Reimbursive travel scenarios and IRP5 codes
Description

Reimbursive travel entries determine how the system calculates taxable and non-taxable amounts.

Cause
Resolution

Apply scenario one: capture kilometres and rate

  1. Enter the kilometres travelled.
  2. Enter the rate per kilometre.
  3. Allow the system to split the value based on the prescribed rate.
  4. Review the IRP5 codes generated:
    • 3702 for the non-taxable portion
    • 3722 for the excess portion

Apply scenario two: capture total amount only

NOTE:

Avoid this method because the system doesn't split the taxable portion.

  1. Enter the Reimbursive amount only.
  2. Don't enter kilometres or a rate.
  3. Allow the system to treat the full amount as remuneration.
  4. Review the IRP5 code generated:
    • 3701 for the full value

Apply scenario three: use fixed value with calculation

NOTE:

Avoid this method because it reduces calculation accuracy.

 

  1. Capture the value in the fixed column.
  2. Don't enter kilometres or a rate.
  3. Allow the system to assume the rate doesn't exceed the prescribed rate.
  4. Review the IRP5 code generated:
    • 3703 if no travel allowance exists
    • 3702 if a travel allowance exists
