What the Income Tax Assessment Act is about
Your income tax is based on your taxable income, so how do you calculate your taxable income?
Income according to ordinary concepts - a closer examination
Income According to Accountants (not so ordinary) concepts
Statutory Income - a closer examination
Exempt income is excluded from assessable income
Turn assessable income into taxable income by deducting your deductions (generally speaking)
Deductions you can not claim - capital, private and domestic
Sometimes you are allowed a deduction for capital expenditure
Some deductions you can claim under specific sections of the Assessment Act
Once you have worked out the tax payable on taxable income, you can reduce it by the allowable offsets
