- The 2 Methods You Can Withdraw Super During Your Transition To Retirement
Retirement marks a significant milestone in one’s life, accompanied by important financial decisions, especially regarding superannuation. As individuals transition into retirement, they must carefully consider whether to withdraw their super as a lump sum or income stream. Understanding the implications of each option is crucial for ensuring financial security and peace of mind in retirement.

- 8 Types Of Benefits That FBT Applies To
For businesses in Australia, providing fringe benefits to employees can be a valuable way to attract and retain talent, as well as incentivise performance. However, employers need to understand their obligations regarding Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT).

- Unlocking The Psychology Of Money: Keys To Economic Well-Being
Money is central to our lives, influencing our financial security, emotional well-being, and fulfilment. Yet, our relationship with money is often complex and deeply rooted in psychological factors that shape our attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours. Understanding the psychology of money is essential for making informed financial decisions, managing resources effectively, and achieving long-term economic well-being.

- An Employer’s Introduction To FBT
Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) is a tax levied on particular benefits employers provide to their employees or their families. It is separate from income tax and is calculated based on the taxable value of the fringe benefit provided. As an employer, it is crucial to understand your FBT obligations to ensure compliance with tax laws and regulations. Who Pays FBT? The responsibility for paying FBT lies with the employer, regardless of whether the benefit is provided directly by the employer or through a third party under an arrangement with the employer. Calculating FBT To determine the amount of FBT payable, employers must ‘gross up’ the taxable value of the benefits provided. This involves calculating the gross income equivalent that employees would need to earn at the highest marginal tax rate (including the Medicare levy) to acquire the benefits themselves. The..
