Integrating Islamic Principles of Taxation within China – An Analysis of its Impact on Corporate Earnings
Öz
Taxation represents a cornerstone for corporations to optimize their taxation expenditures and minimize their impact on their earnings. Corporations aim to optimize their earnings distributions to minimize the overall amount of tax paid. The Islamic taxation system differs substantially from conventional tax systems across the globe in terms of the scope and purpose of the taxes. The article evaluates the impact of Islamic taxation on the earnings and taxation levels of major corporations in China. The results indicate that interest earnings and expenditure concerning income are major distinguishing factors for Islamic compliance. The conclusions were then integrated into an artificial intelligence framework to estimate the taxation amounts and compare them with the total tax paid by the corporations. The results indicated that corporations may pay overall slightly higher rates but that for the majority of corporations, the taxation levels will remain identical. Amongst others, those corporations with significant interest expenditures may experience higher taxation if those expenditures are not set off by other expenditures or Islamic-compliant costs associated with liabilities. The results indicate the opportunities for corporations to optimize their taxation bases within China.

İslami Vergilendirme İlkelerinin Çin'e Entegre Edilmesi - Kurumsal Kazançlar Üzerindeki Etkisinin Analizi
Öz
Vergilendirme, şirketlerin vergi harcamalarını optimize etmeleri ve kazançları üzerindeki etkilerini en aza indirmeleri için önemli bir unsuru temsil etmektedir. Şirketler, ödenen toplam vergi miktarını en aza indirmek için kazanç dağıtımlarını optimize etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. İslami vergi sistemi, vergilerin kapsamı ve amacı bakımından dünya genelindeki geleneksel vergi sistemlerinden önemli ölçüde farklılık göstermektedir. Bu makale, İslami vergilendirmenin Çin'deki büyük şirketlerin kazançları ve vergilendirme düzeyleri üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmektedir. Sonuçlar, faiz kazançlarının ve gelirle ilgili harcamaların İslami uyum için önemli ayırt edici faktörler olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca araştırma bulguları, vergilendirme tutarlarını tahmin etmek ve bunları şirketler tarafından ödenen toplam vergi ile karşılaştırmak için bir yapay zeka çerçevesine entegre edilmiştir. Sonuçlara göre, şirketlerin genel olarak biraz daha yüksek oranlar ödeyebileceği, ancak şirketlerin çoğunluğu için vergilendirme seviyelerinin aynı kalacağı görülmüştür. Buna ek olarak, önemli faiz harcamaları olan şirketler, bu harcamaların diğer harcamalarla veya yükümlülüklerle ilişkili İslami uyumlu maliyetlerle mahsup edilmemesi durumunda daha yüksek vergilendirme ile karşılaşabilirler. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar, şirketlerin Çin'deki vergilendirme matrahlarını optimize etme fırsatlarına da işaret etmektedir.
