2TAXATION LAW
Answer to question 1:
There are large amounts that is received by an organization would be considered as
the assessable income. Assessable income represents any sum which is received would be
treated as ordinary income given the income is earned from providing personal services,
income from the property and earnings from carrying on of the trading activities1. The
assessable income includes the amount that is specified under the income tax law as the
income. However, the assessable income does not include the amount that is stated in the
income tax law as the exempted income or the non-assessable, non-exempt income.
Assessable income comprises of receipts from the trading with the non-members and income
from the sources comprises of sources that are outside the organization.
The assessable income comprises of the ordinary income and statutory income. The
term ordinary income does not have any definition under the tax Acts. The meaning of this
concept is obtained from the case law and it is based on the principles that emerges from the
decisions2. The role of tax legislation is to take into the account the sum of ordinary income
as the taxable given the sum satisfies the criteria that is determined by the application of case
law principles. The sum would be considered in the ordinary income under the “section 6-5
of the ITAA”.
Ordinary income has been explained under “section 6-5 of the ITAA 1997”. As per
the “section 6-5”, usually most of the earnings that is earned by the taxpayer is held as
ordinary income3. The judicial concept of income as per the ordinary concepts is explained

through a case law approach. In “Scott v CT (1935)” the court held that earnings should not
be observed as the word of art and necessitates implementation of the required principles to
determine the treatment of receipts as income with respect to the ordinary concepts.
The ordinary income is included into the taxpayer’s taxable income under “section 6-
5 of the ITAA 1997”. The statutory income comprises of the assessable income because of
the actions of specific legislation that are contained in the acts. It becomes obligatory for the
“Federal Commissioner of Taxation” to represent how the legislation is applied to classify
the amount as the statutory income4. Frequently, the amount of statutory income fails to meet
the concept of ordinary income and hence it would not be treated for taxation purpose
without any particular legislation. Once the legislation has been implemented and ascertained
the sum to include into the statutory income, the sum calculated under the legislation is
included in the assessable income under the “section 6-10”.
Statutory income is income stated as the assessable income under the numerous
provisions stated in the tax assessment acts. Statutory income is taken into account before the
implementation of ordinary income as the amount that must be assessed under the specific
provision of “section 6-25 (2)”. The items of statutory income consist of income as per the
ordinary concepts that is referred as ordinary income5. As the term ordinary income is
particularly not defined by the legislation in the Act, taxpayers usually remains dependent on
the court and case law approach to explain its meaning.

4TAXATION LAW
The reconciliation rule defined under “section 6-25 (2)” explains that provided the
sum is both the ordinary and statutory income, the statutory rules of income succeeds except
there is any opposing intention prevails6. In spite of the broad intention stated under “section
15-2” there has been only a restricted role since it is applicable to a sum that are ordinary
income or the fringe benefit. Similarly, the employee share benefits is not held for taxation as
the ordinary income instead a separate statutory regime is available. On the other hand, the
numerous lump sum payments which is received by the employee for the termination of
employment particularly the redundancy payment are not treated as statutory income.
There are two situations when income is exempted from the tax assessment. First, this
includes the situation when the sum of statutory or ordinary income is obtained by the entity
that are exempted under “section 11-5 of the ITAA 1997”7. Secondly, the sum of listed
exempted income that is received by the entity is taxed under “section 11-15 of the ITAA
1997”. The concept of exempted income is defined under the “section 6-20 of the ITAA
1997”. The division 11, consists of “subsection 11-1A -11-15” comprises of lists of
exempted income that is received by the entity is assessed for taxation purpose under
“section 11-15 of the ITAA 1997”8.
As per the “section 11-15” it lists down the forms of income that are exempted from
taxation. Under “subparagraph of 23(g)(v)” of the “Tax Determination 93/190” explains
that income by society or any association that is created for community services purpose

which is not carried on for purpose of profit or gains the individual members would be
exempted from taxation9.
As evident under “section 6-23” recognizes the fourth basic income category is the
non-assessable non-exempt income, which is neither held for assessment nor it is exempted10.
This represents the class of income that is not held for assessment but is not considered as
exempted income under circumstances where the exempted income is taken into the
considerations for particular purpose namely in computing and deducting the tax losses under
the “Division 36”11. The non-assessable non-exempted income is held as untaxed income and
it is considered as if not an income. The classification of NANE was introduced during the
year 2003 to avoid any overlap between the taxable and the exempted earnings. An element
of income is only considered taxable, exempt or non-assessable non-exempt income and
hence cannot fall in greater than one category.
On noticing that the sum is not the ordinary income it is not assessed for taxation
purpose since it does not meet the conception of stated under the Australian jurisdiction12.
This is because it is not the type of income that is captured by the taxation law which is not to
assessment under “section 6-15(1)”. The income might not be particularly treated as
exempted or NANE income since it fails to satisfy the criteria of section 6-5 and section 6-10
which is not taxable.

