The Money Show aired on Friday 30 October 2020 and the topic: What is Capital Gains Tax and how does it work?
Financial Planner Luke Smith this month is joined by a number of experts he uses to answer financial questions that have a specialist requirement. This week, Luke and Leon at 2CC are joined by Rhys Kyburz of RSM Australia to explore all the key issues around Capital Gains Tax. Luke kicks off the show however by answering a listener question – can you give away money if you’re retired and is there a difference if you receive a Centrelink Pension or are a self-funded retiree?
Key highlights include:
- Did you know that there was a time in Australia when there was no capital gains tax – ah the good old days…
- What is Capital Gains Tax?
- How is it calculated?
- Did you know you pay Capital Gains Tax at your marginal tax rate?
- What happens if your capital gain pushes you into a higher marginal tax rate?
- What are the things you might think about when tax planning – can you offset a gain or get a tax deduction elsewhere, like a super contribution?
- Is your home exempt from Capital Gains Tax?
- Does Capital Gains Tax apply to assets other than property?
- As an Accountant, Rhys provides us with his top tips for managing Capital Gains Tax.
- A free appointment offer to talk about your own financial planning issues. Everyone has different goals and financial planning advice can help you achieve them more effectively, especially when you link different strategies.
