FAC which the CIR failed to establish, the use of the arms length interest from
the aforesaid advances and the gain of FDC from the exchange with FAI and
FLI is correct. The adoption of the arms length bargaining standard as the
ultimate test for determining the correct gross income is only a proof that the
taxing authority is given much trust and respect when it comes to interpreting
tax laws, under the law such government agencies are given such power to
prescribe their own rules and procedures in order to maximize its inherent
power to interpret and rule. The application of the arms length provides a
method of re-distribution income and expense of the taxpayer under common
control, in order to harmonize the seemingly discrepancies between a revenue
regulation and the case , again The purpose of sec 50 of the NIRC according to
sec 179 of rev regulation no.2 is to place a controlled tax payer on a partly
uncontrolled tax payer and through this determining the standards of a
uncontrolled tax payer, being experts in the field of taxation the CIR has done
its job by using every necessary tool in interpreting tax laws. The CIR has
explained the process by defining such terms as uncontrolled taxpayer which
includes any kind of control whether legally enforceable or not, and however
exercisable or exercise, in order to improve the knowledge of the public
regarding how the agency computes their taxes. We must be reminded that in
terms of inter-company loans or advances the determining factor is the control
and not only its form or mode of exercise, the commissioners authority to
determine extends to any case of conduct of the tax payers affair or whether
he has been conducting an uncontrolled taxpayer through the arms length
method.
