Syllabus
This unit builds proficiency in Australian taxation law. You will consider the competing tax implications of various legal entities: sole traders, partnerships, trusts and companies and their impact on choice of investment/business structure in the context of providing advice to clients. The employee/contractor distinction is also explored, as are the tax implications of superannuation. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of how international taxation rules impact cross-border transactions, and relevant capital gains tax topics impacting business transactions, including the small business CGT concessions. You will compare the tax implications of different business structures and make suitable recommendations from a taxation point of view. Finally, you will compare, analyse and recommend taxation strategies to develop comprehensive client solutions.
