The Tasmanian State Council of The Tax Institute and the Tasmanian Convention Organising Committee warmly invite you to attend our 2018 Tasmanian State Convention. The Tasmanian State Convention remains the state’s premier taxation event. Once again, we have a line-up of outstanding speakers who will present on a range of topics we consider are relevant to Tasmanian tax practitioners and will provide a good understanding of the current issues.

This year the technical program covers a broad range of tax issues that we as advisers are confronted with. As in recent years, there is an emphasis on the practical, including looking at the reduction of the corporate tax rate, breaches in self-managed superannuation funds, small business restructuring and use of company losses.

This year the pre-convention workshop, which gives a hands-on start to the two days, focuses on Div 7A. Ron Jorgensen, CTA, will explore the current Div 7A landscape.

We hope that you will take advantage of the ample time for networking with the convention dinner being held at the Cornelian Bay Boat House Restaurant, situated on the water’s edge on Cornelian Bay, just five minutes from Hobart’s city centre. The venue has a breathtaking view of the bay, the Tasman Bridge and the charming heritage-listed boat sheds.

The Tax Institute wishes to acknowledge and thank our speakers, organising committee members and, in particular, our Tax Institute team members, for their significant efforts in making this convention the success that it promises to be.

I commend the program to you and look forward to seeing you at the convention.

Thank you

Technical program

Division 7A pre-workshop – Thursday, 18 October 2018

Time Session Presenter

9.30–10.00am Pre-workshop registration

10.00–12.00pm Pre-workshop: Management of Division 7A Loans and UPEs The 2016 Federal Budget amendments to Div 7A, which will fundamentally change the management of Div 7A loans and unpaid present entitlements (UPEs), have been deferred until 1 July 2019 permitting practitioners time to prepare. The ATO’s views on specific anti-avoidance rules and anti-overlap rules and otherwise commercial transactions have created uncertainty regarding Div 7A management practices and structuring.

This workshop will use examples to discuss the management of Div 7A loans and UPEs in preparation for the amendments effective from 1 July 2019.

Day 1 – Thursday, 18 October 2018Time Session Presenter

3.10–3.30pm Afternoon tea

3.30–4.25pm Session 3: GST: Sale and Purchase of Farmland – Because Things ChangeWhile there are many issues in the classification of GST-free food and ingredients that might be amusing for a GST session on agribusiness, from a GST perspective, the GST treatment of the purchase and sale of land and the fixtures and improvements made to farming land is far more important. Consequently, this session will focus on the GST treatment of the purchase and sale of property that is used, or is to be used, for farming activities, including:

— Residential accommodation, other improvements, curtilage and “adjacent land” – to what extent will they be taxable supplies?

— The GST-free going concern and farmland and Div 135 clawback issues — Various assets are owned by different entities, including whether all entities are within the GST system – hobbies, non-commercial activities, partnerships, bare trusts and associated entities

— Practical aspects of the proposed withholding tax system for which the purchaser must remit GST on new residential premises.

The session will be presented by way of a case study preceded by an overview of the legislative scheme.

Michael Evans, CTA Taxsifu

4.30–5.25pm Session 4: Franking Credits – What a WasteThe changes to the company tax rate have a flow-on effect to the imputation rate. This session will look at how the new rules will impact the franking credits available for use by companies that have $10 million–$50 million turnover. Following the money, who will be the most significantly impacted by these changes? Is there a solution or are we going to be stuck with wastage of franking credits? The session will also cover the company tax rate changes and the new rules regarding eligibility for the reduced rate.

Time Session Presenter

9.00–9.30am Session 5: Tax UpdateThis session will provide a brief update on tax changes, topical cases and rulings over the last 12 months, and will include a recap of the 2018 Budget proposals.

Julia FarrellRuddicks

9.35–10.35am Session 6: Economic Update with Craig JamesThis economic update will feature the latest indicators on the Tasmanian economy.

Craig JamesCommSec

10.35–10.55am Morning tea

10.55–11.55am Session 7: The Evolving Role of the Inspector-General of Taxation This session will explore how the Inspector-General of Taxation (IGT) seeks to serve the community through its twin functions of providing a complaint-handling service and conducting broader reviews to improve tax administration.

The session will focus on:

— How the complaint-handling service operates and how tax practitioners, taxpayers and the tax system can benefit from it

— The IGT’s latest reviews, including: – The ATO’s use of garnishee notices, which follows allegations made in the

reporting of a joint investigation by Fairfax and the ABC’s Four Corners program – Future of the tax profession, which is aimed at reaping the benefits and

addressing challenges presented by technological, social, policy and regulatory changes

– ATO’s fraud control management following allegations of tax fraud that may be linked to abuse of position by a public official

— Other IGT reviews — Future directions and observations on tax administration.

Ali NorooziInspector-General of Taxation

12.00–12.55pm Session 8: How to Make the Best Use of Your Company Losses Notwithstanding the best advice and business plans, from time to time corporate taxpayers will incur losses. These can represent a valuable asset, allowing the company to generate future profits with no tax liability. The rules governing the preservation and use of losses are complex and often not well understood.

This session will work through practical case studies covering the latest thinking on losses, for both large corporates and SME companies, including:

— Continuity of ownership (COT) testing – what is ultimate beneficial ownership and how should tracing be applied?

— The new “similar business test” should in theory relax the alternative test for recouping losses – how will it work in practice as your business evolves?

— Losses in the context of M&A activity and tax consolidation — Dealing with companies owned by trusts — Documenting your COT and same business test (SBT) positions – what does the ATO expect in practice?

— What can we glean from the case law on losses? — Other recent developments.

Day 2 – Friday, 19 October 2018Time Session Presenter

1.50–2.45pm Session 9: Employee Equity Plans – Can They Suit Any Business?A key ingredient to the success of a business is its people. In a competitive employment landscape, cost effectively retaining, attracting and motivating talent is a constant challenge. Thus, remuneration structures become a critical part of a business’s people strategy.

Whether you are a private family business, a start-up or a large corporate, an employee incentive that works will ensure that employees are engaged and motivated to achieve the board of directors’ objectives.

One of those potential vehicles is an employee equity plan.

This session will take a pragmatic look at the various types of employee equity plans exploring the pros and cons of each, demonstrating their wider benefit beyond listed companies and start-ups.

David Lilja, CTADLK Advisory

2.50–3.45pm Session 10: SMSFs – Breaches, Consequences, FixesIn a complex legislative environment and with the occasionally ignorant (or wilfully ignorant) trustee, it can be very easy to breach the myriad of rules governing an SMSF. In this session we will look at the type of breaches that can occur within an SMSF – at fund level, with contributions or withdrawals, the consequences of the breach and the opportunities to fix it before the SMSF becomes non-compliant. We will also consider risk mitigation strategies to prevent a breach, or if a breach does occur, reduce the negative impact.
