*From the information provided in the problem, the amount of P400,000 as claim
against exclusive property should pertain to the unpaid mortgage on the land
inherited. Therefore, the present decedent paid P100,000 on the original amount of
the mortgage (P500,000). This should be taken into consideration in computing the
vanishing deduction.
** LEGACY AGAINST EXCLUSIVE PROPERTIES
Legacy means bequest or inheritance of personal properties. The deductible
legacy/devised (bequests) under the tax code are:

15 | Tr a n s fe r & B u s i n es s Ta xa ti o n (3 r d
E d i ti o n ) b y Ta b a g a n d G a rc i a
Transfer for public use (Rule: Include both in the Gross Estate as well as in
the Deductions from the Gross Estate) ; and
Bequests to charitable institutions wherein not more than 30% of the bequest
was used for administrative purposes (Rule: Same as transfer for public use)

From the information provided above, the problem was silent as to the type of the
legacy. In case of doubt, the two types of transfers enumerated above should not be
assumed. Therefore, the item should be treated as a simple legacy or transfer in
contemplation of death which is added only in the gross estate.

*The question is gross gifts, hence, disregard the mortgage.


**Sale of Land #1 is a transfer with insufficient consideration.
However, unlike in Estate Taxation, Transfer with insufficient
consideration for donors tax purposes is not taxable if the property
donated is a real property classified as capital asset subject to capital
gains tax.

*** Sale of Land # 2 is considered bonafide or valid sale.


****Sale of Land #3 is a transfer with insufficient consideration.
Nonetheless, the sale is subject to donors tax because the property
was not subjected to capital gains tax. Capital gains tax on real
properties are applicable only on sale of real properties classified as
capital assets located in the Philippines.

EXCLUDED FROM GPB: RR15-2003 provides that demurrage fees, detention


fees, and other charges relating to inbound and outbound cargoes are
considered as income derived from sources within the Philippines subject to
regular tax rates.

2) Income tax due = P545,000

3) Business tax due = 3% CCT on cargo operations originating in the Philippines


= 3% x P6M = P180,000

4) Income tax due = P3,225,000


An offline carrier is not an international carrier. Assume therefore that the
income provided were in the nature of commission income from
international carriers.
***An offline carrier may be a domestic or resident foreign corporation.
Since the original problem pertains to an international carrier (resident
foreign corporation), the offline carrier provided in the problem should be
treated as a resident foreign corporation taxable only on its income from
sources within the Philippines.

2. P0. Not subject to business tax as well as income tax (CGT). The
transaction resulted to a loss amounting to P75,000, hence, not subject to
CGT.
