Liberia Tax Advisory and Representation
We offer Tax Advisory and Compliance Services, through our Taxation service line. At McJames & Francis, we provide representation services for our clients to the LRA, and other taxing jurisdictions, if necessary. Although a taxpayer may either represent him/herself, which is risky, it is important to have someone else who have the relevant credentials to do the representation. The Tax advisory service is to support our individual and business clients to be
tax complaint and avoid unnecessary tax liability and/or legal issues. This includes withholding taxes, business income taxes compliance issues, support payroll taxes, municipal tax issue, regulatory payments, goods and services tax, transfer pricing challenges, representations, etc.

Tax Health Check/Statutory Review
We implement Tax health check services to support our clients identify risk
issues. This is a systematic and methodological review of financial transactions
to help us determine the level of tax exposure facing the organization. This
approach allows us to identify gaps, which are shared with the client for
resolution with the Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA).

Concession Interest Taxing
Concession contracts in Liberia are in excess of $17 billion United stated
dollars, covering mining, oil exploration and agriculture activities. They are
granted to corporations with a capital capacity not less than ten million United
States Dollars, through a competitive bidding system. After winning the bid
and signing a contract, however, some qualified holders of the concession elect
to carry on various related party sale of their interest, that may result in complex
tax issues that the regular accountant at the entity level may not have the skills
to adequately address. At McJames and Francis, we support clients become tax
compliant when they sign up for our tax services. Other areas include:
Beneficial Ownership Disclosure and Concession Contract Matrix.

Risk of Losing Business

Beyond complying with the law, business entities failing to keep accurate record and documentation on business transactions, may lose revenue, income that is not record, unknowingly incur expenses and is more than very likely, operating very inefficiently. As the owner/leader you cannot successfully manage a business without proper accounting systems to track income coming in, or going out, payments on loans, operating and administrative costs and operational changes. Running your business/activity successfully requires the ability to perform financial analyses – that is, accurately measuring business growth, profitability, changes in operations and cash flows, as well as to reasonably estimate your business/interest’s financial condition (and ability to continue to exist).

To make smart business decisions, business owner/leaders need to have appropriate accounting systems in place providing true pictures of their businesses’ performance. Only then, can Management effectively answer the various questions they are sure to pose.

Good accounting information systems help management answer such questions as:

  • What assets do we have??
    • How much did we spend
    • Where did our money come from and how much from various sources?
    • Did we make a profit last year?
    • Can we buy that computer server or should we lease it?
    • Are any of the goods we have selling at a loss?
    • What were cash inflows and outflows?
    • Can we safely increase our dividends to stockholders?
  • How much do we owe?
    •  And What did we spend it on?
    • Were the sales higher this year or last year?
    • How much excess-idle cash do we have available?
    • What is the cost of leasing?
    • Is the rate of return on net assets increasing?
    • Is the cash flow enough to pay back debt?
    • Will the bank accept my financial statements?

Key to success, business activity demands a reliable, disciplined accounting work force. The cost of hiring, managing and supporting appropriate accounting staff is a clear and necessary cost of doing business. The LAW requires businesses to maintain accounting systems and appropriate business management processes and systems, requiring appropriate staffing to manage those systems. McJames offers you cost savings solutions here.

When encountering the Revenue Authorities or regulatory authorities, there can be all kinds of decisions business owners will have to make in areas where prior experience may be lacking. It can all be very confusing, especially when faced with mounting penalties and fines. Fortunately, McJames & Francis is here to help you through these confusing times by doing things for you that you wouldn’t be able to accomplish on your own.
