SECTION 105   CREDIT FOR INSTALMENTS PAYABLE  

105(1)   [When employer entitled]  

An employer is entitled to a credit when the Commissioner:

(a) makes an assessment of the tax payable by the employer for a year of tax; or

(b) determines that no tax is payable.

Note:

The employer ' s first return for the year of tax is treated as an assessment: see section 72 .

105(2)   [Calculation of credit]  

The credit is equal to:

• the total of each instalment (if any) payable by the employer for the year of tax;

reduced by:

• the total of any credits the employer has claimed under section 112A because of one or more instalments of tax for the year of tax.

Note:

An employer can claim a credit under section 112A in some cases where the amount by reference to which an instalment is worked out reduces during the year of tax.

105(3)   [Liability to pay]  

The making of the assessment or determination, and the resulting credit entitlement, do not affect the liability to pay an instalment.

Note:

How the credit is applied is set out in Division 3 of Part IIB of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 .
