DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In each drawing and each embodiment described in the specification, similar components are given the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will not be repeated.

[0014] (First embodiment)

[0015] (Configuration example) An example configuration of the information processing system 10 will be described below with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing an example configuration of the information processing system 10 in the present disclosure. The information processing system 10 is configured from a terminal device 20 and an information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 is connected to the terminal device 20.

[0016] The terminal device 20 includes means for acquiring information relating to the identification information of a person and information relating to the amount of temporary income that the person receives.

[0017] For example, the terminal device 20 includes a means for reading information recorded on a medium. The terminal device 20 reads a person's identification information from an identification information recording medium. The terminal device 20 also reads information on the amount of temporary income that the person will receive from an amount information recording medium. The terminal device 20 transmits the information read from the medium to the information processing device 100.

[0018] In one example, the terminal device 20 includes at least one of an NFC (Near Field Communication) reader and an optical code reader as a reading means. Note that the specific means for reading information recorded on a medium are not limited to those exemplified here, and the number of means that may be included at the same time is not limited.

[0019] The terminal device 20 may be provided with an input interface, through which at least one of the person's identification information and the amount of temporary income earned by the person may be input.

[0020] The identification information recording medium is a medium on which personal identification information is recorded. For example, the identification information recording medium records identification information that can identify a person who has received temporary income.

[0021] In one example, the identification information recording medium is a My Number card. In another example, the identification information is an electronic certificate. The identification information may be My Number information, social security number information, or user ID information for a specific service. Note that the identification information recording medium and the identification information are not limited to those exemplified here, and the number of pieces of identification information recorded on the identification information recording medium is not limited.

[0022] The amount information recording medium is a medium on which information about the amount of temporary income a person receives is recorded. For example, the amount information recording medium has recorded thereon an identifier that can identify the amount of temporary income.

[0023] In one example, the amount information recording medium is a betting ticket for a publicly managed race, and the identifier is a two-dimensional code. Note that examples of such identifiers are not limited to those exemplified here, and the number of identifiers recorded on the amount information recording medium is not limited.

[0024] The identification information recording medium and the amount information recording medium may be the same medium.

[0025] The terminal device 20 further includes a means for notifying the operator. The terminal device 20 notifies the operator based on an instruction transmitted from the information processing device 100. For example, the terminal device 20 is an electronic device equipped with a display as a means for notifying the operator. Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may include at least one of a speaker and a printing means. Note that the means by which the terminal device 20 notifies the operator are not limited to those exemplified here.

[0026] In one example, the terminal device 20 is an electronic device such as a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or a PC (Personal Computer). In another example, the terminal device 20 is an electronic device such as a payout machine for publicly managed races, a kiosk terminal, etc. Note that examples of the terminal device 20 are not limited to those exemplified here.

[0027] An example of each component of the information processing device 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the component of the information processing device 100 in the present disclosure. The information processing device 100 includes an acquisition unit 110, a recording unit 120, a calculation unit 130, a determination unit 140, and a transmission unit 150. The acquisition unit 110 acquires a person's identification information and information on the amount of temporary income. The recording unit 120 records the identification information and amount information acquired by the acquisition unit 110 in association with each other. The calculation unit 130 calculates the total amount of temporary income earned by the person. The determination unit 140 determines whether the total amount of temporary income exceeds a certain amount. If the total amount of temporary income exceeds the predetermined amount, the transmission unit 150 transmits an instruction to the terminal device 20 to display a notification.

[0028] The acquisition unit 110 acquires the identification information of a person and information on the amount of temporary income that the person has earned.

[0029] 3 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the acquisition unit 110. The acquisition unit 110 includes an identification information acquisition unit 111 and an amount information acquisition unit 112. The identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires identification information of a person. The amount information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the amount of temporary income that the person receives.

[0030] The identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires the identification information of a person. For example, the identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires the identification information of a person that the terminal device 20 reads from an identification information recording medium.

[0031] In one example, the identification information recording medium is a My Number card. The identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires the information of the electronic certificate of the My Number card that the terminal device 20 reads.

[0032] The identification information acquisition unit 111 may acquire other identification information of a person by using the identification information of the person read from the identification information recording medium by the terminal device 20. In one example, the identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires My Number information from a database (not shown) by using information on the electronic certificate of the My Number card read by the terminal device 20.

