Cooperatives as non-profit entities in Mexico: Regulation and tax characteristics
Abstract
The aim of this article is to look for if the cooperatives as members of the social sector of the economy are included in the laws as non-profit and beneficial entities with tax incentives. To this end, a theoretical approach has been made to nonprofit organizations and the social sector of the economy, emphasizing the pre-eminence of cooperatives in economic and social development. We use the exegetical method to explain the scope of the legal norms and the resolutions of the Court. The results show that the Mexican legislation recognizes the non-profit characteristic in a limited way, especially in the income tax.
