Transfer pricing

Editeur : Editions Francis Lefebvre - juin 2008
Arnaud Le Boulanger  -  Pierre-Jean Douvier  -  Stéphane Gelin  -  Bruno Gibert
A guide to fixing and documenting transfer pricing and facing tax audit.

This book has been written by Pierre-Jean Douvier, Stéphane Gelin, Bruno Gibert, Arnaud Le Boulanger teamed up with the editorial staff of Editions Francis Lefebvre.

In a context of globalization of the economy, transfer pricing has become within a few years a major stake of international tax system ; as well for international groups always seeking for market stakes, costs rationalization and optimization of their performances as tax administrations when looking for preserving their "revenues", strengthen their legislation and increase tax audits.

The main difficulty lies within pricing of transactions between member companies of a group. Where different economic operators agree on the fact that this cost must comply with the principle of full competition developed by the OECD, its implementation gives rise to numerous matters.

Unique, the work "Transfer pricing" offers all keys:
  • To drafting your transfer pricing policy: operational analysis, choice of the method, research and selection of comparables...
  • To facing tax audits: documentation to be provided, ruling out methods of double taxation
  • To securing your transfer pricing through a prior agreement on transfer pricing to be applied to your future transactions.
Technical and thorough, enriched in various cases, this work is intended for international groups and advisers'.

Union representatives' appointment

Editeur : Editions LexisNexis Litec (1ère édition) - Collection Litec Professionnels - Février 2008

The first edition of the book "Union representatives' appointment" published in Litec Professionnels collection - Labour law in Editions LexisNexis Litec, has just been publishing.

Aimed at human resource managers, trade unions, lawyers, judges or still at students, this book tackles the overall problems, sometimes complex, arising by trade union representatives' appointment: content and appointment's signatory, fraud, appointed employees, representatives' number, trade unions' representativeness, distinct corporations, a.s.o.

It is completed by numerous court orders rendered by various tribunaux d'instance which are illustrating either principles defined by the Cour de Cassation or by the Labour Code or palliating the absence of precise rules.

Union representatives' appointment entails significant consequences for:
  • The trade union which is at the origin of it, which might get a legitimacy in the enterprise and in the view of the employer and/or demonstrate its representativeness;
  • The employee who finds herself/himself given a mandate with an undetermined term, the pertained protection, a time credit and the opportunity to move around in the enterprise or the corporation ;
  • The employer who ought to get involved in annual negotiations and compromise with the employee's protection, but vice versa negotiate and sign (unless amendments to the no. 2004-391 Act dated 4 May 2004) collective agreements or settlements.

Therefore this appointment must be faultless and fit to the legal configuration of the enterprise, otherwise it will be void.

As to the author: Rodolphe Olivier is a lawyer within Employment Law Department at CMS Bureau Francis Lefebvre law firm. Furthermore, he lectures at the University of Panthéon-Assas-Paris II at the Master 2 "Law and practice of labour relationships" Department headed by Professor Bernard Teyssié as well as at the Centre Régional de Formation Professionnelle des Avocats de Versailles [Local Centre of Vocational training for Lawyers in Versailles].

VAT deduction: keys of the reform

Editeur : Editions Francis Lefebvre - September 2007
Ariane Beetschen
In VAT history, the 2007-566 decree of 16 April 2007 will be doubtless a red-letter day.

Actually, this law proceeds, as from 1 January 2008, to an overhaul of VAT deduction's methods which disrupts the outstanding framework of the rights to deduction. Giving a larger place to the principle of expenses allotment to the detriment of the standard deduction (ex. prorata), this overhaul implements a fully innovative device, based on an arithmetic formula (coefficient of deduction) enabling to calculate, for every asset and service, the amount of deductible tax and adjustments.

The device set up as from 1 January 2008 implies consequently for concerns and organizations, especially for persons liable for VAT or partly rated, a drastic change in the application of VAT deduction rules and, more generally, in their approach of upstream VAT.

This book written by a tax adviser of CMS Bureau Francis Lefebvre, one of the foremost VAT practices, enables operators to focus on the current statutes and to understand the alterations as from 1 January 2008. Intended for all operators, including 'integral' VAT-payers, it scrutinizes the new rules and is illustrated with numerous practical examples

Reform of collective proceedings (bankruptcy and liquidation proceedings)

Editeur : Editions Francis Lefebvre - March 2006

New applicable scheme on the 1st of January 2006 after the Company Safeguard Act and its application decree.

9 out of 10 ailing companies are wound up in often disastrous conditions. The reason thereof  is that frequently employers are reluctant to submit the case to a court. Therefore, the legislature has passed a new reform aiming at the company survival : the Company Safeguard Act 2005 (July 26th) actually favours prevention and negotiation by urging managers to act on difficulties above and creditors to take part in.

Far be it from simplifying  proceedings, this Act which is made up of  200 sections, by carrying a new numbering of the existing provisions, conveys a very complex set of rules.

The Practice File 'Reform of collective proceedings' (bankruptcy and liquidation proceedings) decrypts for you this new set of rules in clear and concise terms.

Building lease : from theory to practice

Editeur : Publisher : LexisNexis - March 2006
Jean-Luc Tixier
Combining ownership with building function, permitting builders to benefit from the disposition of building lands at attractive economic terms : the purposes of building lease created in 1964. Splitting-up between land property and surface right  imposed is still made out as obscure, therefore, often, a hesitation to enter  into this type of contract of which features nevertheless confer an original place.

Should it be contemplated to conclude the building lease in housing or trade or industry segment, this publication suggests to identify constraints and possibilities of this contract.