[0033] The amount information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the amount of temporary income that a person earns. For example, the amount information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the information on the amount of temporary income that a person earns, which information is read from an amount information recording medium by the terminal device 20. The amount information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the amount of income that corresponds to temporary income that a person earns, based on the information on the information on the amount of temporary income that a person earns.

[0034] In one example, the amount information recording medium is a betting ticket for a publicly managed race. In this case, the amount information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the payout amount for the betting ticket and information on the selling price of the betting ticket from a database (not shown) based on information corresponding to the code read by the terminal device 20. In one example, the database is a database that manages payout amounts for betting tickets for publicly managed races.

[0035] The amount information acquisition unit 112 may discard information about betting tickets that have been read by the terminal device 20 and for which no refund has been issued.

[0036] The amount information acquisition unit 112 may calculate and acquire the amount of temporary income by subtracting the amount paid to earn the income from the amount of income corresponding to temporary income. The calculation of the amount of temporary income may be performed by a unit other than the amount information acquisition unit 112. In one example, the amount of income corresponding to temporary income is the payout amount of a betting ticket for a public lottery, and the amount paid to earn the income is the price of the betting ticket from which the payout occurred.

[0037] The person's identification information and the information on the amount of temporary income the person has may be the same. In this case, the acquisition unit 110 acquires the information on the amount of temporary income the person has obtained by using the person's identification information as information on the amount of temporary income the person has obtained.

[0038] The recording unit 120 records the identification information and the information on the amount of temporary income in association with each other. For example, the recording unit 120 records the identification information of a person acquired by the acquisition unit 110 and the information on the amount of temporary income that the person will receive in association with each other in a storage device (not shown).

[0039] In one example, the storage device is a device provided in the information processing device 100. Note that the storage device is not limited to the example given here, as long as it is a device to which the information processing device 100 can write and read information.

[0040] The calculation unit 130 calculates the total amount of temporary income that a person will receive in a predetermined period. For example, the calculation unit 130 calculates the total amount of temporary income that a person corresponding to the identification information will receive in a predetermined period.

[0041] In one example, the predetermined period is set to be from January 1 to December 31 of the same year. Note that the predetermined period is not limited to the example given here, as long as it is a taxable period for temporary income.

[0042] The determination unit 140 determines whether the total amount of temporary income earned by a person in a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount. For example, the determination unit 140 determines whether the total amount of temporary income earned by a person in a predetermined period exceeds a limit at which a tax return does not need to be filed.

[0043] In one example, the predetermined amount is set at 500,000 yen. However, the predetermined amount is not limited to the example given here, as long as it is the maximum amount that does not require filing a tax return for temporary income.

[0044] When the total amount of temporary income earned by a person exceeds a predetermined amount, the transmission unit 150 transmits an instruction to the terminal device to issue a notification. For example, when the determination unit 140 determines that the total amount of temporary income earned by a person for a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount, the transmission unit 150 transmits an instruction to the terminal device 20 to notify the person that they need to file a tax return.

[0045] In one example, the terminal device 20 is a terminal device carried by a person. The transmission unit 150 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to notify the person that they need to file a tax return. The terminal device 20 displays the notification content based on the instruction from the transmission unit 150. The terminal device 20 may also notify by displaying a pop-up. Note that the means of notification are not limited to those exemplified here, and a combination of multiple means may be used.

[0046] In one example, the terminal device 20 is a terminal device that pays out betting tickets for publicly managed lotteries. The transmission unit 150 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to notify the person that they need to file a tax return. The terminal device 20 displays the notification content on a display based on the instruction from the transmission unit 150. The transmission unit 150 may also cause the terminal device 20 to notify the person by at least one of audio notification and printing of paper on which the notification content is printed. Note that the notification means are not limited to those exemplified here, and a combination of multiple means may be used.

[0047] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed by the terminal device 20 based on an instruction from the transmission unit 150 in the present disclosure. For example, the terminal device 20 displays a character string indicating that a person needs to file a tax return. In one example, in FIG. 4, the character string "You now need to file a tax return!" is displayed. Note that the character string indicating that a person needs to file a tax return is not limited to the example shown here.

