How much profit sharing do you get?
Legislative Decree 892 distributes a percentage of third-category taxable net income:
| Sector | % | | --- | --- | | Fishing, telecom, industry | 10% | | Mining, wholesale/retail and restaurants | 8% | | Agriculture (2024–2026, Law 31110) | 7.5% | | Other activities | 5% |
That pool splits 50% by days actually worked and 50% by pay in the year. Cap: 18 salaries as of 31 Dec. The remainder goes to training (art. 3).
CTR example
Retail (8%) firm, net income S/ 1,000,000, 20 equal workers (300 days, 14 salaries of S/ 2,500):
- Pool = 1,000,000 × 8% = S/ 80,000
- Days half = S/ 40,000 × 300 / 6,000 = S/ 2,000
- Pay half = S/ 40,000 × 35,000 / 700,000 = S/ 2,000
- Total = S/ 4,000 (cap S/ 45,000)
Paid 30 days after the annual tax-return deadline. Only firms with more than 20 workers and positive net income.
