Hi,
Me again, always got questions!
bought a new rental property on 07/06/10,incurred leagal fees, insurance and interests on loan, but haven't rented it out for income purpose. Is it possible to cla ...

Hi, is it available for rent? if you have been trying to lease out the property, i.e put out ads, engaging in real estate agents, but was unlucky in obtaining an tenant. then yes, you can claim rental losses for interest, insurance, etc etc. considering the vacancy rate in australia at the moment, this seems very unlikely.

2. you work at home for your partnership - business claim under partnership return

请问这个是在个人退税etax里面的哪一项？我怎么没有找到？麻烦指点一下？难道要用partnership的TFN单独搞一个business tax return？先谢谢了

partnership本身不用报税，搞不懂partnership的tfn是干啥用的。

well you do need to lodge a tax return, the return will contain the business information/performance. ATO can then audit the partnership based on the information declared.
partnership just doesn't have to pay any taxes.

请教LZ~

听说买新车贷款可以抵税，可是不知道怎么抵。例如，我们买的新车的价格是3万，贷款1年，利率15%。那我一年后除了要付清3万的本金外，还要付利息。

在年底报税的时候，是只有利息可以抵税，还是本金加利息的支出都可以抵税？

谢谢！~

Hi David,

如果洗碗机。空调都是分别在2003，2006年买的，以前自己用，现在房子租出去了，这些东西可以折旧吗？

if you have a quantity surveyor prepare a depreciation report for you, these items will normally be included in the report. however, dishwasher was purchased 7 years ago, there is hardly any depreciation left. with air conditioner, an accountant will be able to estimate the residual value if you have the original purchase price and date. let's say air conditioner has a depreciation rate of 10% a year, based on the purchase date, you calculate what's left of the asset as at april this year.

David, 麻烦你一个问题

2008年1月买了一个电视$2273,是用在office的,一直用到现在,当时是用simplified tax system 放在general small business pool里了,09-10是不是还是按30%折旧就行了,还有如果09-10还买了车或者别的超过1000元的office equipment的话,是不是还可以放在这个pool 里,第一年折15%,以后折30%,谢谢

还有如果低于300的就可以直接write off了,是吧,谢谢

我有一个小生意，新开的，自己用myob做账。我想问一下你说的小生意报税的时候需要账本明细账，能给点详细的内容吗？ 是用myob打出来的report吗？如果是的话，具体是哪些report呢？ 不好意思，我是菜鸟，先谢谢你的帮助

我的第二个问题是，我从bunnings买了一些木头白板用来做墙上的架子，数额一共700元以下吧，这些都要算做固定资产吗？还有一些50到100元左右桌子椅子，这些都要算作固定资产吗，那我每个提折旧还不累死了。。。。

我的第二个问题 ...

assuming you are using MYOB correctly, you can obtain a profit & loss report in MYOB by:

click on reports on the top menu bar, then index to reports, then profit & loss statement, type in the period e.g 01/07/09 to 30/06/10. the report can be the basis for your tax return

These purchases can be claimed all in one year if you are a small business and elect to enter the SBE system. no need to depreciate them.
