At the end of the year, the National Development and Reform Commission and other ministries and commissions carried out extensive investigations, analyzes and judgments on the completion of the annual cost reduction “checklist” tasks and the actual results, and They started brainstorming cost reduction ideas the next year. From the current point of view, the 23 annual cost reduction measures launched in July this year have been implemented, and the new tax cuts and rate reductions for the whole year will exceed 2.5 trillion yuan, plus the reduction of logistics and energy costs, totaling billions. The yuan cost reduction bonus goes directly to the entity. Looking ahead to next year, the industry noted that more reform methods will be used to reduce the burden, such as tax reform to get more room for tax cuts.
The journalist was informed that the Office of Economic Regulation and Operation of the National Development and Reform Commission recently held a symposium of the cost reduction work department in 2020 to systematically classify and summarize the progress and results of the cost reduction work costs this year, and discuss current difficulties and problems in cost reduction work. He discussed working ideas and preliminary considerations for the coming year. Twenty-seven member units of the Joint Inter-ministerial Conference on Cost Reduction of Real Economy Enterprises participated in the meeting, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Finance and the People’s Bank of China.
In July this year, in the context of the coordination of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Finance and the People’s Bank of China jointly issued the “Notice on how to do a good job in reducing costs in 2020” 23 key tasks cover tax, logistics, financing, energy use and other aspects of the content of load reduction, refined the sheet roadmap for annual cost reduction and clarified mission statement.
Currently, all the tasks on the checklist have been implemented. For example, in terms of tax reduction and tariff reduction, tax and tax departments have issued 7 lots of 28 preferential tax and tariff reduction measures since this year, including emergency measures to support prevention and control of epidemic, and assistance to be affected by the epidemic. Measures for more difficult industries, as well as measures to support the resumption of work and production of companies, especially focused on helping small and micro-enterprises overcome difficulties and further increase fiscal support. These policies and measures, combined with last year’s large-scale tax and fee cuts, are expected to reduce the burden on businesses by more than 2.5 trillion yuan this year.
According to data from the Ministry of Transportation, in the first half of this year, logistics costs fell by more than 99 billion yuan, more than last year’s total. Dai Dongchang, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transportation, once said at a press conference that by streamlining the process of government affairs, we will further promote the reduction of transportation and logistics costs, improve quality and efficiency, and it is expected which will cut logistics costs by more than 130 billion yuan this year.
The price of electricity is the most sensitive factor of production for industry in general, commerce and large industrial users. Based on a 10% reduction in the previous two years, China will again implement a 5% reduction in overall industrial and commercial electricity prices this year. At the same time, favorable two-part electricity pricing policies and 5G electricity cost reduction have also been successively launched. The annual reduction and exemption of electricity charges is estimated to exceed 110 billion yuan.
With the joint efforts of all parties, a number of cost reduction measures have been effectively implemented and the effects of the policies are gradually showing. This year, China’s various economic indicators will continue to “turn positive” and the economy will continue to recover steadily, which is inseparable from the role of cost reduction.
Let’s take for example the tax cuts and fees that have the most obvious and direct benefit of market entities. From January to October, the country’s new tax and fee reductions amounted to 2,230,161 million yuan, of which 746,112 million yuan was added in tax cuts and 1,484,049 million yuan in additional tariff reductions. .
“In general, the tax and tariff reduction policies implemented this year in response to the epidemic are relatively large in terms of absolute value and relative GDP, from the perspective of the countries of the world,” said industry authorities that the reductions Large-scale taxes and fees have passed the strengthening stage. Sex policies, combined with institutional arrangements, unleashed large-scale tax and fee reduction dividends, effectively covered the impact of the epidemic, and played an important role in supporting the prevention and control of the epidemic, helping companies overcoming difficulties and promoting economic recovery.
“The sense of profit of companies by helping companies alleviate their difficulties such as tax cuts and tariff reductions, financial support, etc.,” said Meng Wei, spokesman for the National Development and Reform Commission, on the day 16. Survey results showed that November reflected capital-distressed manufacturing. Small businesses accounted for 42.3%, a drop of 2.6 percentage points from the previous month and the lowest point this year.
Sun Chuanwang, a professor at Xiamen University China Energy Economic Research Center, told the Economic Information Daily reporter that the most important feature of this year’s cost reduction policy is “an improvement in quality and multi-angle, comprehensive, robust efficiency, “including tax reduction, fee reduction and financial improvement. Macro-level policies, such as system support and cost reduction, also cover specific costs and detailed expenses for businesses such as land, labor, electricity, logistics, and production technology. From the perspective of operational efficiency, cost reduction measures have effectively covered the pressure on the production and operation of real companies and promoted the general recovery and stable functioning of the economy and society.
The reporter learned that in the next step, the Ministry of Finance, the State Tax Administration and other relevant departments will increase guidance and supervision, continue to pay close attention to changes in the tax burden of various industries, follow up on the effect of monitoring, analysis and judgment, and will study and solve pending problems reported by localities and companies. , Help companies make full use of policies and better promote the resumption of work and production and the smooth functioning of the economy.
Meng Wei said that there are still uncertainties in the epidemic and the external environment. The recovery of some industries is not very optimistic. Some small and micro enterprises and exporting companies still face many difficulties. In this sense, the National Development and Reform Commission will continue to strengthen the follow-up analysis, implement relevant detailed policies and consolidate the good momentum of the economic recovery.
At present, the relevant ministries and localities have started to study and formulate working ideas to reduce costs in the coming year. Industry experts noted that more reform methods are expected to be used next year to reduce the burden.
Liu Shangxi, president of the Chinese Academy of Fiscal Sciences, said that at present, there are some phased policy arrangements in the tax and fee reduction measures, which will involve the question of how to continue the system in the future. Tax reduction should also be combined with improvement of the tax system, including reform of the social security system, reform of the tax revenue system, etc. Next year, more reforms of the tax system will be adopted to get more room for burden reduction.
“In the future, the indirect tax share should be appropriately reduced and the direct tax share should be appropriately increased,” Xu Xianchun, professor at Tsinghua University’s Faculty of Economics and Management and former deputy director of the National Statistics Office, He also noted that a moderate reduction in the proportion of indirect taxes will help companies to reduce production costs and play a fair role in taxation; It is conducive to reducing the tax burden of new economy companies that have invested heavily in the early stage and promoting the growth of new economy companies.
“In the future, we will continue to increase efforts to reduce costs. The prerequisite for effective safeguards is strong development. The key to the solution lies in further optimizing the allocation of resources and promoting rationalization of factor prices.” . Sun Chuanwang pointed out that the transformation of structural methods and mechanisms should be used fundamentally. Improve efficiency to reduce costs and promote high-quality economic development. “Ultimately, the reform dividends should be sent to real companies through policy advocacy, to boost confidence in business development and strengthen the endogenous driving force of economic operation. This is the ultimate goal of reducing costs.”
