Small Businesses are Winners in the Federal Budget

13 May, 2015 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Small businesses are winners in Tuesday night’s Federal budget. What this will mean to small businesses in Canowindra: Small businesses will receive a 1.5% tax cut for small companies and a 5% tax discount on income from unincorporated small business activity, i.e. partnerships.

Small business owners will be able to claim an unlimited number of assets worth up to $20,000. Cars, vans and machinery are immediately 100% tax deductable from Tuesday night.

Small companies with annual sales of under $2 million will have their tax rate cut from 30% to 28.5%. Joe Hockey said “we want people to have a go.”
