               ISSUES IN TAXATION OF DIGITAL ASSETS
      International Taxation & Sourcing 
        
         Existing tax law developed primarily in a market of physical goods and in 
         – person services and today, services are increasingly being provided 
         digitally with minimal human intervention, through computer servers 
         instead of physical distribution chains.
        
         The questions that this creates are;
          • What is the Character of the income & how its taxed? ( royalty , rent or sale)
          • Who earned the income and where was it earned/sourced? (Location affects how 
           and where income is taxed under the source and PE principles. 
          • What is the machinery’s role in source rules? Is the place of performance of a 
           service the same as the server’s location? Can the source of the service be partly 
           in country X and part from the server’s location?
          • How should income be allocated between humans and machines in the supply 
           chain
          • Does it matter that a person in Country X programmed machines that are located 
           in country Y?
          • What impact do outsourced services have on place of performance?
