THE BALANCING ACT BUDGET 2021-22
The 2021-22 Federal Budget is a balancing act between a better than anticipated deficit ($106 bn), an impending election, and the need to invest in the long term.
The key initiatives we believe are relevant to you, our clients, include:
- The low and middle income tax offset will be extended to the 2022 tax year – provides an offset up to $1,080 for individuals earning up to $126,000, which is in place for the current year;
- The temporary full expensing of assets purchased has been extended to 30 June 2023, meaning that eligible businesses can continue to claim a full deduction in the year of purchase for eligible assets.
We have a full guide available to you which breaks down the budget. You can access it for free here.
