The sessions
01 The Arm’s Length Concept: CGT, transfer pricing, GST, etc
12-1PM AEST Thursday 12th June, 2025.
Tax consequences are usually based on an expectation that transactions happen at arm’s length. In cases where they don’t, the tax legislation generally applies so that an arm’s length value can be substituted. In this session we will cover how some of these provisions apply, including implications for CGT, transfer pricing and GST.
02 GST and adjustments
12-1PM AEST Thursday 10th July, 2025.
Simple in concept, but potentially more complex in practice. Various trading terms and situations trigger GST adjustments. This session will look at different types of adjustments and examples to illustrate the GST consequences.
03 Trust elections
12-1PM AEST Thursday 14th August, 2025.
Trust elections impact the recoupment of losses, the flow of franking credits and whether a distribution or dividend is subject to Family Trust Distributions Tax. In this session, we explore the how and why of making elections, as well as the reasons for doing so and the risks of getting it wrong.
04 Tax and deceased estates
12-1PM AEST Thursday 11th September, 2025.
Death is generally not a taxing point in Australia, but there are income tax consequences which can impact the deceased, their estate, their super and their beneficiaries. This session explores the general tax consequences of death with a particular focus on CGT.
05 Tax Residence
12-1PM AEDT Thursday 9th October, 2025.
Residence and source are core concepts in the Australian tax system. This session will look at the tax residence of individuals, companies and trusts, and the tax implications that follow.
06 International Tax
12-1PM AEDT Thursday 13th November, 2025.
This session provides an overview of various international tax matters that arise from an Australian viewpoint, including: withholding taxes, foreign income tax offsets, the CFC rules, thin capitalisation, transfer pricing and Double Tax Agreements.
