Spanish term or phrase: Recuperabilidad de las Bases imponibles activadas
This is the heading in an annual accounts report. The text then goes on to say "La sociedad activa el importe de las Bases Imponibles negativas en función de las expectativas de recuperación futuras, bajo un periodo prudente de recuperación estimado en no más de 10 años, en este sentido, la Sociedad ha elaborado un presupuesto para futuros ejercicios en el que estima que el resultado de explotación de la Sociedad (EBITDA), siguiendo un principio de prudencia, la Dirección ha optado por no activar Bases imponibles negativas por importe alguno, pese a contar con contratos de mantenimiento que argumentan la posibilidad de recuperación de las mismas"

Any help would be much appreciated.

English translation:recoverability of the tax credits associated with net operating loss carryforwards
Explanation:
Asker's text does not clarify the concept of 'activación', from which derives the adjective 'activadas'

Most documents in the internet relate the said concept to the tax credits underlying loss carryforwards. See below



La generación de bases imponibles negativas supone la aparición de créditos fiscales, ya que en el futuro permitirán tener una menor carga fiscal del Impuesto sobre Sociedades, traduciéndose en la disminución del resultado negativo que lucirá en balance al cierre del ejercicio, por lo que es indudable que su registro contable es muy atractivo ya que presenta efectos beneficiosos sobre el patrimonio contable.

El tratamiento contable de la situación anterior presenta límites. En este sentido, la NRV 13ª del Impuesto sobre Beneficios, en el apartado 2.3, señala:

“De acuerdo con el principio de prudencia solo se reconocerán activos por impuesto diferido en la medida en que resulte probable que la empresa disponga de ganancias fiscales futuras que permitan la aplicación de estos activos.

'Activadas' means 'Activación de los créditos fiscales de bases imponibles negativas'. This means that it is the tax credits that are activated. Hence the following:

Erratum: recoverability of the ACTIVATED tax credits associated with net operating loss carryforwards instead of 'recoverability of the tax credits associated with net operating loss carryforwards'

Recoupability of capitalis/zed Tax Base carry-over, carry-across or carry-back reliefs


Explanation:
The question omits the words 'del' monto and 'negativas' from the passage quoted, nor - despite the reference to 'para futuros ejercicios and as ProZ accountants ought to know - are the 'Tax Bases' tied down to the future of carry-(-)forward, so carry-across releifs in the same tax year or carry-backs to previous years.

To touch 'all unknown bases', it might also be an idea to re-incoporate the misnomer of Base imponible vs. pérdida fiscal https://tureng.com/en/spanish-english/pérdida fiscal






Example sentence(s):
  • carry-over. (in U.S. income-tax law) a special provision allowing part of a net loss or of an unused credit (UK : tax *relief*) in a given year to be apportioned over one or two subsequent years, chiefly in order to ease the tax burden.
  • The loss carry back tax offset essentially allows eligible corporate entities to 'carry back' tax losses in their 2021 and 2022 tax returns

  -> A logical fallacy - I used recoupability (and clawback) only to contrast with the term of recoverability and is used in a far wider internat. context than of investments-only:.. 'recoupability of the tax credit' https://cineuropa.org/en/newsdetail/150350/

  -> Thanks!

neutral  Adrian MM.: this 'net operating loss' and (non-child) tax credits translation is usable for US AmE consumption-only whereas the asker seems to have more of a British connection. Upshot: this turn of phrase would be non-standard & puzzling in BrE, even in the City.
