Schedule 5, Tax Calculation Supplementary – Corporations

Calculated Percentages

Even when there is no taxable income (e.g., a corporation with a non-capital loss), the gross revenue and salaries and wages determine the allocation percentage. This percentage is used to calculate the provincial capital tax liability.

Permanent Establishments

When you enter gross revenue or salaries and wages, an X will appear in the permanent establishment field for that province. Enter an X manually for provinces where the corporation has no activity but it maintains a permanent establishment.

Provincial Credit Forms

Several of the less common provincial credit forms are not included in the program. In these cases complete the provincial credit form manually and enter the credit amount in the input cell provided in Schedule 5. Attach the provincial credit schedule to your return.

Regulation

The following instructions are taken from the form.

  • Use this schedule if any of the following apply to your corporation during the tax year:
  • it had a permanent establishment in more than one jurisdiction (corporations that have no taxable income should only complete columns A, B, and D in Part 1)
  • it is claiming provincial or territorial tax credits or rebates (see Part 2)
  • it has to pay taxes, other than income tax, for Newfoundland and Labrador or Ontario (see Part 2)
