INTERPRETATION STATEMENT


IS 21/09: Income tax - foreign tax credits - how to calculate a foreign tax credit

New Zealand residents are taxed on their worldwide income. A New Zealand resident who derives assessable income from a foreign source may be entitled to a foreign tax credit for foreign income tax paid on that income. The process for calculating a foreign tax credit is set out in subpart LJ of the Income Tax Act 2007 (the Act). The purpose of subpart LJ is to prevent the double taxation of foreign-sourced income.

QUESTION WE HAVE BEEN ASKED


QB 21/11: Elections not to depreciate commercial buildings

The depreciation rate for buildings with a useful life of at least 50 years was reduced to 0% from 1 April 2011, the start of the 2012 tax year. With effect from the 2021 income year, the ability of taxpayers to claim a depreciation loss on the commercial buildings they own was reinstated, at a rate of 2% (using the diminishing value (DV) method) or 1.5% (using the straight-line (SL) method). Given this change, what are the consequences for taxpayers who elected, before the 2012 income year, to treat their commercial building as not being depreciable property and so not claim the relevant depreciation loss?
