The holistic assessment will be held on Wednesday 6^th April at 6pm-8pm in room F1.15 at the Castle Hill campus.

The holistic assessment can be taken as an individual task, or in groups of two (maximum). If you want to do it in a group, arrange your partner yourself.

Study hard!

Notice for Business Tax students 28.3.2011

In your assessment (FBT) on Wednesday night and next Monday, you will also have a PAYG-Withholding question (topic 2).

Don’t forget to bring your tax tables. No tricks, just a straightforward withholding question.

Why? Fergie accidentally assessed a tiny technicality; if an employee does not claim the tax-free-threshold then there is no reduction applied for rebates/offsets they claim. Oops! Yes this is in the fine print at the front of the tables, but was not intended to be assessed.

AAT Presentation

In March 2010 new laws came into effect regulating our industry. If you’re charging for your work (or intend to) and this involves setting up charts of accounts (eg in MYOB) or data entry of invoices/payments, you’re included in these new rules.

To put it simply; if you do not meet the registration requirements, you will not be able to charge for your work. Briefly; there are educational, experience, membership and insurance requirements.  And yes, even if you do not do BAS work, or ‘the accountant’ does the BAS, you are still caught by these rules.

If you’d like to know more, and also have any questions you may have answered, Robert Comelli from the AAT will be visiting our campus on Thursday 7th April at 2pm for a presentation followed by a question/answer session. This will start at 2pm, in FG.33 (auditorium).
