(See Annex A.) 2. The breakdown of the goal for RA No. 9337, for each specific measure under said law is shown in Annex B. B. Monthly Collection Goal, by Major Tax Type (Annex C) 1. Monthly goal allocation for Excise Taxes was provided by the Large Taxpayers Service. 2. For the remaining tax types, monthly goal allocation was based on estimated 2005 monthly trend and adjustments for likely CY 2006 trend due to the deferment of the implementation of the New VAT Law and revenues from 2006 work programs (as of February 2006.) 3. Collection goals from non-BIR Operations (i.e., Taxes on T-Bills and corresponding DST; and Travel Tax) were distinguished from collection goals from BIR Operations. C. Goal Allocation, by Implementing Office Total collection goals, by implementing office, are summarized in Annex D, with details as provided below. The goal from BIR operations is distributed to the Revenue

Regions and the Large Taxpayers Service, while the goal from non-BIR operations is allocated to the Office of the Commissioner. The allocation of said collection goals, by implementing office, from existing measures and from RA No. 9337 was divided into two parts: Part I--Goal on RA No. 9337 (New VAT Law); and Part II--Goal on Existing Measures, as follows: Part I--Goal Allocation for RA No. 9337 (New VAT Law) The goal for RA No. 9337, per specific measure as enumerated in Annex B, was allocated to concerned implementing offices proportionately, following the bases for allocation presented in Annex E. The resulting figures from said allocation methodology are shown in Annex D. Part II--Goal Allocation for Existing Measures The computation of the goal for existing measures, by implementing office, is shown in Annex F, and is derived as follows: 1. Actual CY 2005 collection was refined by deducting collections from following: a. Tax Remittance Advices (TRAs) of NGAs; b. Withholding taxes of GOCCs and LGUs; c. Non-recurring transactions; d. Special taxes (i.e., taxes on T-Bills, Travel Tax, Stock Transactions Tax, Excise Taxes and DST on Government Securities); and e. Transferred taxpayers (net), i.e., transfer-out less transfer-in. 2. Average of the growth rate of actual collection for CY 2005 and the growth rate of the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) for CY 2005 at current prices, net of agriculture (Annex G), was applied to the Refined Actual CY 2005 Collection, by implementing office. 3. TRAs of NGAs was assumed to be equal to CY 2005 collection (i.e., 0% growth) across all implementing offices. 4. For withholding taxes of GOCCs and LGUs for CY 2006, five percent (5%) growth rate from CY 2005 collection was assumed across all implementing offices. 5. The following taxes were allocated directly to the implementing offices concerned: a. Tax on T-Bills, Travel Taxes and DST on Government Securities-- Goals on Treasury Bills of P 44,151 million, Travel Tax of P345 million and DST on Government Securities P5,333 million were allocated to the Office of the Commissioner. b.

c. Stock Transactions Tax-- Goal on Stock Transactions Tax amounting to of P1,701 million was allocated to the implementing offices where the stock brokers are registered using ratio and proportion. 6. Adjustments () were made to maintain the total goal set by DOF. The following were considered: a. Percent share of collection by implementing offices to total BIR collection in CY 2005; b. Expiration of entitlements to Income Tax Holidays by identified taxpayers; c. Factors which drastically affect collections, such as government contracts, taxpayers' company policies, large collections on prior years' assessments, number of taxpayers under the jurisdiction of respective implementing offices; and d. Trends of collection performance in 2006. Aligned with the goals computed in items III.A, III.B and III.C above, the monthly goals by tax type and by month were allocated to implementing offices using ratio and proportion technique based on the trend of January to September 2006 actual collection and October to December 2005 refined collection.
