LAZY CODING: How Plato cheats small countries

When Plato introduces new economic changes [ARTICLE HERE]

He was talking specifically (just to stop confusion) about holding companies. Various aspects introduced by their addition to the game.

Amongst one

Taxation

Work as Manager Income Tax will be shared between the Country where the Holding is based and the Country of the manager’s citizenship, as follows:
Paid tax: 80%(Holding Country work tax) + 20%(Citizenship work tax). As a reminder, for Work as Manager, the Income Tax is paid based on a Country’s average salary and Work Tax law.

Example: Citizen works as manager in a Holding located in Country A and has citizenship in Country B. He will pay 80% of country A’s Income Tax (to Country A) and 20% of Country B’s Income Tax (to Country B ).


Wait what?

Here is an actual example from my holding company in Idaho.



As you can see the USA 's work tax is at 1% and Irelands work tax is at 1%.

Their everage salary is 168.18 = 1.6818 per wam click

and ours 183. 16 = 1.836 wam tax per click

So for 1 wam click BY ME the USA gets 1.34 and Ireland gets 0.36 added it gives us 1.70 and as I rounded you can see the correct calculation was made by Plato.

Now for all wam clicks this formula will hold and we must get 36 cents per factory.

Lets see

Idaho



That gives me 184 x 1.34 for the USA = 246.56

and 184 x 0.36 for Ireland = 66.24 for Ireland

is correct

Now lets continue

Alaska Gold



145 X 1.34 = 194
145 X 0.36 = 52

= 246.20 [REMEMBER ROUNDED SO MY FIGURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN THE ACTUAL AMOUNT]

KENTUCKY



91 X 1.34 = 121.94
91 X 0.36 = 32.76

= 154.7

WASHINGTON



USA : 76 X 1.34 = 101.84
IRELAND = 76 X 0.36 = 27.36

= 129.20

Azorez,PORTUGAL


IRELAND = 17.28

Lets count all

IDAHO : 66.24
ALASKA : 52
KENTUCKY : 32.76
WASHINGTON : 27.36
PORTUGAL : 17.28
195.64 =

FOR THE USA I PAY

IDAHO : 246.56
ALASKA : 194
KENTUCKY : 121.94
WASHINGTON : 101.84
664.34

now lets look at we actually got



Remember I did work every day and upgraded on Sunday I think. But we can see although I worked fully each day.

The Work Taxes of Ireland is below what was deducted for Ireland.

My guess is somewhere there was just a lazy programmer that did not do his job properly. Im not even certain where the rest of the money goes.

As how can one explain it away?





DOES FYROM / SPAIN GET THE MONEY?

https://www.erepublik.com/en/main/latest-updates/0/75

This is an update pre Holding Companies. Remember one thing the tax you get from foreign companies is not determined by the amount of regions you own.

So 0/6 still equals 0.36 as would 6/6 equal 0.36.And that is not what the update say.
