MODULE 5: EXCISE TAXES

OVERVIEW:

Merchants or companies are subject to business taxes on their sales transactions


or business transactions. The Government imposed business taxes under the provision of the
Tax Code of the Philippines namely: Other Percentage Tax, Value Added Tax, Excise Tax and
Documentary Tax. We have already discussed the OPT and VAT in the previous modules, and
now, we will discuss the Excise tax.

Excise taxes are internal taxes that are levied on the sale of specific goods and services,
such as alcohol, fuel and tobacco. An excise tax is an indirect tax that is not paid by the
customers directly — instead, the excise tax is imposed on the supplier or the producer, who
then includes it in the product price.

Excise taxes are imposed by the federal, state, and local governments. The taxes can
either be applied as a percentage of the total cost of a product or service or as a fixed amount.
For example, the excise tax on a vehicle is a percentage of the total cost while the excise tax on
a tobacco and gasoline is a fixed amount.
