Fringe benefits

With effect from 1 July 2008, the value of a fringe benefit for payroll tax purposes is the value determined by grossing up the aggregate fringe benefits amount using the formula for Type 2 benefits specified under the Fringe Benefits Tax Assessment Act 1986 (Cwlth) (the “FBT Act”). The value of a fringe benefit may or may not include GST depending on the valuation rules applicable under the FBT Act. Where the value so determined includes GST, the GST amount is also included in the value for payroll tax purposes.
