When filling out the Budget section, an error appears that the payroll has exceeded 60%. It is not more than 60% of the requested amount for the entire period. Why does it happen?
According to the bidding documentation, the condition not to exceed the payroll fund of 60% of the requested amount applies to each year of sale separately. For example, the salary fund for 2022 should not exceed 60% of the total requested amount for 2022. And this is applicable for each subsequent year of implementation.
Do Taxes and other obligatory payments to the budget include the mandatory pension contribution and individual income tax that are paid from employee salaries?
No. When indicating salaries, these payments should already be taken into account. In the table “Consolidated estimated calculation of expenses for the requested project amount” in the line “Taxes and other obligatory payments to the budget”, as well as in the table of the same name, only 4 types of taxes are paid which are NOT paid from the employee’s salary.
Why is the table entitled “Taxes and other obligatory payments to the budget” the compulsory pension contributions of the employer is included if the pension contributions are already taken into account in the salary?
Starting from 2020, in addition to compulsory pension contributions, which are deducted in the amount of 10% of employee income, employers will additionally pay pension contributions in the amount of 5% at their own expense. Since the budget is filled for 2020-2022, the introduction of this measure is provided in the table.
