The document describes three types of income tax systems: a global tax system that taxes all incomes at the same rate, a schedular tax system that applies different tax rates to different types of income, and a semi-schedular/semi-global system that lumps ordinary income and passive income together and subjects the taxable income after deductions to tax rules. The Philippines uses a semi-schedular/semi-global system.

1. Global Tax System – all incomes regardless of classification
2. Schedular Tax System – different types of income are subject to different sets of income tax rates (graduated or flat). The basis may be gross income (without deductions) or net income (gross income less allowable deductions). 3. Semi-Schedular or Semi-Global Tax System – regular or ordinary income including passive income and capital gain not subjected to final ta are lumped or added together and after deducting allowable deductions, the taxable income is subjected to tax in accordance with tax rules.
Note: Philippines adopts the Semi-Schedular or Semi-Global System.
