Welcome to MYOB Tax 2021

What's new in Tax 2021

• Temporary full expensing: Businesses with an aggregated turnover of less than $5 billion can immediately deduct the business portion of the cost of eligible new depreciating assets. Corporate tax entities unable to meet the $5 billion turnover test may still be eligible for temporary full expensing under the alternative income test. .

• Backing business investment and enhanced Instant Asset Write Off: In March 2020, as part of the Government’s Coronavirus economic response package, two stimulus measures were introduced to promote business investment in assets and support the economy and jobs.
• Choosing the right depreciation incentive: The government introduced the depreciation incentives to recover from the impact of COVID-19, and find out which is correct for your client.
• Applying 2021 changes to depreciation in tax
• New Exemption /Rollover code added to Item 18 - Capital gains to cater for Additional Housing Discount.
• Reporting aggregated turnover: Taxpayers will report their aggregated turnover by selecting their turnover range.
• Loss carry back offset (company returns): Eligible corporate entities can offset their tax losses against previous tax liabilities through a refundable tax offset.
