Understanding Income Classifications, Business Operations, and Tax Exemptions
Income derived by charities for charitable purposes is generally exempt from income tax.While the exemption has been in place for many years, and its application can seem straightforward, deciding on matters such as what is business income and what is non-business income derived by a charity can be difficult. This needs to be considered also in terms of donations received.
The Inland Revenue has issued several operational and practice statements relating to the GST and income tax rules as they apply to charities.
This course will look at those views and areas of focus as it relates to business and charities. We will work through what it means for charities and consider what, if any, changes may be made to mitigate any taxation outcomes or impacts.
There will be a practical focus as we look at a variety of scenarios to help better understand the implications. We will also look at the implications of deregistration.