Answer to question 2:
The reformation procedure in Australia has contributed towards the significant
flexibility of the Australian economy that has experienced continuous progress following the
Asian financial crisis in 1997-9813. The treasurer of Australia asked the review panel to take
into the account the retirement income system. The review panel highlighted the issues that it
considers to be vital in designing the retirement income system since it is related to the issue
of designs of retirement income system based on the request of the Treasurer’s letter. Later
the retirement income system was changed substantially to meet the socioeconomic
challenges because of the ageing population of Australia.
The review panel in its consultation paper have set out the challenges and
opportunities which would figure the future tax system of Australia. This includes the rise in
globalization and the evolving pattern of global economic activity14. It also includes the
changes in the patter of workforce participants and improving the procedure of policy
creation and its management. While there are challenges in opportunities that is associated to
the entire system of tax transfer, there are many that are relevant to the future income and
retirement system of Australia. Australia has supported the standards of living for the retired
particularly those that save for their retirement15. The system of retirement income has robust
association with the demographic changes. It creates an impact on the sustainability system of
retirement income and reflects the need for making sure that it attains a reasonable living
standard for the increasing amount of persons that are not anymore working.

7TAXATION LAW
The retirement income system of Australia is surrounded by three pillars with
government funded age pension is backed by superannuation guarantee and voluntary saving.
This system makes sure that the support is provided to those that are not anymore working.
The voluntary savings pillar allows the person to choose the amount they can save and
vehicle of investment in which they would save, to attain higher retirement income16. The
compulsory and voluntary pillar of savings enables individuals to self-fund the higher
retirement expenses than that is provided by the Age Pension. Under the Australian system
the age pension offers guarantee income whereas the income produced from the second and
third pillars is dependent on the sum invested and the returns yielded from such investments.
Majority of the submissions have endorsed the three pillars but several have proposed
changes namely increasing the extent of obligatory savings and changing the way the pillars
are unified. The recent change in the SG to 9 per cent signifies that the SG would impact
those that are retired17. For instance, living standard of those that are retired would improve
considerably from the transition to matured SG system after 35 years of work. On the other
hand, the average replacement rate in UK is presently 84 for those that is 20 years old making
the regular wage and retiring on attaining the suitability age of pension.
The transition to matured SG system would change the system from one where the
superannuation complements the pension age to the one that supplements the superannuation
age of pension18. Identical to the Australian pension, UK provides the taxpayer with the

funded minimum superannuation income that are characteristically uttered as the proportion
of average wages. Unlike Australia, UK has national social insurance system that provide
guaranteed retirement income and can be funded by the individual contributions and tax on
wages19. The guaranteed retirement earnings are usually an after-tax replacement of a people
prior to retirement income, depending upon the eligibility criteria namely the time in their
labor force and period of contributions. UK finance this element with the help of obligatory
defined contributions arrangements while in Australia this is done with the help of
Superannuation Guarantee.
Considering the equity of the assessment provisions in Australia the savings that are
invested in the superannuation is usually not levied at the separate depositor’s personal tax
rate. As an alternative superannuation contributions and pays is levied at the flat ratio of 15%
inside the fund20. The structure of taxation implies that the superannuation concession is
higher for the individuals on the higher personal tax rate whereas for individuals on the lower
personal tax rate that receives less allowance on their contributions.
Individuals that earn higher income is most likely to gain advantage to a large degree
from the tax exception derived from the assets that supports the superannuation earnings
streams21. As they have greater assets, they are more probable to live long on the regular basis

than the persons belonging from the lower earnings group. The tax concession provides
benefit to those that earn higher income and this can be lowered up to the extent of higher
income groups. The tax concession provides benefits to those that earn higher income but it is
reduced to a degree by the supplementary constituents of superannuation revenue system.
Conclusively, there are certain submissions that discusses the need of simplifying the
manner in which retirees interact with the system of tax transfer22. There ae some suggestions
that claim that enhancing the economic literateness of the household is vital especially in the
administration of the retirement income. The elimination of tax on the superannuation
welfares has helped in simplifying the benefits related to taxation. Additionally, taxpayers
can make both before and after tax superannuation contributions. The before tax
contributions are considered as deductible whereas the after tax contributions are not
subjected to deduction but might be considered appropriate for the government retirement
contributions.
Answer to question 3:
As stated under “section 6 of the ITAA 1936” income obtained from the individual
exertion or earnings from the private exertion denotes the income that comprises of the
earnings, salaries, wages, commissions, payments, gratuities that is received in capacity of
the employee in respect of the amenities provided or proceeds from the business23. An item of
income nature under “section 6-5 of the ITAA 1997” is obtained when it comes home to the
taxpayer.