[0048] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display the reason why a person who has earned a lump sum income needs to file a tax return. For example, when the total amount of lump sum income earned by a person over a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount, the terminal device 20 displays the details of the lump sum income earned by the person. As an example, in FIG. 4, "betting ticket refund" is displayed as the "reason." Furthermore, when the total amount of lump sum income earned by a person over a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount, the terminal device 20 may display the amount of the lump sum income earned by the person. As an example, in FIG. 4, "100,000 yen" is displayed. The terminal device 20 may also display the date and time when the total amount of lump sum income earned by a person over a predetermined period exceeded the predetermined amount. As an example, in FIG. 4, "May 26, 2024" is displayed. Note that the displayed content of the reason why a person who has earned a lump sum income needs to file a tax return is not limited to the example shown here.

[0049] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display a specific period of the predetermined period. For example, the terminal device 20 displays the tax period for temporary income. In one example, in FIG. 4, "January 1 to December 31, 2024" is displayed as the "tax period." Note that the display content of the specific period of the predetermined period is not limited to the example given here.

[0050] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a specified period. For example, the terminal device 20 displays the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a taxable period. In one example, in FIG. 4, "530,000 yen" is displayed as the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a specified period under "Total amount of temporary income during taxable period." Note that the display content of the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a specified period is not limited to the example shown here.

[0051] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display a specific amount of the predetermined amount. For example, the terminal device 20 displays the upper limit of temporary income that is exempt from taxation. In other words, the terminal device 20 can be said to display the upper limit of the total amount of temporary income for which filing a final tax return is not necessary. In one example, in Figure 4, "500,000 yen" is displayed as the "tax exemption limit" and as the specific amount of the total amount of temporary income. Note that the display content of the predetermined amount is not limited to the example given here.

[0052] If the determination unit 140 determines that the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount, the transmission unit 150 may transmit to the terminal device 20 an instruction to notify the terminal device 20 of the total amount of temporary income earned by the person during the predetermined period. Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display a specific period of the predetermined period. Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display a specific amount of the predetermined amount.

[0053] The transmitting unit 150 may transmit instructions to multiple terminal devices 20.

[0054] (Example of operation) An example of the operation of the information processing device 100 will be described below with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the information processing device 100 in the present disclosure.

[0055] First, the acquisition unit 110 acquires the identification information of a person and information on the amount of temporary income that the person will receive (S110). Specifically, the identification information acquisition unit 111 acquires the identification information of a person and information on the amount of temporary income that the person will receive, which the terminal device 20 reads from a medium.

[0056] Next, the recording unit 120 records the identification information and the information on the amount of temporary income in association with each other (S120). Specifically, the recording unit 120 records the identification information of the person acquired by the acquisition unit 110 in association with the information on the amount of temporary income earned by the person in the storage device.

[0057] Next, the calculation unit 130 calculates the total amount of temporary income that the person will receive in a predetermined period (S130). Specifically, the calculation unit 130 calculates the total amount of temporary income that the person corresponding to the identification information will receive in a predetermined period.

[0058] Next, the determination unit 140 determines whether the total amount of temporary income that the person receives exceeds a predetermined amount (S140). Specifically, the determination unit 140 determines whether the total amount of temporary income that the person receives in a predetermined period exceeds the limit at which the person does not need to file a tax return.

[0059] Next, if the total amount of temporary income obtained by the person exceeds a predetermined amount (Yes in S140), the transmitting unit 150 transmits an instruction to the terminal device 20 to send a notification to the person (S150). Specifically, if the determining unit 140 determines that the total amount of temporary income obtained by the person for a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount, the transmitting unit 150 transmits an instruction to the terminal device 20 to notify the person that they are required to file a tax return.

[0060] The information processing device 100 can reduce the possibility that a person whose total amount of temporary income earned in a predetermined period exceeds the tax-deductible limit will forget to file a tax return for the temporary income, because the information processing device 100 calculates the total amount of temporary income earned by the person in a predetermined period, and notifies the person when the total amount exceeds the amount that requires filing a tax return for the temporary income.

[0061] (Variation) A modified example of the information processing device 100 will be described. This modified example is an example of a case where the information processing device 100 transmits an instruction to make a notification to a terminal device different from the terminal device that acquired information regarding the person's identification information and the amount of temporary income the person has. This modified example may be applied to other embodiments and modified examples as well as the first embodiment, as long as no contradiction occurs.

[0062] (Configuration example) 6 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of an information processing system 10 according to the present disclosure. The information processing system 10 is configured from at least a terminal device 20, a terminal device 30, and an information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 is connected to the terminal device 20 and the terminal device 30.

