Order in Council - Income Tax (Fringe Benefit Tax, Interest on Loans) Amendment Regulations 2022

The FBT rules tax non-cash benefits provided to employees. Included in the definition of ‘fringe benefit’ is any employment related loan on which the employer is charging a rate of interest that is below the market rate. The interest differential is taxable. A prescribed rate set by regulations is used as a proxy for the market rate of interest to save employers the compliance costs associated with determining the market rate relevant to loans they have provided to their employees.

LEGISLATION AND DETERMINATIONS


National Average Market Values of Specified Livestock Determination 2022

As the name of this determination suggests, NAMVs provide the national average market value for the specified livestock classes. As such they may not always reflect the market value of the livestock of a particular taxpayer, or even of a particular region. This being so, the values are not intended to be used for any other purpose than that for which they are produced; valuing livestock of taxpayers who have elected to value their livestock under the herd scheme in the income year for which the determination relates.
