Thanks for invitation,

I do believe that, the effective tax rates are different from country to country, but in most cases they are minimizing taxes rates for these type of businesses, especially when they are encouraging and putting small businesses on the top of its properties.

The actual tax rate is the average tax rate to which an individual or company is subject. The actual tax rate for individuals is the average rate of taxable income earned. The actual tax rate of the company is the average rate at which profits before taxes are taxed.

 

The actual tax rate for individuals is calculated by dividing the total tax of tax expenditures through taxable income. For companies, the tax rate is calculated by dividing the total tax expenditure by the companies' profits before tax.
