The objective estimation method for determining the net performance of economic activities other than agriculture, livestock and forestry has as its main characteristic that it does not take into account the real flows of income and expenses produced in the development of the activity. Instead, certain objective indicators are applied that represent the basic structural economic characteristics of each sector of economic activity (signs, indices or modules), which are previously approved by Order of the Minister of Finance.

  1. Economic activities carried out directly by individuals
  2. Economic activities carried out through entities under the income attribution regime
  3. Activities included in fiscal year 2020 in the objective estimation method
