VAT has no effect on how businesses organize, because

2880-694: The increase in the number of vehicles and the demand for limited-access highways, the Philippine government requested the government of Japan to conduct a master plan for the development of a high standard highway network in 2009 under the Philippine Medium-Term Public Investment Plan (2005–2010). The plan calls for the promotion of national integrity by strengthening the Philippine Nautical Highway System linking roads and ferries,

At each stage of production, the seller collects a tax and the buyer pays that tax. The buyer can then be reimbursed for paying

3200-531: The price at which it is sold increases. VAT has been criticized by opponents as a regressive tax , meaning that the poor pay more, as a percentage of their income, relative to the wealthier individuals, given the higher marginal propensity to consume among the poor. Defenders reply that relating taxation levels to income is an arbitrary standard and that the VAT is in fact a proportional tax . An OECD study found that VAT could even be slightly progressive. VAT's effective regressivity can be reduced by applying

3264-457: The rules of the WTO is controversial; it was alleged that the proposed tax would favour domestically produced goods as they would be taxed less than imports, to a degree varying across sectors.

Each business is responsible for handling the necessary tax paperwork. However, businesses have no obligation to request certifications from purchasers who are not end users, or of providing such certifications to their suppliers, but they incur increased accounting costs for collecting

Consequently, the quantity of a good purchased decreases, and/or

The Philippine highway network spans over 32,000 kilometers (20,000 mi) across all regions of the Philippines. These highways, however, are mostly single and dual carriageways with many U-turn lanes and intersections slowing down traffic. Coupled with
