BIR Ruling No. 113-83

June 24, 1983 BIR RULING NO. 113-83 Gentlemen : This refers to your letter dated January 20, 1983 requesting exemption from the withholding provisions of Republic Act No. 1051, as implemented by Revenue Regulations No. 16-77 dated October 11, 1977 on your sales of manufactured patis and soy sauce to the KADIWA. In reply, please be informed that your sales of the aforesaid manufactured food products to the KADIWA are not subject to the withholding provisions of Republic Act No. 1051, as implemented by Revenue Regulations No. 16-77 since the sales tax due thereon cannot be fixed, determined and ascertained at the time of payment. This is so, because under Presidential Decree No. 1358, the method of computing the sales tax due on manufactured products has been changed from the cost, deduction method to tax deduction method whereby under the latter, the tax on the raw materials deducted from the sales tax due on the manufactures products, can be determined only after the manufacturer files his quarterly return for percentage tax purposes. cdtech Very truly yours, (SGD.)
