## COOPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 2019-09 **Series of 2019** **TO:** ALL CONCERNED **SUBJECT:** GUIDELINES IN THE ALLOCATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF PATRONAGE REFUND ### Section 1. Legal Basis Article 86 of the Philippine Cooperative Code of 2008: (5) The remaining net surplus shall be made available to the members in the form of interest on share capital not to exceed the normal rate of return on investments and patronage refunds: Provided, that any amount remaining after the allowable interest and the patronage refund have been deducted shall be credited to the reserve fund. * * * Rule 10, Section 14 of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulation of R.A. 9520: “Patronage Refund. The principle of Patronage Refund is a principle of equity wherein an equal right of members to participate in the organization and to equitably share in the benefits accruing there from is established. Under this principle, the Net Surplus shall not be construed as profit, but as excess payments made by them from the cooperative and which shall be deemed to have been returned to them if the same is distributed as prescribed by the Code and by this Rule. Provided, however, that the amount allocated for patronage refund shall not be less than thirty percent (30%) of the net surplus after deducting the statutory reserves based on the principle of equity. Provided, further, that in no case shall the rate of patronage refund be more than twice the rate of interest on share capital.” ### Section 2. Scope This Guidelines shall cover all types and categories of cooperatives except Cooperative Union. ### Section 3. Definition of Terms - **General Fund** – refers to the fund set aside for the proportionate amount of patronage refund set aside for non-member patrons; - **Patronage Refund** refers to the amount returned to individual patrons in proportion to their individual patronage of the cooperative’s products and services; - **Patron** refers to an individual who availed the products and services of the cooperatives who may be members or non-members. ### Section 4. Guiding Principle The principle of Patronage Refund (PR) is a principle of equity wherein an equal right of members to participate in the organization and to equitably share in the benefits accruing therefrom is established. Under the principle, the net surplus shall not be construed as profit, but as excess payments made by them from the cooperative and which shall be deemed to have been returned to them if the same is distributed as prescribed by R.A. 9520 and its Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations. ### Section 5. Allocation of Patronage Refund Allocation of patronage refund shall be made only after allocation of the statutory funds and interest on share capital. The amount allocated for patronage refund shall not be less than thirty percent (30%) of the net surplus after deducting the statutory reserves based on the principle of equity, provided further, the rate of patronage refund shall not be more than twice the rate of interest on share capital. In case the rate of patronage refund is more than twice the rate of Interest on Share Capital (ISC), the cooperative shall reduce the rate of allocation of thirty percent (30%) for patronage refund to meet or satisfy the requirement. ### Section 6. Recording of Transactions The cooperatives shall maintain separate recording of sales and receipts transactions for members and non-members. In the case of multipurpose cooperatives, separate recording of income and related expenses per business activity is required. ### Section 7. Bases for Computation of Patronage Refund The bases for the computation of patronage refund shall depend on the cooperative’s business activities as reflected in the Statement of Operation for single type cooperative and departmentalized Statement of Operation for multi-purpose type cooperative. The bases in determining the Patronage Refund and those entitled thereto for the different types of business activities are as follows: | Type of Cooperative's Business Activities | Basis for Patronage Refund | Who are entitled to Patronage Refund | |---|---|---| | Lending | Interest income from loans, service fees and filing fees received and earned for the year. | Members only | | Trading/Marketing | Net Sales (Gross Sales less Sales Returns and Sales Discounts) | Members and non-members | | Health Services | Hospital fees and Other health service fees which form part of the income of the cooperatives | Members and non-members | | Transportation | Fares Sales/receipts from allied services | Members and non-members | | Labor Service | Any other Fees