The fiscal system in Belize is a straight-forward Production Sharing Contract (PSC) system. Each PSC is a separate ring fence for the purposes of cost recovery and profit sharing. Corporate tax is ring fenced at the company level. The barrel equals lifetime revenue / field reserves. Profit equals revenue – costs from barrel charts.
