| Budget 2017 Update - Relief for contingency fee engagements |
| Stephen Rupnarain is a Partner, Tax Advisory at Collins Barrow Toronto |
| As proposed in the March 22, 2017 budget, every professional must include year-end work-in-progress (WIP) into taxable income effective for taxation years beginning after March 21, 2017. WIP for professionals typically represents unbilled professional time and cost incurred in the rendering of services to clients. This is often captured in the form of a professional’s “charge-out” rate, which represents their cost, overhead and some profit component. |

| Collins Barrow periodically publishes Tax Flash for its clients and associates. It is designed to highlight and summarize the continually changing tax and business scene across Canada. While Tax Flash may suggest general planning ideas, we recommend professional advice always be sought before taking specific planning steps. |
