The course will develop the students’ ability to independently solve tax law problems for both limited companies as well as other business entities and employees.After completing the course, students are expected to:
- have acquired basic knowledge of Swedish tax legislation and case law and understand the significance of its content.
- be able to analyse the tax law problems that arise in a given situation based on given conditions and within a given time frame.
- be able to present solutions that lead to a correct tax cost for a company.
Content
The main emphasis of the course is on the study of important provisions in the Swedish tax legislation. Corporate taxation is the main focus of the course. To some extent, attention is paid to case law. Indirect taxation, social security contributions, international taxation, the taxation procedure and the rules for paying taxes, as well as tax law provisions, are dealt with in a concise manner.An introductory section deals with the various concepts and definitions of tax law. Thereafter, the income laws - employment, capital and business - are reviewed, whereby basic characteristics for each of the income laws are studied. Furthermore, special taxation issues are raised for review and analysis, such as the small business taxation rules, the group taxation rules, VAT and international tax law.
Teacher-led teaching is conducted in the form of lectures and seminars. The seminars are compulsory and the attendance requirement is specified in the study guide. In addition to this, it is mandatory to participate in so-called base group work. Base group work refers to a student group jointly preparing for each seminar. The base group is the same throughout the course. Before the base group preparations, all members must have prepared all assignments for the seminar. Each individual base group and base group member must be prepared to present all seminar assignments during each seminar. If a group or individual student is found to be unprepared, the attendance is not approved.
Participation during the seminar activities is an important step in assimilating the content of the course and a correct method for applying legal rules to concrete problems.
To a large extent, the teaching is structured with self-study based on problem-based exercise material and with access to "consulting" teachers.
