Tax benefits and their impact on the socio-economic level of senior citizens in the Canton of Guaranda, province of Bolivar-Ecuador

Abstract:

The research is directed to recognize a weak application of the Ecuadorian tax system by the elderly, due to the lack of knowledge of the tax benefits, which results in a detriment in the socio-economic level and lifestyle of people. The Ecuadorian government has implemented several benefits for this forgotten sector of society, which is highlighted in this research. There-fore, what was sought was to disseminate the tax benefits in a practical and free way, so that the elderly can understand and apply it; for this purpose, a basic tax guide was socialized with the elderly, detailing some aspects provided by the Internal Revenue Service (SRI) and the benefits they entail. The quality of disseminating, promoting and applying the duties and rights that the law establishes in favor of priority human groups such as the elderly, allows building a conscious and respectful society that guarantees a good life.
