Why is this necessary?
According to Russian legislation, all taxpayers are required to pay fiscal fees to the state budget on time and in full.
Otherwise, the company or individual entrepreneur will be punished with rubles: fines and penalties. And especially large tax crimes face criminal liability. To avoid problems, tax authorities strongly recommend systematically monitoring the current state of mutual settlements with the budget. Officials remind that even a minor error in a payment order can lead to disastrous consequences.
For example, the budget classification code in the payment slip is incorrectly indicated, and the funds will not reach their intended destination. Consequently, the tax will not be considered paid, and inspectors will apply penalties. Let us remind you that the punishment for late payment of obligations is not only fines. Representatives of the Federal Tax Service have the right:
- independently write off money from the taxpayer’s current account;
- freeze the company's current accounts;
- suspend the activities of an organization or entrepreneur;
- initiate legal proceedings.
Systematic control of mutual settlements will help avoid such consequences. Carrying out a check is quite simple: just submit an application for reconciliation with the tax office at the nearest territorial branch of the Federal Tax Service. But there are other ways.
Accounting balance
The account balance will be the indicator under consideration. The difference between debit and credit will be the balance of the following types:
- Debit balance . Formed in a situation where the debit is greater than the credit. Displayed in the balance sheet asset.
- Credit balance . Formed in a situation where credit exceeds debit. Records the status of the sources through which funds are received. Displayed on the passive.
The difference between debit and credit (that is, between income and expense) can be zero. In this case, the account will be closed. In some cases, accounting has accounts that have both debit and credit balances.
When considering accounting for the reporting period, the following can be noted:
- Opening balance . Another name for it is incoming. This is the account balance. Calculated at the beginning of the reporting time. The calculation is made based on those transactions that were performed by the enterprise before the time in question.
- Debit and credit turnover . For calculations, only those operations that were performed at the time in question are taken.
- Balance for the period . It represents the total result of the enterprise’s actions during the reporting period.
- Closing balance . The second name is outgoing. Represents the balance available in accounts at the end of the month or other reporting time.
The reflection of the balance depends on its type. Calculations must be made regularly. This is important for tracking dynamics.
The rules for reconciliation with the Federal Tax Service have changed
The Federal Tax Service of Russia sent a letter dated 03/09/2021 No. AB-4-19/2990 to the territorial tax authorities, which updated the temporary procedure for joint reconciliation of calculations for taxes, fees, insurance premiums, penalties, and fines. The reconciliation procedure sent by letter dated April 16, 2020 No. AB-4-19/ [email protected] has become invalid.
According to the new rules, the largest taxpayers are no longer required to conduct quarterly reconciliations with the Federal Tax Service on their calculations. As before, the tax office must carry out a reconciliation at the taxpayer’s request. The new deadline is 5 days from the date of receipt of the application. It has been established that reconciliation of calculations is carried out by the tax authority without fail in the following cases:
- at the initiative of the taxpayer when submitting an application for a statement of reconciliation of calculations;
- in other cases established by legislation on taxes and fees.
The maximum period for reconciliation of calculations has not changed - it is 3 years.
Additionally, the letter contains the following forms:
- notifications of refusal to accept an application for reconciliation of settlements with the budget;
- notifications of refusal to reconcile settlements with the budget.
The rules were updated and the article became irrelevant. But we'll fix that soon.
