    Summer School '07

    Hey guys! Those of you who are not so keen on paying upfront, there is this thing called "FEE-HELP". It's just that the government pays for you now. It is not HECS, its like the FULL amount for the subject, however, you pay it off through the tax system, just like HECS. I attended summer...

    list tax deductions

    Not too sure about that :$ i.e. extent of appropriation. I would think it's just an estimate - based on how much time you spend using it personally. Say a laptop - if you are at work all day, and bring it home in the evening and use it for private purposes - you can probably say you used it...

    list tax deductions

    DEPENDS if the asset is being used in an income producing activity. For example, you borrow money/mortgage and buy a property with it. You rent that property out, and as a result you earn income on it. So the expenses incurred in gaining that income are deductible. Such as you may buy pots...

    list tax deductions

    Yes you can deduct gifts and donations - but hey its good to have receipts. Well I would gather that since you donate per month they probably send a Statement at the end of the Financial Year listing the payments you made and the total. So yeah, it is deductible.

    Tax return question

    If you earn more than $6,000 - the amount you get back depends on your deductions. Deductions may include any expenses you incurred in earning your income. Note that this amount excludes travel from home to work and back, because this is a living expense and not a working expense. If you...

    Economics or commerce?

    When I was choosing universities, I was tossing between UNSW and USYD. So glad I chose USYD, its proximity to the city is great. Esp. the travel part to UNSW sounds daunting, like for most people, I gather they have to catch a bus from Central to uni. Environment at USYD is great. So glad I...

    What job while doing Commmerce

    I would say get a job in a small accounting firm. Like if its even 1-2 days a week. You'd get to learn heaps, in terms of what its really like out there, as it is fairly different from university work. Also, working in such an environment will help you choose the right direction you want to...

It was so funny to...
