22 Tax Consequences of Debt Remission 2022 (Webinar Recording)
excl. GST - Broadcast Date: 3 November 2022
| Quantity |
Product Description
A debtor may be released from their obligations under a debt through the creditor electing to write-off or remit the debt or through the operation of law.
This will usually trigger debt remission income under the financial arrangement rules. Alternatively, a debt write-off may trigger a dividend, or there may not be any tax consequences.
This course will consider the tax implications of writing off debt including:
• When the financial arrangement debt remissions rules don’t apply
• The requirement to undertake a base price adjustment
• The self-remission rules for LTCs and partnerships
• The economic group remission rule
• The availability of deductions for the creditor
Upon satisfactory completion of this course you will be able to:
• appreciate the detail and nuances of the Tax Act’s treatment of debt remission
• articulate Inland Revenue’s views on debt remission and “facilitation” payments
• describe potential mechanisms to plan debt remission to minimise tax.
