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
