1. Introduction According to Australian taxation law, Australian taxpayers could only claim the deductions and rebates (also called offsets) to which they are entitled. S8-1(1) ITAA97 illustrates that the taxpayer could deduct any loss or outgoings which incurred or necessarily incurred in gaining or producing assessable income. In this section, the meaning of "incurred" is fundamental and essential. In this essay, we will firstly discuss different opinions concerning the meaning of "incurred" with the related case law, and then analyze the case of "ANZ Banking Group v FCT" to determine whether this case breaks the particular term. 2. Meaning of "incurred" Taxation Ruling TR 97/7 officially explains the meaning of "incurred". First of all, there is no statutory explanation for the term "incurred", because the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) cannot waste time to define millions of simple terms like this. In addition, it is common to believe that there is no time issues for an expense is incurred and paid in the same year of income. However, it may arise time issues if the outgoing is unpaid at the year end, or the expenditure is derived from two or more income years. There are five conditions should be considered: presently existing liability, payment made without money, defeasible, accounting practice, properly referable. Presently existing liability means that for the purpose of Section 8(1), even though the money is not paid, the outgoing or expense is still may be incurred. In the case "W Nevill & Company Ltd v. FC of T (1937)", it states that the reason why the word is used by "incurred" rather that "paid" is because an outgoing may be incurred even it is not actually been paid. Furthermore, defeasible requires a taxpayer must have completely nexus with the outgoing, for example, a taxpayer take good on approval cannot be treated as the taxpayer's purchase. In addition, if the payment is not real money, for instance, gift, insurance premiums,

    The current x-ray machine flat value would be $12,000 each. Each day the hospital uses the current machines to make 8.5 x-rays per day. The average revenue for each x-ray is $65.00. The hospital calculates the revenue of the machines by multiplying the number of x-rays by the revenue ($65.00 x 8.5 = $553 per day). Looking at the total revenue for the year, $553 per day x 365, the hospital sees revenue of $201845 per year.…

    In the case, “FC of T v The Myer Emporium Ltd 87 ATC 4363”, the taxpayer “The Myer Emporium”, worked out a financial arrangement during 6-9 March 1981. Under the arrangement, it lent $80 million to its subsidiary, Myer Finance Ltd, at an interest rate of 12.5% pa. It also assigned its right to the interest (not to the principal) to Citicorp Canberra Pty Ltd for a lump sum in the order of $45 million. The commissioner treated the lump sum of $45 million received as an income receipt, assessable under s 25(1) of ITAA 1936 (Cth). The commissioner also contended that the amount received constituted a profit assessable under the second limb of s 26(a) as a profit arising from a profit-making scheme.1 Both the Victorian Supreme Court and the Full Federal Court decided in favor to Myer despite the fact the taxpayer had argued contrary to the Tax Office!s argument that the lump sum was merely realizing a capital asset because it was a gain from an isolated transaction outside the ordinary course of its retail and property development business. However, the High Court conferred its decision that the $45 million received by the Myer was assessable under s 25(1) as an income receipt and also under the second limb of s 26(a) as a profit from a profit-making under-taking or scheme2. On the facts in Myer, the High Court held that: “It is the fact that Myer!s business at all times was that of retailing and property developer. The income made by…
