has reached an agreement with the
European Commission for the introduction
of a 12 % corporate rate on trading

seen as quite a low percentage but it is
necessary to attract foreign investment
in this country.

LC 2007 Q5 SOLUTION
Form P21
Form P21 is known as a balancing statement. All PAYE taxpayers are entitled to request a
Form P21 annually from the Inspector of Taxes. It is an end of year summary of an
employees tax situation and contains all details of income, allowances and the calculations of
the tax payable at the various rates for the year. Form P21 will indicate if an employee has
overpaid or unpaid tax for the year. If an employee has overpaid tax, the Inspector of Taxes
will issue a tax refund. If an employee has underpaid tax, the Inspector of Taxes will issue a
tax demand.
Form P60
A P60 is issued by an employer to each of his/her employees at the end of each tax year. It is
a certificate which shows details of gross pay, and tax and PRSI deductions made during
the year. After 31 December each year, all PAYE taxpayers receive from their employers
a Form P60 which has two parts. A PAYE taxpayer has a statutory right to this document
and it is used as proof of income for various purposes, e.g. education grants.
