*salaries of 62595.0 UAH). The entities of small enterprise IE without hired labor must
pay the SSC for them to obtain a retirement age) and a single tax, the size of which
depends on the chosen group (The rate of the single tax for the 1st and 2nd groups is
currently set by local councils, but the basic rates remain unchanged: for the 1st group
-10% of the subsistence minimum for able-bodied persons (LCI) - 192.1 UAH per
month , for the 2nd group - 20% of the minimum wage - 834.60 UAH per month. The
only tax for IE of the third group depends on whether the entity of small enterprise is
a taxpayer of value added tax (VAT): for non-payers VAT - 5% of income, for VAT
payers - 3% of income plus VAT.). IE entities of small enterprise consider the general
system of taxation considerably less often due to the significant increase in this case,
the tax burden (IEs on the general system of taxation must pay: military fee of 1.5% of
net profit, income tax of individuals in the amount of 18% net profit and SSC - 22% of
net profit, but not less than 918.06 UAH).
It should be noted that today in Ukraine there is an uneven distribution of entities
of small enterprise in regions (Fig. 3).
