and balancing charge.
