Subject The article focuses on issues of financial and tax accounting for transfer of a fixed asset as a payout to a stakeholder when he/she withdraws from their company. In such circumstances, accounting, aspects of tax and corporate laws get intertwined, causing ambiguity and difficulties understanding and accounting for certain aspects. Taxation appears to be the most challenging task, which is quite understandable due to the complexity of tax laws, which often leads to collisions.
Objectives The research outlines correct approaches to accounting for transfers of fixed assets to stakeholders of limited liability companies, when they leave them.
Methods The study relies upon general scientific methods of research. Based on the systems approach and logic generalization, I systematized priority viewpoints on legal relations arising from financial and tax accounting for transfers of fixed assets to stakeholders, when they leave the company. I conducted the analysis to identify the specifics of tax laws in such circumstances. Synthesizing the outcome and modeling the situation, I formulated my methodological guidelines for enforcement of accounting and tax laws.
Results Some rules for financial and tax accounting should be amended to make taxation treatment logic and exclude those provisions which imply double taxation and cause errors in assessment of tax base or liabilities.
Conclusions and Relevance There exist such business transactions that are beyond tax laws. Hence, there should be legislative initiatives for introducing special clauses governing the tax treatment of such transactions, concurrently with amendments to the existing laws in order to avoid collisions. The findings will be useful to accountants, tax advisers, auditors, researchers of tax matters and law-makers so as to initiate amendments to regulatory documents.
