01Financial accounting and transaction evidence
Follow a transaction from its evidence to the journal, ledger and financial statements. A payment is not necessarily an expense of the current period: it may acquire an asset, settle a liability or relate to a future period. Likewise, revenue recognition and receipt of cash need not occur simultaneously. Identify the substance and timing before selecting an account.
216 words, about 1 min02Earned income, withholding and settlement
Determine what a payment represents before calculating a withholding amount. Employment remuneration, business income, pension income and retirement income can have different treatment. A payment described informally as an allowance is not automatically exempt, and a family relationship does not by itself establish eligibility for a deduction. The applicable Korean provision, period, documents and facts control the result.
215 words, about 1 min03Value-added tax, invoices and transaction classification
Follow the transaction from its substance and place in the business to the applicable Korean VAT treatment. Distinguish taxable supplies, zero-rated supplies, exempt supplies and transactions outside the relevant supply definition. Zero rating and exemption can have different consequences for input tax, so they are not interchangeable merely because the seller charges no positive output tax. A VAT calculation separates the supply value from the tax itself.
