GST margin scheme for property developers: eligibility, calculation and whether it is worth it

Farm Succession Tax Traps: Livestock, Trust Entitlements, GST and WA Duty

Livestock is trading stock. If you sell the livestock as part of a restructure, it is treated as a sale at market value under section 70-90. For Glenmore's ewes, lambs, rams and wethers, that substitutes approximately $5 million of market-value proceeds. Compared with the $1.1 million tax value, that can create an additional taxable uplift of roughly $3.9 million while the sheep remain in the same paddocks and no external cash is received.

Moving a Farming Business into a Company: Which Tax Rollover Fits?

Moving the farm into a company sounds like one transfer. The tax law sees several. Land is a CGT asset. Grain and standing crops are trading stock. Machinery sits under the depreciation rules.

Employee Equity, Management Buy-Ins and Succession Plans for Perth Private Companies

There are three main ways a Perth private company gives key people a real stake: the start-up tax concessions for younger companies, the loan-funded buy-in for established ones, and a set of alternatives for founders, contractors and family offices. Which one fits depends on your company's age, size and ownership, and every one of them is decided on the day the documents are signed.
