    It should be noted that CGT is only applicable to assets acquired on or after 20th September 1985. The taxpayers originally signed a contract with Oz Constructions (“Oz”) to purchase a block of land and build a house on it on 1 July 1985, making it a pre-CGT asset under s149-10. However, the taxpayers entered into novations with Big Build Ltd (“Big Build”) on 21st September 1985. The issue is whether a new contract was made in these novations and therefore should be regarded as the date of acquisition of the asset. In order for the contract with Big Build to be classified as new from that with Oz, the terms of the contract need to have been altered. In this case they have been; the price to build the home was reduced from $300,000 to $250,000. Therefore, the contract to build the house with Oz is to be disregarded and the date of acquisition is to be considered as 21st September 1985.…

    If Mary damages a client’s hair she would be held liable. According to our textbook, Mary would cause injury to the plaintiff. Mary was to provide a duty of care to the customer. She breached this duty of care “failure to exercise care or to act as reasonable person would act (Cheeseman, 2010, p. 81).” The reason I state, that is because the customer trusted Mary with their hair and she damaged the client’s hair. As long as Celia and Mary register their boutique name with the United States PTO in Washington, DC, and the PTO approved it, there should not be any legal problems. If Celia and Mary decide to offer…

    Alex would be suing Betty for a breach of contract. He would only succeed if he’s able to prove that a contract was in place. A contract can be defined as “a written or spoken agreement that is intended to be enforceable by law.” In order for it to be formed, agreement must take place and it can be broken down into two elements. Firstly, an offer. This can be described as an expression of willingness to contract on clear terms, with the intention that it will become a binding contract when it has been accepted. The second is acceptance, which can be defined as the unqualified expression of assent to the terms of an offer.…

    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…
