Expanding onshore Advantages and disadvantages of acquisitions with consolidation

Author(s):  Elizabeth Allen,  Hayden BENTLEY

Ad hoc or opportunistic business growth presents a genuine opportunity to revisit a client’s existing structure(s). Where a group finds itself comprising multiple tax paying entities, it may be preferable to move towards a tax consolidated group – yes, even in the SME space! Choosing to consolidate though will naturally impact the tax considerations for continued expansion through acquisitions. This paper looks at the differences between consolidated and unconsolidated groups and the issues that arise when forming a consolidated group makes sense to meet the needs of an expanding business.

  • NALE with specific expense versus general expense nexus
  • What can a trustee do without invoking NALI
  • The ATO’s latest views on what is a contribution versus NALI (consultation draft ruling TR 2010/1-DC)
