Consolidation of entity groups
Author(s):
Ross DOHERTY
When the Government announced in August 1998 its plan to reform the tax treatment of business entities as part of an overall tax reform plan for a new tax system, it foreshadowed the choice for groups of entities to be taxed as a single entity. This paper reviews the proposed new consolidated system, and refers to the current provisions containing concessions and anti-avoidance rules for transactions within company groups.

Entity taxation
Author(s):
Mark L ROBERTSON
The proposal that entities which offer their ultimate proprietors some limit on liabilities should be taxed in a manner akin to the taxation of companies and limited partnerships, suggested in the Ralph Review, was endorsed by the Federal Government in both its Stage 1 and Stage 2 responses to the Ralph recommendations. This paper examines the background of the entity taxation system proposals, outlines the key concepts underlying consistent entity taxation - and how they relate to one another - and defines some of the terminology that relates to entity taxation.

The profits first rule
Author(s):
David RUSSELL
The "profits first" rule had its genesis in two unrelated policy developments. The first was the abolition of the requirement of maintenance ofcapital in the Corporations Law. The second was the decision of the government to establish a common regime of taxation of all entities, which meant that entities which had never had such rules as part of their own structure (and in particular trusts) had to be fitted within a common framework. This paper examines the analysis of the entity taxation system set out in A Platform for Consultation, the 2nd Discussion Paper of the Ralph Review of Business Taxation.
