A. SHIFTING
process by which tax burden is transferred from statutory taxpayer to another
without violating the law .
One way of passing the burden of the tax from one person to other (Blacks Law Dictionary
,supra ). For Example, taxes paid by the manufacturer may be shifted to the consumer by
adding the amount of the tax paid to the price of the product.
Kinds of Shifting
1. Forward shifting- when burden of tax is transferred from a factor of
production through the factors of distribution until it finally settles on the
ultimate purchaser or consumer
2. Backward shifting when the burden is transferred from consumer
through factors of distribution to the factors of production;
3. Onward shifting- when the tax is shifted 2 or more times either
forward or backward.
B. CAPITALIZATION
the reduction in the price of the taxed object equal
to the capitalized value of the future taxes which
the purchaser expects to be called upon to pay .
This refers to the reduction in the price of the taxed
object to the capitalize value of future taxes which
the purchaser expects too be called upon to pay. An
example as the reduction made by the seller on the
price of the Real Estate, in anticipation of the future
tax to be shouldered by the future buyer.
C. TRANSFORMATION
the manufacturer or producer upon whom the tax has
been imposed, fearing the loss of his market if he
should add the tax to the price, pays the tax and
endeavors to recoup himself by improving his process
of production thereby turning out his units at a lower
cost.
Occurs when the manufacturer or the producer upon
whom the tax has been imposed pays the tax and
endeavor to recoup himself/herself by improving
his/her process of production (De Leon, 1991).
