Income tax: capital gains: for the 1994-95 income year, (a) what is the indexation factor for section 160ZZR (exemption of part of gain attributable to goodwill) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and; (b) what is the associated exemption threshold?

Taxation Determination TD 94/57 notified taxpayers of the goodwill exemption threshold for the 1994-95 income year, and its associated indexation factor, as required by subsection 160ZZRAA(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 .

The calculation of the exemption threshold and indexation factor under section 160ZZRAA was relevant for the purposes of section 160ZZR, which reduced the capital gain attributable to the disposal of the goodwill of a business by half. Section 160ZZRAA was subsequently rewritten, together with the other goodwill exemption provisions, in Subdivision 118-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the indexation factor was rewritten in Subdivision 960-M of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ).

The goodwill exemption ceased to apply in relation to CGT events that happened after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.

For these reasons, this Taxation Determination is no longer necessary.
