Accounting policy for LLC with UTII
Accounting policy
The “imputed” organizations are required to keep accounting records, and therefore must have a properly drawn up accounting policy of an accounting nature. The basic rules and principles are reflected in the PBU, however, this document may include several alternative accounting methods, and for some transactions may not have them at all. The task of the LLC is to determine for itself a suitable and convenient way to organize accounting, and to develop the missing methods.
Accounting policy is not just a required formality, but a solution to controversial and ambiguous situations that arise in the process of doing business. That is, this type of policy is necessary, first of all, for the LLC itself.
Accounting policies for accounting should include:
Policy item | Explanations |
Working chart of accounts | A list of accounts selected from the existing Chart of Accounts and necessary to fully reflect all required indicators. It is convenient to carry out this plan with a list that includes the necessary accounts and specific sub-accounts for them, which will actually be used and will allow you to separately take into account the necessary indicators for calculating taxes for different types of business (it is on sub-accounts that it is most convenient to keep separate records). |
The procedure for assigning various indicators between subaccounts | Rules for organizing separate accounting for different types of business. |
Forms of primary documentation | Forms that will be used by the company (unified or personally prepared). Samples of self-prepared forms should be included in the policy. |
Register forms | We independently develop consolidated registers designed to transfer data from primary documentation. Must take into account transactions for each type of business. |
Accounting for intangible assets and fixed assets | Installed:
|
Accounting for inventory and products | Defined by:
|
Income, expenses | Features of accounting for commercial and administrative expenses, nuances of revenue recognition. |
If the company is a small entity, then accounting can be significantly reduced by writing in the accounting policy principles that simplify accounting and reporting - reduce the work plan by combining some accounts, abandon some PBUs, submit reports in a simplified form. All these points need to be written in the LLC policy.
Tax policy of LLC under UTII
The policy under consideration for UTII is mandatory for an LLC; it must be formed in such a way as to ensure the correct calculation of tax. For this reason, the policy must define the methods and rules by which the company's tax liability will be calculated.
First of all, tax accounting should reflect separate accounting of indicators. How to do this is determined by the company independently, since tax laws do not clearly define this. The main thing is that the principles enshrined in the policy make it possible to correctly calculate the single special tax and other tax obligations.
An accounting tax policy will be needed for UTII even if separate accounting is not needed due to running only one type of business. At the same time, it includes the type of activity, the physical indicator for it, the procedure for calculating the special tax, and accounting for insurance payments when reducing the tax payable.
Accounting policies for tax purposes include:
- Activities;
- A set of physical indicators that will be used when calculating the tax burden;
- The procedure for distributing these indicators when calculating a single special tax (for example, a company sells retail and repairs clothes in the same premises, these are different types of business for which it is necessary to determine how the premises area will be distributed between them);
- Method of separate accounting with simultaneous operation in different modes;
- Tax register forms required to reflect the required indicators are subject to independent development, taking into account the specifics of conducting business;
- Accounting for insurance premiums in order to reduce tax payable.
This policy comes into force from the beginning of the year, that is, it must be formed and approved before the end of the year in order to begin its application from January next. If the period for its application is not defined, then the policy is valid until the end of the business. It is convenient to make adjustments using separate administrative documents without changing the original document.
UTII calculation register
First of all, the accounting policy of individual entrepreneurs on UTII must reflect which document will confirm the calculation of the quarterly tax. This indicator is not influenced by actual income received in the course of business activities, as well as expenses. Therefore, there is no need to maintain tax registers that take these indicators into account.
However, when developing a sample register for calculation, you should take into account the algorithm for its implementation:
- The product of the basic yield and the physical indicator is found.
- The result obtained in the first paragraph is adjusted by coefficients K 1 and K 2.
- The final tax amount is reduced by benefits paid to employees and insurance premiums.
It is most convenient to make such calculations in the tax register. However, the laws do not provide a special form for this. Therefore, an individual entrepreneur will have to develop it independently. After this, an accounting policy is drawn up, the sample calculation of which will serve as an appendix. In this case, reference should be made to it in the text of the document. One phrase is enough: the calculation of the amount of imputed tax for the reporting period is carried out in the tax register, which is given in the appendix.
At the same time, the entrepreneur can independently decide whether it is more convenient for him to open the register every quarter or maintain it throughout the year. It is important, when drawing up a document for calculation, to include columns for all indicators used. The basic profitability and physical indicator are taken into account for each month; this should also be taken into account when drawing up the form.
It is most convenient if the register for calculation includes two tables:
- to calculate imputed income;
- to calculate the total amount of imputed tax.
Above is an example of a register for calculating tax for an individual entrepreneur whose main type of activity is retail trade, and the tax regime is UTII. The first table shows that all the necessary indicators by month are taken into account. This provides for a situation where the application of imputation began in the reporting quarter. In this case, column No. 5 is useful, which takes into account a coefficient equal to the ratio of the number of days that the entrepreneur worked in the month in question on imputed income to the total number of calendar days in that month.