[0063] The terminal device 30 includes a means for notifying the operator. The terminal device 30 notifies the operator based on an instruction transmitted from the information processing device 100. For example, the terminal device 30 is an electronic device that includes a display as a means for notifying the operator. Furthermore, the terminal device 30 may include at least one of a speaker and a printing means. Note that the means by which the terminal device 30 notifies the operator are not limited to those exemplified here.

[0064] For example, the terminal device 30 is an electronic device such as a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a PC (Personal Computer), etc. Note that the examples of the terminal device 20 are not limited to those exemplified here.

[0065] When the determination unit 140 determines that the total amount of temporary income earned by a person during a specified period exceeds a specified amount, the transmission unit 150 transmits, to at least the terminal device 30, an instruction to notify the person that they are required to file a tax return.

[0066] 7 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of transmission unit 150. Transmission unit 150 includes notification destination information acquisition unit 151 and instruction transmission unit 152. Notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires information related to the destination of the instruction to perform notification. Instruction transmission unit 152 transmits the instruction to perform notification based on the information related to the destination acquired by notification destination information acquisition unit 151.

[0067] The notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires information regarding a destination to which an instruction to notify is to be sent when the total amount of temporary income earned by a person exceeds a predetermined amount. For example, when the total amount of temporary income earned by a person exceeds a predetermined amount, the notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires information regarding a destination to which an instruction to notify that a final tax return needs to be filed, based on the person's identification information acquired by the acquisition unit 110.

[0068] In one example, the notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires information about the terminal device used by the person from a database (not shown) using the digital certificate acquired by the acquisition unit 110. Note that the information acquired by the notification destination information acquisition unit 151 regarding the destination of the instruction to send a notification is not limited to the example given here, and the number of pieces of information to be acquired is not limited.

[0069] The instruction sending unit 152 sends an instruction to send a notification based on the information on the destination of the instruction to send a notification acquired by the notification destination information acquisition unit 151. For example, the instruction sending unit 152 sends an instruction to a terminal device used by a person to notify the person that it is now necessary to file a tax return.

[0070] In one example, the terminal device 30 is a terminal device used by a person. Based on the information about the terminal device used by the person acquired by the notification destination information acquisition unit 151, the instruction sending unit 152 sends an instruction to the terminal device used by the person to notify the person that the person needs to file a tax return. The terminal device 30 displays the notification content based on the instruction sent from the instruction sending unit 152. The terminal device 30 may also notify by displaying a pop-up. Note that the means of notification are not limited to those exemplified here, and a combination of multiple means may be used.

[0071] The notification destination information acquisition unit 151 may acquire information about the person's email address, and the instruction transmission unit 152 may send the email. In this case, the content of the email may be displayed by the terminal device 30 in the same manner as the content that the terminal device 20 displays based on an instruction from the transmission unit 150, as exemplified in Fig. 4. The content of the email may also include a link that causes the terminal device 30 to display in the same manner as the content that the terminal device 20 displays based on an instruction from the transmission unit 150, as exemplified in Fig. 4.

[0072] In one example, the terminal device 30 is a terminal device used in an office that manages tax information of a person. The notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires information about the terminal device 30 to which the notification is to be sent, based on the person's identification information. Furthermore, the notification destination information acquisition unit 151 acquires the person's contact information, based on the person's identification information. The instruction sending unit 152 sends an instruction to the terminal device 30 to notify the person that they need to file a tax return. The instruction sending unit 152 may send an instruction to the terminal device 30 to notify the person by displaying a pop-up. Note that the means of notification are not limited to those exemplified here, and a combination of multiple means may be used.

[0073] In one example, the offices that manage a person's tax information include a tax office, a tax accountant's office, and the office of a governing body of a publicly managed sporting event. However, the offices that manage a person's tax information are not limited to the examples given here.

[0074] In one example, the contact information includes email address information, address information, and phone number information, but the contact information is not limited to the examples given here.

[0075] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed by the terminal device 30 based on an instruction from the transmission unit 150 in the present disclosure. For example, the terminal device 30 displays a character string indicating that it is recommended that a person contact the person that they need to file a tax return. In one example, in FIG. 8, the character string "Please contact us that you need to file a tax return!" is displayed. Note that the character string indicating that a person needs to file a tax return is not limited to the example shown here.

