Book Description
The IBFD International Tax Glossary is currently in its third, revised edition. Since the first edition was published on the occasion of the IBFD's 50th anniversary in 1988, this definitive & authoritative desk reference has been continuously expanded & updated to reflect the changes taking place in international tax & investment. The International Tax Glossary provides the broadest possible coverage of the language of taxation. The first part of this book gives clear, concise definitions in English of more than 2,000 tax terms. The second part gives an alphabetical listing of 400 English terms from the first part of the book with their French, German & Spanish equivalents. Naturally, the International Tax Glossary provides accurate descriptions of all those traditional terms that confuse those new to or unfamiliar with tax. However, it also looks at the more exotic terms that leave even those with many years of experience in the profession guessing about their exact meaning, such as: * Bed & Breakfasting, the practice of selling shares late in the day & repurchasing them the next day in order to establish a loss or to offset a capital gain * Wash Sale, a tax avoidance device whereby a person claims a loss on the sale of securities but has in fact acquired (or contracted to do so) substantially similar or identical securities * Olim, an Israeli term for new immigrants who are given various tax benefits * Rort, an Australian term denoting the deliberate & blatant exploitation of an opportunity in an improper, if not technically illegal, manner * Alcabala, an old Spanish turnover tax levied on the sales price or exchange value of tangible property The listing of terms with their subscriptions is extensively cross-referenced indicating similar or related terms as well as contrasting terms.
