We have summarised the key points from the 2020-2021 budget, that we believe will have the most impact on our clients.
Please keep in mind that all budget measures are proposals and will require the passage of legislation to become effective.
The business measures announced in last night's Federal Budget will help promote the investment in Small-Medium Enterprises (SMEs).
Here at the key summaries of the announcements:
For those businesses with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $50 million will be allowed an immediate write-off on any eligible asset (new and second hand) purchases after 7.30pm on 6 October 2020 and before 01 July 2022. Any business that exceeds the $50million turnover will only receive the immediate write-off on eligible new business assets.
The measure will provide significant help for struggling businesses making current year losses. Any tax paid in respect of a previous year will be refunded to the taxpayer. The constraints on this announcement are;
The JobMaker Plan is designed to boost economic growth, create jobs, invest in future industries and skills, remove red tape, guarantee essential services and restore confidence in a stronger recovery. One of the measures of JobMaker is 'Supporting Australian's back into jobs', by incentivising businesses to take on additional employees aged between 16 and 35 years old. Around 450,000 positions for young Australians will be supported through JobMaker Hiring Credits.
The Government is investing an additional $2 billion through the Research and Development Tax Incentive to help innovative businesses that invest in research and development (R&D).
Small claimants (annual turnover less than $20 million)
Larger claimants (annual turnover of $20 million or more)
All Claimants
These measures are aimed at encouraging business to invest in their future and to help generate employment.
The access to prior year profits when losses are generated will help provide additional working capital for businesses to assist with future cashflows and investment.