[0076] Furthermore, the terminal device 30 displays information identifying the person to be contacted. In one example, in FIG. 8, "Mr. / Ms. XX" is displayed as the "Name of Person to Be Contacted." The information identifying the person to be contacted may also be a My Number. In one example, in FIG. 8, "777777777777" is displayed as the "My Number of Person to Be Contacted." Note that the information identifying the person to be contacted is not limited to the example given here, and there is no limit to the number of pieces of information that can be displayed at the same time.

[0077] Furthermore, the terminal device 30 may display a contact method for the person to be contacted. In one example, "email and postal mail" is displayed as the "contact method" in FIG. 8. Furthermore, the terminal device 30 may display information necessary to contact the person using the displayed contact method. In one example, in FIG. 8, "Mr. / Ms. X's email address" and "Mr. / Ms. X's address" are displayed. Note that the contact method and the information necessary to make contact are not limited to those exemplified here, and there is no limit to the number of items that can be displayed simultaneously.

[0078] Furthermore, the terminal device 30 may display at least one of the following information: the reason why a person who has earned temporary income needs to file a tax return, the specific period of the specified period, the total amount of temporary income earned by the person during the specified period, and the specific amount of the specified amount.

[0079] By having the information processing device 100 send notifications to a terminal used in an office that manages tax information, the information can be provided to anyone who needs information about the person's tax payments, other than the person who needs to file a tax return.

[0080] (Second embodiment)

[0081] The second embodiment will be described below. This embodiment is an example of a case where an information processing device creates a plan to prevent a person from receiving temporary income for a predetermined period of time from exceeding a predetermined amount. Of the terms used in the second embodiment, those used in the first embodiment have the same meaning as those used in the first embodiment, unless otherwise specified. This embodiment may be applied to other embodiments or modified examples to the extent that no contradiction occurs.

[0082] (Configuration example) The information processing system of this embodiment includes an information processing device 200 instead of the information processing device 100 in the configuration of FIG.

[0083] 9 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of an information processing device 200 according to the present disclosure. The information processing device 200 includes an acquisition unit 210, a recording unit 220, a calculation unit 230, a determination unit 240, a plan creation unit 250, and a transmission unit 260. The acquisition unit 210 corresponds to the acquisition unit 110 in the first embodiment. The recording unit 220 corresponds to the recording unit 120. The calculation unit 230 corresponds to the calculation unit 130. The operations of the acquisition unit 210, the recording unit 220, and the calculation unit 230 are similar to those of the corresponding units in the first embodiment, and therefore detailed description thereof will be omitted here.

[0084] The acquisition unit 210 acquires the person's identification information and information on the amount of temporary income. The recording unit 220 records the identification information acquired by the acquisition unit 210 in association with the amount information. The calculation unit 230 calculates the total amount of temporary income earned by the person. The determination unit 240 determines whether the total amount of temporary income over a specified period exceeds a certain amount. Furthermore, the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income earned by the person from exceeding a specified amount. The transmission unit 260 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to make a notification based on the plan created by the plan creation unit 250.

[0085] The determination unit 240 determines whether the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far during a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount. For example, the determination unit 240 determines whether the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit 210 and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far during a predetermined period, which is recorded in a storage device (not shown), exceeds a predetermined amount.

[0086] The plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income that the person will receive in a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount. For example, when the determination unit 240 determines that the total amount of the temporary income that the person will newly receive and the total amount of temporary income that the person has received up to that point in the predetermined period will exceed a predetermined amount, the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan.

[0087] For example, the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan for how to receive temporary income. Here, the plan created by the plan creation unit 250 recommends that the person not receive all or part of the temporary income that the person will newly receive. According to the plan created by the plan creation unit 250, the total amount of temporary income that the person will receive in a specified period will not exceed a specified amount. It can also be said that the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan for how to receive temporary income that will prevent the total amount of temporary income that the person will receive in a specified period from exceeding a specified amount by receiving part of the temporary income that the person will newly receive.

[0088] In one example, the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of lump-sum income that a person will receive in a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount by having the person not refund some or all of the betting tickets for a publicly managed lottery that has generated a winning jackpot. It can also be said that the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of lump-sum income that a person will receive in a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount by having the person refund some of the betting tickets for a publicly managed lottery that has generated a winning jackpot.

[0089] In addition, when creating a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income within a specified period from exceeding a specified amount by receiving a portion of the person's newly acquired temporary income, the plan creation unit 250 may create a receiving plan that maximizes the total amount of temporary income without exceeding the specified amount.

