Knowing how and when to apply the GST adjustment provisions has been made easier and yet more complicated for some as a result of recent changes to the change of use rules. The timing of the purchase of the asset and the change in its use can make all the difference to what change is to be made and the amount of the adjustment. In this webinar, we will go through the different adjustment rules that can apply when there is mixed or varied use of property.

The session will provide an overview of the rules and how they might apply including a discussion on and the application of the new permanent use change rules introduced from 1 April 2023.

In particular the webinar will cover:

• Implications when a previously owned asset is brought into a taxable activity
• Impact on assets if a person ceases to be registered for GST
• Concurrent use of assets (taxable and non-taxable use at the same time)
• Examples of varied use (change of use rules)
• Permanent change of use adjustments
• Associated Persons and varied use

The webinar will cover a variety of practical examples, addressing how the adjustment provisions apply to a variety of assets.

Upon satisfactory completion of this activity you will be able to:

• Understand when the change of use adjustment rules apply and the interplay between these and the permanent use changes
• Calculate an adjustment under the relevant adjustment rules
• Apply these to practical situations
