The tax imposed under the GloBE Rules is a top-up tax calculated and applied at a jurisdictional level. The GloBE rules use a standardized base and definition of covered taxes to identify those jurisdictions where an MNE is subject to an effective tax rate below 15%. It then imposes a coordinated tax charge that brings the MNE effective tax rate on that income up to the minimum rate (after taking into account a substance-based carve-out).
Pillar Two Top-Up Tax Excel Sample Calculation
We have prepared a sample (excel) calculation based on our understanding of the Pillar Two Model, also referred to as GloBE Rules. The calculation covers the core flow of the Top-Up Tax Calculation.
Download below the free Pillar Two Sample Calculation:
Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two)
Top-Up Tax Sample Calculation for one single constituent entity (CE)
The calculation includes the:
- Determination of GloBE Income (or Loss)
- Adjusted Covered Taxes
- Calculation of the GloBE Effective Tax Rate
- Top-Up Tax Rate; and
- Top-Up Tax Amount
Our sample does not deal with general thresholds, allocations, exclusions, elections, transitional rules, GloBE loss carry forward, Top-Up tax credits, etc. The article numbers refer to the articles of the GloBE Rules.