[0090] The transmitting unit 260 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to make a notification based on the plan created by the plan creating unit 250. For example, the instructions transmitted by the transmitting unit 260 include an instruction to notify the person that receiving all of the new lump-sum income will result in the need to file a tax return. The instructions transmitted by the transmitting unit 260 also include an instruction to present information about lump-sum income that, if not received, will prevent the total amount of lump-sum income the person receives for a specified period from exceeding a specified amount.

[0091] In one example, the transmitting unit 260 transmits instructions to the terminal device 20 to notify that refunding a ballot ticket will result in the need to file a tax return, and to notify the terminal device 20 of information on ballot tickets for which a refund has been issued, and for which refunding will result in the total amount of temporary income that a person will receive over a specified period exceeding a specified amount.

[0092] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed by the terminal device 20 based on an instruction from the transmission unit 260 in the present disclosure. Note that FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a screen when the plan creation unit 250 creates a receiving plan that maximizes the total amount of temporary income without exceeding a predetermined amount. For example, the terminal device 20 displays a character string indicating that if a person receives all of the newly acquired temporary income, they will be required to file a tax return. In one example, in FIG. 10, the character string "If you refund betting tickets B and C, you will need to file a tax return!" is displayed. Note that the character string indicating that if a person receives all of the newly acquired temporary income, they will be required to file a tax return is not limited to the example shown here.

[0093] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display information about the person's new temporary income. For example, the terminal device 20 displays the identifier of the person's new temporary income. In one example, in FIG. 10, "Ballot A," "Ballot B," "Ballot C," and "Ballot D" are displayed. Furthermore, the terminal device 20 displays information about the amount of the person's new temporary income. In one example, in FIG. 10, it is displayed that the payout amount for "Ballot A" is "190,000 yen," the payout amount for "Ballot B" is "40,000 yen," the payout amount for "Ballot C" is "20,000 yen," and the payout amount for "Ballot D" is "5,000 yen." Note that the information about the person's new temporary income is not limited to the example shown here, and the number of items displayed at the same time is not limited.

[0094] In addition, the terminal device 20 may display, as information about a person's newly acquired temporary income, information about income that corresponds to temporary income in which the total amount of temporary income earned by the person for a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount by not making a refund, in a manner different from information about other temporary income. As an example, "Ballot ticket B" and "Ballot ticket C" in Figure 10 are income that corresponds to such temporary income.

[0095] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display information about the total amount of lump-sum income that the person will newly acquire. In one example, in FIG. 10, "255,000 yen" is displayed as the "total refund amount this time." Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display information about the total amount of lump-sum income that the person will acquire over a specified period if the person receives all of the newly acquired lump-sum income. In one example, in FIG. 10, "555,000 yen" is displayed as the "total lump-sum income amount if betting tickets B and C are refunded." Note that the information about the amount of the newly acquired lump-sum income that the person will acquire is not limited to the example given here, and the number of lump-sum incomes that can be displayed at the same time is not limited.

[0096] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display information about the total amount of lump-sum income that a person will receive if they receive a portion of their newly acquired lump-sum income. In one example, in FIG. 10, "195,000 yen" is displayed as the "total refund amount excluding betting tickets B and C." Furthermore, the terminal device 20 may display information about the total amount of lump-sum income that a person will receive for a specified period if they receive a portion of their newly acquired lump-sum income. In one example, in FIG. 10, "495,000 yen" is displayed as the "total lump-sum income amount if betting tickets B and C are not refunded." Note that the information about the total amount of lump-sum income that a person will receive if they receive a portion of their newly acquired lump-sum income is not limited to the example shown here, and the number of items displayed at the same time is not limited.

[0097] The terminal device 20 may display only information about the temporary income that a person will newly receive, which will not be refunded so that the total amount of temporary income that the person will receive in a predetermined period will not exceed a predetermined amount. In one example, "Ballot ticket B" and "Ballot ticket C" in Figure 10 are such temporary income.

[0098] The terminal device 20 may display only information about the temporary income that a person will newly acquire, such that even if a refund is made, the total amount of temporary income that the person will acquire over a predetermined period of time will not exceed a predetermined amount. As an example, "Ballot ticket A" and "Ballot ticket D" in Figure 10 are such temporary income.

