It appears that Apple is facing an important investigation by the EC (European Commission) that could end in the obligation of the same to return a total amount of around 8.000 million dollars in taxes from its activity in Europe.
It is not the first time that this topic has been heard on the networks and it is that the topic that Apple channels all the sales it makes in Europe through Ireland through the tax benefits it obtains there.
We are not talking about it being Apple itself that has not paid what it owes but that it is Ireland that has committed the fraud by leaving taxes at a lower interest. Apple has paid 2,5% taxes for the last ten years when they should have been 12,5%.
These tax benefits are being offered by Ireland itself to the Cupertino company, or that is what is allegedly already being discussed in multiple places in the network of networks. If the investigation concludes that there has been tax fraud, those with the bitten apple will have to return the chilling figure we have told you about.
We have to keep waiting to find out if the EC ends up fining Apple for receiving favorable treatment from Ireland as far as taxes are concerned, an issue that in the country itself is being a scandal, given the size that Apple itself has around the world.
