• The “Balance Sheet Approach”
Home-country groups of expenses—income
taxes, housing, goods and services, and
discretionary expenses—are the focus of attention.
The employer estimates what each of these four
expenses is in the expatriate’s home country, and
what each will be in the host country.
The employer then pays any differences such as
additional income taxes or housing expenses.