10TAXATION LAW
In the current case it is understood that Abby is employed at a store that sells running
shoes. Abby was also paid salary during the year 2016/17 that amounted to $50,000. As held
in “Dean v FCT” the taxation commissioner held that the retention payments that was made
to the employee for being employed for a period of 12 months after the takeover was
considered as taxable income24. The sum of salary that is paid to Abby would be treated
assessable as ordinary income under the ordinary concept of “section 6-5, ITAA 1997”. The
amount was obtained from the personal effort and hence it constituted an income from the
personal exertion that attracts tax liability.
As per the ATO there are certain specific payments, grants or subsidies that an
individual receives from government would be taken into the consideration as the taxable
income. These includes the grants that is received by an individual under the apprenticeship
incentives program or the subsidies received for running the business25. As evident in the
current situation, Abby travels for the running competition and received a government grant
that amounted to $8000 for training support and covering the cost of local travel. The sum of
$8,000 that is received by the government constitute government grant and these amount
would be included for the assessment purpose.
In the later instances it is noticed that Abby reported eight receipts in the form of prize
from race across different parts of world during the income year of 2016/17. The court of law
“Moore v Griffiths (1972)” held that mere prize is not treated as earnings though it might be
treated as income given that there is a sufficient relation with the revenue producing activities

Taxation Law (CCH Australia, 2013)

11TAXATION LAW
of the taxpayer26. If a receipt is capable of being represented as the product of revenue
generating activities that might be considered as determinative of income character.
Evidently the court in “Kelly v FCT” found that the professional footballer received
award from the Channel 7 for being the fairest and the best player27. The taxation
commissioner held the amount received by the taxpayer was having the nature of income
which was related to his work and service by the club and was also associated to the
application of his skill. In another example of “FCT v Stone” the taxpayer was the
policewomen and javelin thrower that made approximately $39,000 in the form of salary with
greater than $180,000 in the form of endorsements28. The sum of prize money was assessable
because the taxpayer was found to be carrying on the business as the professional athlete and
the money was considered as income.
Similarly, in the case of Abby, it can be stated that she was carrying on the business
of professional athlete since the receipt can be represented as product of income generating
activities which should be considered as the determinative of income character. Citing the
case of “FCT v Stone” it can be stated that the Abby beside the employment, was also
carrying on the business of professional athlete and the sum will be considered as assessable
income under the ordinary concepts of “section 6-5 of the ITAA 1997”29.
As per the “taxation ruling of TR 1999/17” payments received by a person in relation
of or in association with the employment would be treated as assessable income. The

amounts will be considered taxable if the payments or the benefits that is received is in
relation of or in association with the services provided. The “taxation ruling of TR 1999/17”
explains that amount that are revenue in nature or receipts of benefits in the form of prize and
awards for carrying on the business of participating in the sport are held taxable. This is
because it results in the exploitation of personal skills in the commercial manner with the
objective of gaining reward. As evident in the current situation of Abby, she received a sum
of $10,000 for weekly TV appearance and working as commentator. Payments which is
received by the taxpayer or making a public appearance, product promotions and
endorsements given the receipt is related to the employment contract and hence taxable as
income.
As held in the case of “FC of T v Kelly” the employee of the football club obtained a
sum of $20,000 in the form of award from the unrelated party for being voted as the fairest
player all through the season30. The commissioner of taxation held that the amount was
taxable as income for the sportsperson since it was associated to their employment as the
footballer. Evidently in the case of Abby, making TV appearance and receiving a sum of
$10,000 for being a TV commentator during the year would be considered as assessable
income within the ordinary concept of “section 6-5 of the ITAA 1997”. The money received
by Abby is in relation of her making herself available for TV. Consequently, the receipts are
taxable in the hands of Abby.
Answer to question 4:
Over the last 30 years the system of Australian taxation and transfer have underwent a
continuous process of reformation in relation to the change in the policy context and the
30 Brokelind, Cécile, Principles Of Law 2015.

