Please chose ONE (1) of the following cases and prepare a case analysis:

• Federal Commissioner of Taxation v Stone 2005 ATC 4234.1
• Federal Commissioner of Taxation v Whitfords Beach Pty Ltd (1982) 150 CLR 355.2

• Federal Commissioner of Taxation v Myer Emporium Ltd (1987) 163 CLR 199.4
• Bywater Investments Limited & Ors v. Commissioner of Taxation [2016] HCA 45.5

In your analysis, discuss how the decision of the court, and the tax issue(s) examined by the Court affects a business or commercial enterprise. For example, how might the characterisation of an activity as a ‘business' activity affect someone undertaking gambling activities? Alternatively, how might the High Court's recent clarification of the Australian central management & control test for tax residency affect a multinational business operating in Australia?

The report will be due by midnight (AEST) on Friday, 25 September 2020. Submissions MUST be made via Turnitin. Please ensure that your case analysis does not exceed the 3000 word limit (excluding footnotes and bibliography).

In preparing your case analysis, please ensure that you refer to the Prescribed Textbook and the Recommended Reading and Resources listed in the Course Outline. You should also refer to any relevant materials from the Secondary Sources listed in the course outline as well as the materials posted on Moodle by your lecturer (e.g. the Reading and Analysing Case Law Aide, the Legal Essay Checklist and the Legal Writing Resource). These supplementary resources will assist you in conducting your analysis of the case you choose as well as writing your views about the case in question.
