Ethanol will have new rates of today May 1 As a way to balance federal taxes in similar products. With the change, the water and the skilled will be the same as the PIS/COFINS tax, which will be R $ 0.19 per liter. Despite the contrast, the effects of the consumer must be hidden, as evaluated by the economist at Bario Tito Almeida.
According to Union Pará, the contrast is about $ 0.05 per liter. Water ethanol – which consists of alcohol and water, and more used directly on the Brazilian compounds – will have a decrease in the fare and will not be charged with $ 0.2418 per liter. The anitage ethanol, mixed with gasoline, will move from $ 0.1390 RATR to the value of the new rate.
Mário Tito Almeida explains that alignment of ethanol prices is linked to “Monofasia”, which consists of setting a single tax range of similar products, as it suggested the regulation of tax reform. From the perspective of the economist in Barra, it will be the largest impact from a financial point of view.

“I think this procedure, instead of generating a direct benefit to the final consumer, will adjust tax ranges, so it regularly improves tax payment so that there is no difference between very similar products,” says Barra.
Union-PA unions indicate that federal taxes represent only part of the costs included in the final fuel price. “Ethnol is what is added to gasoline (by 27 %) and is not sold directly in jobs. What is marketed to the final consumer is aqueous ethanol. Therefore, there is a slight decrease in the price of ethanol sold to consumers, which makes it more competitive compared to gasoline. It constitutes the final price.”
On the other hand, says Pietro Gasparetto, the legal representative of the Pará Fuels Union, says that despite the attempt to measure, the increase in the rate may have an impact on the final prices. Today, 27 % of gasoline consists of ethanol, and there are expectations 30 % increaseWith justification that this would reduce the final price. However, with increased federal taxes, this height may eventually lead to an increase in the value of gasoline “,” Bingers Gasparetto.
Despite expectations, it is not possible after determining how the market reacts to the change. “It is also important to highlight that there is no specific date, and the consumer should not be reduced at the same level. Any statement that the price in the bombs will decrease exactly” X “is a light cint, as several factors affect fuel prices,” adds Pietro Gasparetto.
Another important point is the production of ethanol, which may be during the periods of sugar cane in its season, which is a raw material used in biofuels, price changes. “Ethanol is a commodity, and price differences depend on several factors, such as harvesting, fuel price, sugar in the international market, shipping value and ICMS,” confirming the Palestinian Authority unions.
