Technical requirements (including software) for accessing ATO’s online services through Business Portal
One can access ATO’s Online Services through Business Portal by using any of the following methods :-
1. myGovID and Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM) - available for eligible businesses to use
2. AUSkey
3. Manage ABN Connections (your ABN connected to your myGov account)
Assessment Task 1 Part A
Part A -1 Relevant Taxation Legislation and Regulations from:-
1. Tax Agent Services Act 2009 (TASA 2009) –
Objective of the Act:-
The object of this Act is to ensure that tax agent services are provided to the public in accordance with appropriate standards o
f professional and ethical conduct. This is to be achieved by (among other things):
-establishing a national Board to register tax agents, BAS agents and tax (financial) advisers; and
-introducing a Code of Professional Conduct for registered tax agents, BAS agents and tax (financial) advisers; and
-providing for sanctions to discipline registered tax agents, BAS agents and tax (financial) advisers.
Why the Tax Agent, BAS Agents and Tax (Financial) Advisers should be registered?
· A registered Tax Agent is liable to adhere to following “The Code of Professional Conduct” which safeguards the interest of the clients:-
· Honesty & Integrity
· Independence
· Confidentiality
· Competence
· Other Responsibilities
· Under the ‘safe harbour’ provisions administered by the ATO, client will not be liable for penalties in certain circumstances, if the client engaged a registered practitioner. However, the client will not be entitled to any ‘safe harbour’ protection if he/she engaged an unregistered practitioner.
2. Fringe Benefits Tax Assessment Act 1986
What is Fringe Benefit Tax?
Fringe Benefit Tax is a tax payable by an employer in respect of perquisites or fringe benefits provided or deemed to have been provided by the employer to his employees in addition to the cash salary or wages paid during the year.
How is Fringe Benefit Tax calculated?
First of all, Fringe Benefit Taxable amount is calculated.
Fringe Benefits for which the employer can take GST Input Tax Credit are multiplied with Type 1 gross-up rate i.e. 2.0802 and Fringe Benefits for which the employer can’t take the GST Input Tax Credit are multiplied with Type 2 gross up rate i.e. 1.8868.
Then the outcomes obtained after the above-mentioned procedure are added. This is our Fringe Benefit Taxable Amount.
This amount is multiplied by the FBT Rate i.e. 47% and we get the Fringe Benefit Tax Liability.
3. Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992
The Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (SGAA) was introduced by the Government on 1 July 1992 to ensure that most employees receive superannuation support from their employer.
The legislation provides that employers must provide at least a set minimum amount of superannuation support for their employees. If an employer fails to pay the minimum amount of superannuation, they may have to pay a Superannuation Guarantee Charge to the Australian Tax Office.
Superannuation Guarantee minimum is a fixed percentage of eligible salary. For the year 2019-20, superannuation guarantee minimum has been set to 9.5%.
4. Superannuation Guarantee Charge Act 1992
The Superannuation Guarantee (SG) Scheme, administered by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), requires all employers to provide a prescribed minimum level of superannuation support for each of their employees, subject to limited exemptions.
This Act comes into play where employers fail to provide the prescribed level of minimum support and through the provisions of this Act, they are made liable to a SG Charge equivalent to the amount of the superannuation not contributed (the 'shortfall') plus an interest component and an administrative charge.
Employer contributions to a complying superannuation fund (or retirement savings account) for the benefit of employees are generally tax deductible, but the SG Charge is not as it is Penal in nature.
5. A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999
This act is about Goods and Service Tax. Whenever any Goods or Services are supplied, they are subjected to GST, if the supplier is registered under this Act.
The entity which is also registered under GST can take benefit of the GST paid on the purchases by claiming Input Tax Credit.
General Rules

· GST and input tax credits
1. GST is payable on taxable supplies and taxable importations.
2. Entitlements to input tax credits arise on creditable acquisitions and creditable importations.
· Net amounts
Amounts of GST and amounts of input tax credits are set off against each other to produce a net amount for a tax period (which may be altered to take account of adjustments).
· Tax periods
Every entity that is registered, or required to be registered, has tax periods applying to it.
· Payments and refunds
The amount assessed as being the net amount for a tax period is the amount that the entity must pay to the Commonwealth, or the Commonwealth must refund to the entity, in respect of the period.
6. Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
There are specific provisions in Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that relate to GST.
Division 17 of this Act i.e. “Effect of GST etc. on assessable income” revolves around GST.
Below are some of the GST Effects as laid down in this Act-
GST and increasing adjustment
An amount is not assessable income, and is not *exempt income, to the extent that it includes an amount relating to:
                     (a)  GST payable on a taxable supply; or
                     (b)  an increasing adjustment that relates to a *supply; or
                     (c)  an increasing adjustment that:
                              (i)  relates to an *acquisition; and
                             (ii)  arises in circumstances that also give rise to a *recoupment that is included in assessable income.
Certain decreasing adjustments
(1)  An amount of a decreasing adjustment that arises under Division 129 or 132 of the GST Act is assessable income, unless the entity that has the adjustment is an exempt entity.
             (2)  However, the amount is not assessable income to the extent that, because it becomes a component of a *net input tax credit, a reduction is made under section 10330 (reduction of cost base etc. by net input tax credits).

7. Income Tax Assessment Act 1936
An Act to consolidate and amend the law relating to the imposition assessment and collection of a tax upon incomes. The act is gradually being rewritten into the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and new matters are generally now added to the 1997 act.
8. Taxation Administration Act 1953
An Act to provide for the...
