Access to the lower Corporate tax rate: The new 'Passive Income Test'. Sep 6, 2018

Access to the lower Corporate tax rate: The new 'Passive Income Test'.

The Treasury Laws Amendment (Enterprise Tax Plan Base Rate Entities) Bill 2018 received royal assent on the 31 August 2018. These new laws further restrict which companies will be able to apply the lower tax rate of 27.5%.

The new laws, replace the carrying on a business test with a base rate entity passive income (BREPI) test. This will mean companies with mainly passive income will be ineligible for the lower rates of tax. A company will pass the BREPI test if no more than 80% of the entity’s assessable income for the year is BREPI.

Does this apply to your company?
