shown salary Explanation: The problem it's not only official; even the money we sometimes get is not always SHOWN on payroll sheets. I remember an American using this exactly phrase - shown (for tax people) salary. |

SALARY (shown salary, demonstrated salary, officially shown salary) Explanation: Some remarks. There is no an absolute translation for the term in question: salary is salary and this word presumes that all tax entities know about this payemment. E.g., on that scandal bank history, one author writes: ... "It would be interesting to find out how with a modest member of the presidential administration,Tatiana Jachencko, with a s a l a r y of 5,000 to 6,000 rubles, could spend$10,000 without asking herself where this money came from"... In Russian ways to avoid overloading by taxes some businessmen simply do not show (demonstrate to tax authorities) a part of remuneration they are paying to contracted people: a person officially gains 2000 rubles per month, but lives for $600 bucks (which are usually given without legalization of the money). So, under a tight pressure of taxes, we see the contrary picture: businessmen are running out a situation (in which you might get only a negative income if pay all taxes) by 1. starting to pay and receive in two different ways a) explicit (or shown, or unhidden, or transparent) and b) implicit (or hidden, non-shown, under-table, bribe-like, etc.) This porcess includes also paymment of salaries: to each 100 rubles of SHOWN and GIVEN salary to a staff worker the owner of the business must pay: 28 rubles to pension/social/, etc. 11 rubles to other funds, 1% of total turnover to education or something similar, 1.5% of turnover are road-taxes etc. Therefore as soon as you enter to a semicriminal payment of wages (say, 20$ in explicit form and 80% in "undre-table" or "in envelope", etc.), you start to control the situation more aggresively (if you say do not like an imployee,you always might cut payment of that underground part of salary and thus put him/her into situation he/she cannot survive). Namely these processes generated 1. "белая" зарплата - "white" salaries = officially shown or revealed or tax declaired payments 2. "черная" ("темная", "вторая", "в конверте", "налом", "по второй ведомости", "на руки", ...) зарплата = "black cash", etc. 3. "нал", "черный нал", "наличка", "кеш", ("обналичка" as the result of turning account money to cash money - do not mix with the proper process:-) black cash, unreported payments, cash payments, hidden payments, etc. See also www.hse.ru/en/Rus_econ/enterprises.htm stars.coe.fr/doc/doc99/EDOC8294.HTM www.cdi.org/russia/johnson/5142.html www.wayan.net/journal/russia/feb_22.htm www.sptimes.ru/secur/407/news/losing.htm www.internationalbudget.org/cdrom/papers/tax/unofficialecon... etc. Good luck to discover the ways of things are!
