About this subject
This subject was previously known as BLW41 Tax Administration. The aims of Taxation Administration are to give you a basic understanding of the administration of the Australian Taxation system and the role various authorities play in the administration of taxation laws. The subject introduces you to the requirements to lodge an annual income tax return and associated elections, which then result in the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) issuing an assessment. We will consider the various means by which outstanding taxation payments can be collected by the ATO. Disputes are common regarding the imposition of taxation and a review of the objection and appeals process will be considered. As the administrator of the Australian taxation system we will consider in depth the role of the Australian Taxation Office including their legislated powers. As a means of deterring taxpayers from not complying with their taxation affairs a strict penalty regime is imposed. Other areas we will consider will be the use of ATO Rulings and the role of a Tax Professional. We will also consider the Commissioner’s remedial power, some state taxation administration powers and topical issues in taxation administration. This unit also includes a field trip to the Perth offices of the ATO.
