In Russia, an experiment has begun on the transition to an automated simplified tax system for microenterprises and individual entrepreneurs with an annual income of up to 60 million RUB and the number of employees up to 5. The effectiveness of this measure can be assessed by calculating the tax burden as the main indicator of tax compliance. Most of the largest microenterprises with these parameters for 2020 have a tax burden below the industry average.

Information agency Credinform has selected for this ranking the Russian microenterprises with the volume of 2020 annual revenue up to 60 million RUB (TOP 10) according to the data from the Federal Tax Service. According to Globas there are over 1.1 million such microenterprises in Russia. These companies were ranked by income to calculate the tax burden (Table 1).

The tax burden is calculated as the ratio of taxes paid (net of income tax on dividends, personal income tax and insurance premiums) to income according to the statement of financial results (net of income from participation in other organizations).

The level of tax burden depends on the industry, region and the scale of the company's activities. To determine the reasonableness of the company's tax burden, it is necessary to compare the indicator with the industry average values.

For the most complete and objective view of the financial condition of the enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to the complex of indicators and financial ratios of the company.
