Ethics
Tax Avoidance vs Tax Evasion
- Tax avoidance is generally the legal exploitation of the tax regime to one's own
advantage, to attempt to reduce the amount of tax that is payable by means that are
within the law whilst making a full disclosure of the material information to the tax
authorities.
Examples of tax avoidance;
(i) using tax deductions
(ii) changing one's business structure through incorporation or
(iii) establishing an offshore company in a tax haven.
- Tax evasion is the general term for efforts by individuals, firms, trusts and other
entities to evade the payment of taxes by illegal means.
- Tax evasion usually entails taxpayers deliberately misrepresenting or concealing
the true state of their affairs to the tax authorities to reduce their tax liability,
and includes, in particular, dishonest tax reporting.
Examples of tax evasion;
(i) under declaring income, profits or gains; or
(ii) overstating deductions.

the intension of the law.

liability.
Falsifying income tax return

Threats which may arise;

degree of judgment necessary in applying it

- Assisting clients with their tax reporting obligations
by drafting and compiling information, including the
amount of tax due required to be submitted to the
applicable tax authorities
- Advising on the tax return treatment of past
transactions and responding on behalf of the audit
client to the tax authorities’ requests for additional
information and analysis (for example, providing
explanations of and technical support for the
approach being taken
All Audit Clients
Materiality of amounts should be considered. Threats
which may arise;
- Advocacy Threat
- Self Review Threat
Audit Clients that are Not Public Interest Entities

in providing the service
Audit Clients that are Public Interest Entities

calculations of current and deferred tax liabilities (or
assets), if it is material.