collected or derived from the members which form part of the income of the cooperative such as "butaw"/daily dues, management fees, etc. Gross Salary of deployed member-employees | Deployed member-employees | | Services Provided by Cooperative | Payroll or Labor Cost | Member-workers | | Electric Workers | Total bill | Member-consumers | | Water Service | Total bill| Member-consumers | | Education| Tuition and other fees| Members and non-members | | Housing | Interest income from lease agreement and/or other fees collected Premiums Paid | Members | | Insurance | | Members and non-members | | Credit Surety | Service/Surety and other fees | Members | | Other Services | Other fees collected such as rental fees, training fees, etc. | Members and non-members | Multi-purpose cooperatives shall adopt the computation of patronage refund based on the activities enumerated above. For this purpose, multi-purpose cooperatives shall have separate recording of transactions per business activity. ### Section 8. Computation of Patronage Refund The rate of Patronage Refund (PR) shall be computed as follows: - **For Single Business Activity** $Rate of PR = \frac{Amount Allocated for PR}{Amount of Patronage^*}$ *based on Section 7. Bases for Computation of Patronage Refund. $PR per individual = Rate of PR x amount of individual patronage$ - **For Multi-Purpose Cooperative** 1. Determine the amount of Net Surplus per business activity. Common expenses may be allocated in accordance with the policy of the cooperative. 2. If there is Other Income, allocation shall be proportionate to the Net Surplus per business activity. 3. Determine the total amount allocated for PR per business activity. 4. Compute the rate of PR per business activity by dividing the amount allocated for PR per business activity over the amount of patronage per business activity. 5. To determine the individual PR, multiply the rate of PR to the amount of individual patronage. To determine if the PR does not exceed twice the rate of ISC, get the average of the rate of PR per business activity and compare the result to the rate of ISC. **Sample Computation for Patronage Refund for Multi-Purpose Cooperative** **Facts:** | | | |---|---| | Interest income from Loans (Credit) | P 1,000,000.00 | | Service Income (Labor) | 3,000,000.00 | | Other Income (Income from Investment) | 100,000.00 | | Salaries (deployed)-(Labor) | 2,000,000.00 | | Other Operating Expenses: | | | Credit | 800,000.00 | | Labor | 800,000.00 | | Average Share Month| 5,000,000.00 | **Statement of Operation** | | | | | |---|---|---|---| | | Credit | Labor (Income from Investment) | Total | | Interest income from Loans | 1,000,000 | | 1,000,000 | | Service Income | | 3,000,000 | 3,000,000 | | Gross Revenue | 1,000,000 | 3,000,000 | 4,000,000 | | Other Income | | | 100,000 | | Less: Expenses | | | | | Salaries (deployed)| 800,000 | | 2,000,000 | | Other OPEX | | 2,000,000 | 1,500,000 | | Total Expense | 800,000 | 2,700,000 | 3,500,000 | | (1) Net Surplus per business activity before Allocation | 200,000 | 300,000 | 100,000 | 600,000 | | (2) Proportionate share in Net Surplus | 0.40 (200,000/500,000) | 0.60 (300,000/500,000) | | | | Net Surplus for Allocation | 240,000 | 360,000 | | 600,000 | | (30%) Statutory Fund | 72,000 | 108,000 | | 180,000 | | Amount Allocated for ISCPR (70%) | 168,000 | 252,000 | | 420,000 | | | | | |---|---|---| | ISC (70% x amount allocated for ISCPR) | 117,600 | 176,400 | 294,000 | | (3) PR (30% x amount allocated for ISCPR) | 50,400 | 75,600 | 126,000 | | (4) Rate of PR | 0.0504 | 0.0378 | 0.0441 | | Average rate of PR | | | 0.0588 | - **Rate of PR for Credit:** | | | |---|---| | Amount Allocated for PR | 50,400 | | Interest income from Loans | 1,000,000 | | Rate of PR for Credit | 0.0504 | - **Rate of PR for Labor:** | | | |---|---| | Amount Allocated for PR | 75,600 | | Salaries of Deployed Member | 2,000,000 | | Rate of PR for Labor | 0.0378 | - **Rate of ISC:** | | | |---|---| | Amount Allocated for ISC | 294,000 | | Average Share Month | | 5,000,000 | | Rate of ISC | | 0.0588 | | (5) Members | Amount of Individual Patronage | CREDIT Rate of PR | Patronage Refund | Amount of Individual Patronage | LABOR Rate of PR | Patronage Refund | Total Patronage Patronage Refund | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | A | 200,000 | .0504 | 10,080 | 300,000 | .0378 | 11,340 | 21,420 | | B | 190,000 | .0504 | 9,576 | 500,000 | .0378 | 18,900 | 28,476 | | C| 280,000 | .0504 | 14,112 | 560,000 | .0378 | 21,168 | 21,168 | | D | 330,000 | .0504 | 16,632 | | .0378 | | 14,112 | | E | | .0504 | | 640,000 | .0378 | 24,192 | 40,824 | | Total | 1,000,000 | | 50,400 | 2,000,000 | | 75,600 | 126,000 | ### Section 9.
