About the Webinar

Due to the nature of capital gains tax calculations relating to historic records of acquisition dates and costs, the exercise can become extremely challenging when the person who acquired the assets is no longer around. This session focusses on capital gains tax and the issues applying to deceased estates, including:

  • Establishing the cost base of CGT assets left behind by the deceased
  • The tax implications of property:
    • passing from the deceased to the LPR
    • passing from the LPR to beneficiaries, including testamentary trusts (PSLA 2003/12)
    • sold by the LPR to a beneficiary
    • sold by a beneficiary
  • Can a beneficiary be subject to tax on CGT assets sold by the LPR (TD 2004/3)
  • The CGT treatment of the deceased’s main residence
  • CGT and the impact of residency status of the deceased, the LPR and the beneficiaries
  • Strategies for minimising CGT and streamlining the record keeping duties, including:
    • the CGT asset register (TR  2002/10)
  • Practical examples
