Due to the economic policy of the government, which led to four percent decrease in revenues in the state budget for 2014, small and medium-sized businesses in 2014 will face big problems.
Experts predict that the government will solve budget problems at the expense of small businesses by "tightening the screws" by the tax and customs authorities.
Expert economist Natig Jafarli believes that there are no serious grounds for economic and investment projects that would increase in 2014 revenues from tax and customs revenues by 15% while reducing the state budget revenues by 4%.
According to the draft state budget for 2014, compared with this year tax authorities should increase the fees by 712 million, and customs - 130 million manat. If we consider that all big business in the country is concentrated in the hands of the ruling family and the oligarchy that are out of control, the burden for the completion of the budget by an additional $ 1.1 billion will be on SMEs, says Jafarli. He offers businessmen to form associations to counter future unlawful attacks.
According to incoming reports, quarterly "fees" for small businesses under the simplified tax from the fourth quarter of this year, began to increase. - 08B-