[0099] (Example of operation) An example of the operation of the information processing device 200 will be described below with reference to Fig. 11. Fig. 11 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the information processing device 200 in the present disclosure. Note that the operations of S210, S220, and S230 are similar to the operations of S110, S120, and S130 in the first embodiment, and therefore description thereof will be omitted here.

[0100] The determination unit 240 determines whether the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far during a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount (S240). Specifically, the determination unit 240 determines whether the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit 210 and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far during a predetermined period, which is recorded in a storage device (not shown), exceeds a predetermined amount.

[0101] If it is determined that the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far during a predetermined period exceeds a predetermined amount (Yes in S240), the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income for the predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount (S250). Specifically, if it is determined that the sum of the amount of temporary income that the person will newly acquire and the total amount of temporary income that the person has acquired so far exceeds a predetermined amount, the plan creation unit 250 creates a plan. The plan creation unit 250 creates a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income that the person will acquire so far during a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount.

[0102] Next, the transmitting unit 260 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to provide a notification based on the plan created by the plan creating unit 250 (S260). Specifically, the transmitting unit 260 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction including an instruction to provide a notification that receiving all of the new temporary income that the person will receive will result in the need to file a tax return. The instruction transmitted by the transmitting unit 260 also includes an instruction to present information about income that corresponds to temporary income that, if not received, will prevent the total amount of temporary income that the person receives for a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount.

[0103] The information processing device 200 can present to the person a method of receiving temporary income that eliminates the need to file a tax return, because the information processing device 200 creates a plan to ensure that the amount of temporary income the person receives in a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount, and causes the terminal device to display information based on the plan.

[0104] (Third embodiment) The third embodiment will be described below. This embodiment is an example of a case where an information processing device creates a plan to prevent the total amount of temporary income earned by a person over a predetermined period from exceeding a predetermined amount, and accepts a selection from the person as to how to receive the temporary income. This embodiment is also an example of a case where an information processing device performs part or all of the function of paying money corresponding to temporary income to a person. Note that, among the terms used in the third embodiment, the terms used in the first and second embodiments have the same meanings as those used in the first and second embodiments, unless otherwise specified.

[0105] (Configuration example) The information processing system of this embodiment includes an information processing device 300 instead of the information processing device 100 in the configuration of FIG.

[0106] 12 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of an information processing device 300 according to the present disclosure. The information processing device 300 includes an acquisition unit 310, a recording unit 320, a calculation unit 330, a determination unit 340, a plan creation unit 350, a transmission unit 360, and a withdrawal instruction transmission unit 370. The acquisition unit 310 corresponds to the acquisition unit 210 according to the second embodiment. The recording unit 320 corresponds to the recording unit 220. The calculation unit 330 corresponds to the calculation unit 230. The determination unit 340 corresponds to the determination unit 240. The plan creation unit 350 corresponds to the plan creation unit 250. The operations of the acquisition unit 310, the recording unit 320, the calculation unit 330, the determination unit 340, and the plan creation unit 350 are similar to those of the corresponding units according to the second embodiment, and therefore will not be described in detail here.

[0107] The acquisition unit 310 acquires the person's identification information and information on the amount of temporary income. The recording unit 320 records the identification information acquired by the acquisition unit 210 in association with the amount information. The calculation unit 330 calculates the total amount of temporary income earned by the person. The determination unit 340 determines whether the total amount of temporary income over a specified period exceeds a certain amount. Furthermore, the plan creation unit 350 creates a plan to ensure that the total amount of temporary income earned by the person does not exceed a specified amount. The transmission unit 360 transmits to the terminal device 20 an instruction to issue a notification based on the plan created by the plan creation unit 350. Furthermore, the refund instruction transmission unit 370 executes a refund process corresponding to the method of receiving the temporary income selected by the operator of the terminal device 20.

[0108] The transmitting unit 360 transmits to the terminal device 20 a notification based on the plan created by the plan creating unit 350 and an instruction to display a message to accept a selection of how to receive the lump-sum income. For example, the instructions transmitted by the transmitting unit 360 include the same instructions as those transmitted by the transmitting unit 260. The instructions transmitted by the transmitting unit 360 also include an instruction to display a message to accept a selection of how to receive income corresponding to lump-sum income, in which the total amount of lump-sum income earned by a person in a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount.

