State regulated prices should be defined as market prices only in the cases, where the respective budget compensate the actual losses suffered by taxpayers in relation to the setting of such prices by providing respective subsidies and subventions. At the same time, taxpayers should be the recipients of the said funds (budget recipients).

In the case budgets compensate to the taxpayer the loss of earnings (the amount of the difference between the selling and the state regulated price), such subventions and subsidies should be included in the added value tax base in accordance with subparagraph 2 of item 1 of article 162 of the RF Tax Code.

The tax base of notaries should be defined similarly to the profit tax base and the composition of expenditures permitted for deduction should be defined similarly to the procedures applied to the definition of the composition of expenditures set for payers of the profit tax by the respective articles of Chapter 25 of the RF Tax Code. Since the discounted amounts of tariffs paid by the eligible categories of the payers of the stamp tax for notary operations have not been defined in Chapter 25 of the RF Tax Code, the amounts of such expenditures should not be included in the composition of expenditures made by notaries as concerns the single social tax.

In the case the law of the RF subject envisages that in the period from January 1 of 2006 till January of 2009 the issues of local importance in the newly established settlements should be resolved by the bodies of the municipal districts, in which such settlements are situated, the normative and legal acts of such districts should be applied to such settlements as concerns the land tax and the individual property tax. In the case there are no legal and normative acts adopted by municipal districts and town okrugs with respect to the enactment of the system of taxation in the form of the single tax on imputed incomes with respect to certain types of economic activities at the respective territories, prior to January 1 of 2007 there should be applied the provisions of the laws of the RF subject, in the territory of which such newly established settlements are situated, the respective regional types of economic activities, and values of the K2 coefficient.

The proceeds in the form of material gain got at the expense of economy on interest for the use of borrowed (credit) funds should be defined as such only in the case the taxpayer got such funds from organizations or individual entrepreneurs.

Long term interest free repayable loans for construction (purchase) of housing granted to families of forced migrants in accordance with law of the Russian Federation No. 4530-1 of February 19, 1993, should be financed at the expense of the funds of the federal budget earmarked for the implementation of the federal migration program, and not at the expense of any organization, therefore, the material gain got in the form of economy on interest should not be taxable as concerns the tax on incomes of individuals.

The presentation of the bill at the time of payment by the bill holder is not defined as an operation involving the sale or purchase of securities, and, therefore, the tax base of such operations should be defined under the general procedure.

In the course of repayment of an own bill by the bill issuer to the first bill holder there is paid a proceed amounting to the bill interest. The paid bill amount in this case should not be defined as proceeds, since the payment related to the amount of the bill is equal to the repayment of the amount of the debt registered by the bill. In the course of repayment of own discounted bill, the proceeds of the first bill holder should be defined as the amount of the respective discount. In the case the bill is interest free, the first bill holder does not derive any proceeds, and the bill issuer repaying own bill presented for payment should be free of the obligations as a tax agent.

As concerns the repayment of bills presented not by the first bill holder, the obligation of the calculation and declaration of proceeds in the form of interest or discount should be vested in the bill holder.

At the same time, in accordance with subparagraph 4 of item 1 of Article 228 of the RF Tax Code the individual receiving the bill related payment should make the tax declaration indicating the amount of the bill and the respective bill interest as proceeds, or, in the case of repayment of a discount bill, such taxpayer should indicate the total bill amount as the proceeds, and calculate the tax taking in the account the amount of the tax withheld by the tax agent in the course of the bill repayment.
