Manufacturing tax reduction 3%

Value-added tax is currently the largest tax category in China, and it is one of the main sources of taxation in China, and it is also the focus of tax reduction. In this government work report, Premier Li Keqiang proposed to reduce the current 16% tax rate in industries such as manufacturing to 13%.

16% of this tax rate taxable items include raw materials, equipment, etc. Lowering this tax rate can produce greater tax cuts. Obviously, manufacturing industries, including packaging and printing companies, benefit the most, not only to reduce financial pressure, Increasing corporate profit margins can also boost their production enthusiasm.

Jiang Weidong, deputy of the National People's Congress and chairman of Shandong Wuzheng Group Co., Ltd., said that if a company has annual sales of 10 billion yuan (excluding tax) and purchases of 8 billion yuan (excluding tax), the input sales are applicable to the 16% tax rate. Calculation.

Before the reform, the annual value-added tax should be paid: 100×16%-80×16%=3.2 (100 million yuan). After the reform, the annual value-added tax shall be paid: 100×13%-80×13%=2.6 (100 million yuan). In this way, companies can pay less than 0.6 billion yuan a year.

Environmental protection requirements

There is no doubt that environmental protection is still a hot topic in the two sessions this year. From the previous "strike the pollution prevention and control battle" to this year, "strengthen pollution prevention and ecological construction, and vigorously promote green development", the government work report puts forward higher requirements for environmental protection.

Among them, Wan Jie, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Chairman of Yachang Culture (Group) Co., Ltd., suggested in the "Proposal on Further Implementing Environmental Information Disclosure of Key Polluting Units" and "Proposal on Issuing Information on Water Environment Quality as Quickly as Possible":

To accelerate the development and application of biodegradable materials.

It can be said that the greening of the industry requires the full participation of the government, enterprises, citizens and other participants. It is necessary to link the upstream and downstream industry chains to jointly promote the reduction and recyclability of packaging, so as to build a green chain of society. Loop sharing mechanism.
