Q1; Lynn has recently purchased a café in Ballarat and the turnover is around $400,000 
per annum. There is also an apartment attached to the café but as Lynn lives close-by, 
she has rented this out. 
a) Explain what is Lynn's responsibility in reference as an entity carrying on an 
enterprise in regard to GST. 
b) For the quarter April to June 2013, Lynn collected GST of $9,000 and from 
purchases paid out $10,500 in GST; all purchases were made for the business. 
The enterprise pretty much operates as a cash business. Explain the 
considerations/entitlements that Lynn has and how? 
c) Finally, Lynn had supplied a local business (mechanic) with a line of credit; 
however the business was declared bankrupt, owing Lynn $935.00 inclusive of 
GST. How is this bad debt treated, giving consideration to GST, giving 
consideration to the treatment of the entire amount? 


Q2: 
Many organisations in Australia look to thank their employees with a Christmas 
function. Some of these functions are held on premises, where a caterer is brought in, 
some are held externally. Some functions are held off-site, such as a function centre, a 
restaurant or even in public areas such as parks. Often companies will also give 
employees a gift as well. 
You are required to discuss all FBT and GST implications for a business looking to hold 
such a function, giving consideration to the threshold, on/off-site, just employees 
invited, where associates such as partners are invited and even major clients. You 
should consider the gift planned is a Christmas hamper valued at $110.00 (inclusive of 
GST). Ensure all areas of relevant sections of FBTAA are included. You are to consider 
that the organisation has not elected to use Div 9A.
