The computation is where accounting profit becomes chargeable income. Done carefully it is also where legitimate savings live: adjustments, allowances, reliefs and schedules that survive an IRAS look.
The classic failures are quiet ones: depreciation added back but capital allowances never claimed, private-use portions estimated with no basis, renovation costs expensed when they qualified for section 14N deductions over three years, and prior-year losses whose shareholding tests nobody checked. We rebuild the computation from the ledger with a schedule behind every number, so the return is not just filed but defensible.

Qualifying donations to IPCs attract an enhanced deduction, currently 250%. Only IPC-receipted gifts count, and we reconcile claims to receipts.
Private vehicle costs, personal portions of mixed expenses, fines and capital items. We flag recurring add-backs so you can restructure them where legitimate alternatives exist.
