Does the senior citizen or PWD discount apply to the whole cake or a piece of cake? 🎂
A social media user recently raised concern about how two different restaurants counted his discount as a person with a disability.One of the shops gave him a P500 discount, while the other just gave him a P17 markdown.
The shop that gave him a P17 discount explained that the cake is good for 10 to 12 people and that the discount should only apply to one. This sparked a discussion online on whether the reasoning of the restaurant that gave him a P17 discount is correct., the shop that gave him a P17 discount may be correct.“Without commenting on the propriety of the amount of discount , Conti’s may be correct in dividing the price of the cake as the discount should only apply to items that are for the ‘exclusive use and enjoyment’ of the PWD,” he wrote in a tweet accompanied by slides from his lecture in a review center.
“The phrase ‘exclusive use and enjoyment’ of the senior citizen shall mean ‘for the senior citizen’s/PWDs personal consumption’ only,” Manuel’s slide reads.
“Little guidance is found in the regulations/circulars as to the specifics; hence, arguably, leeway is given to restaurants to determine the number of persons which may be served by a given item,” he added.The lawyer also warned that restaurants that “over grant discounts” may face the risk of “disallowance of deductions that they claim for tax purposes” although he said that it is difficult to audit.
