  Tax Revenue Outlook for Ukraine No.2 (6)

  The period to which the poll:  2007 and 2008
  Poll period:  December 2007

  Enterprise profits tax (EPT) is the second most important source of consolidated fiscal revenues after the VAT. Between January and October 2007 the EPT revenues amounted to UAH 22.1 bn being over-executed by 13.4% of plan. This follows the Institute forecast concerning the underestimation by the Government of EPT revenues in 2007. The over-execution of EPT collections is mainly attributed to stronger than officially projected nominal GDP growth and improved economic performance of enterprises supported by further growth of prices at the main export markets for Ukraine. The IER upgrades its previous forecast of the EPT revenues in 2007 that are now estimated at UAH 31.8 bn (4.5% of GDP). Thus, the government underestimates the EPT revenues by UAH 3.1 bn.
