Title: Calculating tax deductions


1
Calculating tax deductions
In Australia the financial year is 1st July to
30th June. Depreciation of certain items are tax
deductible, eg job related computers, investment
properties etc. If an item is purchased during
the year it can only be depreciated for the
portion of the financial year that you own
it. For example a printer buys a printing press
on 1st October, they can only claim 9/12 of the
allowable deduction this year.