[0109] In one example, the instructions transmitted by the transmission unit 360 to the terminal device 20 include an instruction to display a button to accept the refund of betting tickets other than those for which the total amount of temporary income that a person will obtain over a predetermined period of time will exceed a predetermined amount if a refund is made. Also, the instructions transmitted by the transmission unit 360 to the terminal device 20 include an instruction to display a button to accept the refund of all betting tickets. Note that the display that accepts a person's selection of the refund method is not limited to a button.

[0110] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed by the terminal device 20 in the present disclosure based on instructions from the transmission unit 360, using a betting ticket for a publicly managed race as an example. For example, the terminal device 20 displays a button. When received, the button accepts receipt of income equivalent to temporary income other than income in which the total amount of temporary income earned by a person over a specified period exceeds a specified amount. In one example, FIG. 13 displays a button containing the text "Refund betting tickets other than betting tickets B and C." Note that the form of the button for accepting receipt of income equivalent to temporary income other than income in which the total amount of temporary income earned by a person exceeds a specified amount is not limited to the example shown here.

[0111] Furthermore, the terminal device 20 displays a button for accepting the receipt of all income equivalent to temporary income. In one example, in Fig. 13, a button including the text "Refund all betting tickets" is displayed. Note that the form of the button for accepting the receipt of all income equivalent to temporary income is not limited to the example shown here.

[0112] When the display for accepting the selection of how to receive income equivalent to temporary income is selected by the operator of the terminal device 20, the corresponding payment process is carried out. For example, when the operator of the terminal device 20 touches a button in Fig. 13, the refund process corresponding to the button is carried out. Note that the selection action may be the pressing of a physical button provided on the terminal device 20, and is not limited to the example shown here.

[0113] The refund instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to execute a refund process corresponding to the method of receiving the temporary income accepted by the terminal device 20. For example, the refund instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to execute a payment process corresponding to the method of receiving the temporary income selected by the operator of the terminal device 20.

[0114] In one example, the payout instruction sending unit 370 processes the payout of betting tickets based on the payout method selected by the operator of the terminal device 20. If the terminal device 20 is a device that has the function of making payouts for publicly managed races, the payout instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to make a payout to the terminal device 20. If the terminal device 20 is a device that does not have the function of making a payout, the payout instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to a deposit system (not shown) to make a payout to the account of the person receiving the payout.

[0115] In addition, when the operator of the terminal device 20 selects a method of receiving a portion of the person's newly acquired temporary income and a payment is made, the recording unit 320 may record information about the temporary income that was actually paid as information about the temporary income that the person earned within a specified period.

[0116] In addition, if the determination unit 340 determines that the total amount of the person's new temporary income and the total amount of temporary income the person has earned so far during a specified period does not exceed a specified amount, the transmission unit 360 may transmit an instruction to display a message accepting the refund of the betting ticket.

[0117] (Example of operation) An example of the operation of the information processing device 300 will be described below with reference to Fig. 14. Note that the operations of S310, S320, S330, S340, and S350 are similar to the operations of S210, S220, S230, S240, and S250 in the second embodiment, and therefore will not be described here.

[0118] The transmitting unit 360 transmits to the terminal device 20 a notification based on the plan created by the plan creating unit 350 and an instruction to display a message to accept a selection of how to receive the temporary income (S360). Specifically, the transmitting unit 360 transmits an instruction similar to the instruction transmitted by the transmitting unit 260, as well as an instruction to display a message to accept a selection of how to receive the income corresponding to the temporary income, such that the total amount of temporary income obtained by the person in a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount.

[0119] The refund instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to execute a refund process corresponding to the method of receiving the temporary income accepted by the terminal device 20 (S370). Specifically, the refund instruction sending unit 370 sends an instruction to execute a payment process corresponding to the method of receiving the temporary income selected by the operator of the terminal device 20.

[0120] When making a payment of temporary income, the information processing device 300 can present the person with ways to receive the temporary income that will eliminate the need to file a tax return, because the information processing device 300 causes the terminal device to display a screen that allows the person to select how to receive the temporary income based on a plan that ensures that the amount of temporary income the person receives in a predetermined period does not exceed a predetermined amount.

[0121] (Hardware configuration) The procedures described in the above embodiments can be implemented by a program that causes a computer functioning as the information processing devices 100, 200, and 300 to implement the functions of the information processing devices 100, 200, and 300. Fig. 15 is a block diagram showing an example of the hardware configuration of a computer device 400 that implements the information processing devices 100, 200, and 300 according to the present disclosure.
