Breakfast Club: The Going Concern
Published on 17 Apr 2003 | Took place at Leonda by the Yarra, Hawthorn, VIC
As property transactions by clients, and the GST position, continue to form a significant part of ongoing tax advice, a clear understanding of the Going Concern exemption, and the ATO's interpretation of that exemption, are obviously an essential part of the advisers tool box. Of particular note is GSTR 2002/5 and issues raised by the ATO's interpretation of the Going Concern exemption.
