Q

JKL, Inc. is a corporation authorized to engage in the business of manufacturing ultra—high density microprocessor unit packages. After its registration on July 5, 2015, GHI, Inc. constructed buildings and purchased machineries and equipment. As of December 31, 2015, the total cost of the machineries and equipment amounted to P250,000,000.00. However, GHI, Inc. failed to commence operations. Its factory was temporarily closed effective December 15, 2019 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. With the worsening situation, the company plans to sell its machineries and equipment to JKL Integrated for P300,000,000.00 by October 30, 2020. Thereafter, GHI,Inc. will be dissolved effective November 30, 2020. May the machineries and equipment be deemed a capital asset? If yes, what is the applicable tax rate?

A

Yes, the machineries and equipment are capital assets. However, NIRC provides that the capital gains tax of 6% applies only to sale of land/buildings.

Although classified as CA, it is subject to RCIT (MCIT if 5 years after operation + if MCIT higher than RCIT)

SMI-ED Phil Case SC ruled that provision on CGT on individuals [and] corporation differs

individuals: real property
corp: sale of land/bldgs.

The machineries & equipment are CA because the corp failed to commence its business so it did not form part of the stocks in trade nor was it subject to depreciation
