Gabital 24: Taxes (Really wanted to post this on Halloween, too><)

Taxes are compulsory payments levied on businesses and individuals by the state to finance its functions.

Disclaimer alert: Translator person is still very sick at the moment, so quality may vary. Will come back to this strip later to check for improvements, suggested or otherwise^^

That's interesting. In my country, small earners (like these goblins) don't have to carry a 'corporate' label, so their operating profits and wages or mostly tied together and the tax is significantly reduced. Only businesses with gross profits of over a million per year need to register as a cooperation. I kind of assumed it's like that in most countries but maybe we are the outliers.

Gabriel Meilikhov, If you are referring to CIP, that is mostly true - at least as far as I know. But even as a small business you have to calculate VAT and you are liable for Income Tax. Both taxes are mandatory items in your annual tax declaration.

Gabriel Meilikhov, Small businesses are certainly a modern thing, and we do have various levels of such entities in Russia as well. However, I'm assuming author went with the "default" corporation structure here due to it being easier and the setting (probably) not having advanced to self-employed businesses and the like yet.

Although it's worth noting that should the author have gone the other route, Gabi is still at a level of having an employee other than herself, which already adds other payments - but considering her approach to running business, she would've gone for nothing less than a cooperative with Falke anyway, which limits their business structure considerably...