The second table is intended to calculate the following values:
- total amount of UTII;
- tax-reducing indicators;
- the amount of tax to be paid to the budget (total line in the table).
Accounting policy for individual entrepreneurs with UTII
Individuals with the education of an individual entrepreneur can work for UTII, but are not required to keep accounting, which means they do not have to have an accounting policy.
At the same time, an individual entrepreneur is required to have a tax policy. The tax must be calculated by any “imputed” person, which means that the indicators required to calculate the tax burden must be taken into account.
In general, the tax policies of individual entrepreneurs and organizations are no different. Its content depends on the characteristics of the entrepreneur’s business, the number of types of activities on UTII, the location of the activity, and the presence of a combination of taxation regimes.
The minimum that needs to be specified in the policy is the type of business, the corresponding indicator, as well as the procedure for reducing the tax on the amount of payments for your insurance and your employees.
When conducting business in several directions, when carrying out one type in different territorial locations, when combining regimes, the principles of separate accounting are indicated in the tax policy.
The drawn up policy is approved by order of the individual entrepreneur.
Accounting for physical indicators
An important component of the imputation tax calculation formula is the physical indicator. An entrepreneur should carefully monitor its changes. If in any month the value of a physical indicator decreased or increased, from this period UTII should be calculated based on new data.
It is important to understand that when using area or number of retail outlets as physical indicators, it is enough to indicate a new value in the register. If it is planned to use the number of employees in the calculations for the activity being carried out, another register will have to be additionally developed. In this case, the accounting policy of individual entrepreneurs on UTII must contain a form for calculating the average number of employees, since it is this that is used in the calculation.
The average number should be calculated every month. The result obtained is transferred to the main calculation register.

Accounting policy for UTII and simplified tax system
The combination of two special modes requires separate accounting of income and expenditure indicators. It is necessary to separate part of the company’s expenses and income attributable to activities for each type of taxation regime, which will allow the special tax UTII and simplified tax system to be correctly calculated.
Specific principles for organizing separate accounting have not been established, so the company itself prescribes the rules for itself in its accounting policies. The only thing the Ministry of Finance pays attention to is the need to ensure unambiguous assignment of indicators between types of activities under different tax regimes.
For these purposes, the accounting policy provides explanations on the components of the working chart of accounts - the names of the accounts and subaccounts opened for them. It is convenient to open two sub-accounts for each account, each of which will keep records of indicators for different special modes. This point needs to be clarified in the accounting policy.
As for tax policy, it is necessary to clearly distinguish between the accounting of company income and expenses. It is these indicators that will allow you to correctly calculate the single special tax for the simplified regime. In this regard, the tax policy states:
- Separate accounting of income and expense indicators (the latter are distributed in proportion to the share of income on a monthly or quarterly basis);
- The distribution of insurance-type contributions between modes is in accordance with the income received, while you need to remember about different tax periods - a year for the simplified tax system and a quarter for UTII.
Otherwise, the formation of accounting policies is based on the structure described above.

Accounting for input VAT
Organizations on the OSN pay VAT, while the single tax is exempt from its payment. Input VAT on UTII is included in the cost of goods, works and services, and input VAT on the general system can be deducted. When combining regimes, it is necessary to regulate the procedure for calculating VAT in the accounting policy and separate the accounting of input tax. If you do not keep separate records, you will not be able to deduct VAT and will have to cover the tax from your own funds.
Combining the two modes, distribute VAT according to the rules of clause 4 of Art. 170 Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Divide goods, works and services into three types and open sub-accounts for them on account 19:
- used on special tax purposes in taxable transactions - 19.1;
- used on UTII - 19.2;
- used in two types of activities - 19.3.
For general resources, distribute the tax using the proportional method based on quarterly indicators. Fix the procedure for determining the proportion in the accounting policy.
If you do not know in what activity the resource will be used, then you can take into account input VAT when implementing one of the options, which must be indicated in the accounting policy:
- accept VAT as a deduction, and then restore and pay to the budget that part that relates to goods used for imputation;
- take into account input VAT in the cost of goods, and then restore the part that falls on the main tax base and take it for deduction;
- divide the VAT in parts - take part for deduction, and leave part in the cost of goods. Then restore it and take part for deduction.
Insurance premiums
Separate accounting of insurance premiums is needed to calculate profits and to reduce UTII. To do this, you need to divide the staff into three groups:
- engaged in imputed activities;
- employed in general regime activities;
- engaged in both types of activities.
Companies issue orders to distribute employees by type of activity and establish their affiliation in job descriptions. Difficulties arise with insurance premiums for employees engaged in two types of activities. The number of such personnel is distributed, as a rule, based on the share of revenue of one mode in the total revenue of the company or based on the percentage of personnel involved in each type of activity. It is important to note that management personnel are prohibited from being distributed and must be counted among employees for assigned activities.