13TAXATION LAW
problems are recognized by using the current policy settings31. An active role has been played
by Australia at the global level to address the problems relating to climate change. During the
year 1992 Australia became the party of UNFCCC and took a large number of commitments
in agreement with its requirements. This comprises of accountability of formulating and
publishing the national programs with the measure of mitigating and facilitating the adoption
of climate change by cooperating with the parties that are in practice to lower down the
emission of the greenhouse gases32. Unlike the developed nations, Australia has undertaken
added responsibility so that it can reduce the emission and safeguard the greenhouse gas
reservoirs and sinks. Australia has signed the Kyoto Protocol to UNFCCC during 1998. The
commonwealth government has of late, reflected that it may not ratify the Kyoto Protocol
unless US is engaged in it.
On analysing the Australia’s engagement with the Kyoto Policy, it can be stated that
the policy would encourage compliance and government would prioritise to incentivise the
business behaviours33. The commonwealth has undertaken cooperative approach so that it can
meet the responsibility of Australia towards the UNCFFF. The government of Australia has
also strategized by outlining the plans to lower down the emission of greenhouse gases by
promoting community participation, exploration and education. The strategy emphasis on the
action of limiting the Australia’s greenhouse gases with respect to the requirements of Kyoto
Protocol.

According to several researchers, the cooperative agreements has several advantage
for the commonwealth parliament, provided its restricted constitutional powers in several
areas require the regulation for the application of policies relating to climate change namely
the energy and land clearing34. The Australia’s national greenhouse gases strategy proposes
the ideologies, strategies, goals and measurers in such areas. However, the national
greenhouse strategy does not create a legally binding obligations. The administration of the
NGS is executed by the higher level group of senior officials from the Territories, state and
commonwealth that are accountable for the council of Australian governments.
The agreement hardly creates any legally binding obligations. There are no guarantees
that the NGS would be applied by the states and seemingly only political pressure can be
implemented to influence the state governments so that it can take the required steps
mandated by the NGS. However, by using the cooperative approach it is feasible for the
commonwealth parliament to introduce the legislation so that it can impose the obligations
under the Kyoto Protocol35. The High Court in “Commonwealth v Tasmania and
Richardson v Forestry Commission” undertook the wide approach to interpret the powers of
external affairs under section 51 of the Australian Constitution and passed its verdict by
stating that commonwealth parliament can legislate to impose any overseas obligations that
are assumed as bona fide under foreign treaty.
The target of Australia following the ratification of Kyoto Protocol would be to
restrict its emission of greenhouse gases by 8%. However, this target would be difficult for

Australia to attain36. It is probable that Australia would remain dependent on the three
mechanism given in the Kyoto Protocol to help in attaining its target emission level. The
mechanism would encourage compliance with the Kyoto Protocol by investing in the projects
and crediting the emission reduction targets for moving towards emission reduction targets.
According to several researchers there are numerous modelling studies that proposes
to reflect that reduction in emission would result in damage to Australian economy37.
Majority of the studies are flawed fundamentally that are deprived of any actual value. They
generally presume that the price mechanism would reduce the emission, despite the fact the
majority of the energy usage is price sensitive38. Researchers have assumed that the usual
business would result in continuous expansion for wasteful usage of fossil fuels based on the
conditions that such kind of development is neither essential nor needed. Majority of the
studies have computed that only the negative economic impact of raising the prices of fuels
without making any attempt to evaluate the positive impact. Therefore, the economic
welfares of measures relating emission reduction appears to be in the identical magnitude of
cost.
Despite of the obvious distortions, majority of the model predict a minimal negative
impacts. They are unable to determine the obvious negative impact on the Australian
economy particularly in the agriculture and tourism, given the anticipated change in climate

takes place because of undermining the Kyoto protocol39. Furthermore, the researchers have
also failed to assess the economic cost of Australia being left out from the emission trading,
Joint Implementation and Clean Development Mechanism where all the measures under the
Kyoto Protocol are set up for participant nations and all the measures of Australian
companies are anticipated to yield financial profit. It appears clear that signing the Kyoto
Protocol agreement would promote compliance and would also result in more economic
benefit than damages.
The Kyoto Protocol lay down the flexibility mechanism that would allow Australia to
impose projects which would lower the emission and absorb the carbon with the help of
afforestation or reforestation activities. Kyoto Protocol mechanisms is promoting efficiency
by implementing an emission reduction project that improves the removals by sinking with
another territory on the road to meeting its own target. In summary, the quantified emission
limitation and reduction commitments under the Kyoto Protocol requires Australian to
constantly make effort towards the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions40. In spite of the
fact that Australia is not obliged to ratify the Kyoto Protocol but it is committed to
collaborate and be directed by the principles stated under UNFCCC. The emission reduction
fund would help in improving and expanding the soil carbon method. Furthermore, it would
permit the suitable activities and lower down the cost of carbon measurement.
