Calculation statement

This statement works out the tax liability (if any) where there is a taxable or net income. It also takes into account amounts that reduce the tax liability. The final outcome is the net amount the company must pay or we will refund.

We use the information you provide at certain labels of the Calculation statement to calculate the Commissioner’s instalment rate and the Commissioner’s instalment amount for taxpayers under the PAYG instalment system for the next income year. Complete all labels as accurately as possible to ensure that the rate and instalment amounts we calculate result in a reliable estimate of your tax payable for the 2016–17 income year.

To work through the Calculation statement on the tax return, begin with the right-hand column at the top.

Some labels in the calculations statement are mandatory for legal or tax office purposes. Ensure these label are completed to facilitate smooth processing of the return A, B, T1, T5, I and S of the Calculation statement are mandatory labels.

Calculating your T5 TAX PAYABLE and S AMOUNT DUE OR REFUNDABLE

Step 1: Write the following amounts:

• if the amount at T Taxable/net income or loss item 7 is positive, write the amount at A Taxable or net income. Write zero at A if T item 7 is a loss. An amount must be included at this label even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.
• the totals for the following labels (some of the labels have instructions to help you work out your totals; see the particular labels in these instructions):            
  • C Non-refundable non-carry forward tax offsets
  • D Non-refundable carry forward tax offsets
  • E Refundable tax offsets
  • F Franking deficit tax offset
  • H7 Other credits
   
• from your records transfer the respective amounts to:            
  • M R&D recoupment tax
  • G Section 102AAM interest charge
  • H1 Credit for interest on early payments – amount of interest
  • H2 Credit for tax withheld – foreign resident withholding
  • H3 Credit for tax withheld where ABN is not quoted
  • H4 Tax withheld from interest or investments
  • H5 Credit for TFN amounts withheld from payments from closely held trusts
  • K PAYG instalments raised
   
• for Retirement savings accounts (RSA) providers only:      
  • write at U in item 19 the amount of no-TFN contributions income; if zero write 0
  • write at X in item 19 the amount of tax payable on no-TFN contributions income; if zero, write 0.
   

Step 2: Work out the amount at T1 by referring to Appendix 7 for the tax rates. If any tax is payable (a positive amount) on the amount at A, write this tax payable amount at T1. An amount must be included at T1 even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

Step 3: Work out the amount at B Gross Tax (for more information, see the label instructions) as follows:

• add T1 and M
• for RSAs, add T1, M and the amount at X Income tax payable on no-TFN contributions income item 19
• write the result at B.

Step 4: Work out the amount at T2 Subtotal 1 (for more information, see the label instructions and examples) as follows:

• if the amount at C is less than the amount at B Gross tax:            
  • take C away from B
  • write the result at T2
  • go to step 5.
   
• if the amount at C is more than or equal to the amount at B:      
  • write zero at T2, T3 Subtotal 2, T4 Subtotal 3 and T5 Tax Payable. An amount must be included at T5 even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.
  • the amount at D and F may be carried forward to a later income year (subject to the tax offset carry forward rules in Division 65 of the ITAA 1997)
  • copy the amount at E to I Tax offset refunds (Remainder of refundable tax offsets). An amount must be included at this label even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.
  • go to step 8.
   

Step 5: Work out the amount at T3 (for more information, see the label instructions and examples) as follows:

• if the amount at D is less than the amount at T2:      
  • take D away from T2
  • write the result at T3
  • go to step 6.
   
• if the amount at D is more than or equal to the amount at T2:            
  • write zero at T3, T4 and T5
  • the difference between T2 and D (take T2 away from D) may be carried forward to later income year (subject to the tax offset carry forward rules in Division 65 of the ITAA 1997)
  • the amount at F may be carried forward to a later income year
  • copy the amount at E to I.
  • go to step 8.
   

Step 6: Work out the amount at T4 (for more information, see the label instructions and examples) as follows:

• if the amount at E is less than the amount at T3:            
  • take E away from T3
  • write the result at T4
  • write zero at I
  • go to step 7.
   
• if the amount at E is more than or equal to the amount at T3:            
  • take T3 away from E and write the result at I
  • write zero at T4 and at T5
  • the amount at F may be carried forward to a later income year
  • go to step 8.
   

Step 7: Work out the amount at T5 (for more information, see the label instructions and examples) as follows:

• if the amount at F is less than the amount at T4:            
  • take F away from T4
  • write the result at T5
  • go to step 8.
   
• if the amount at F is more than or equal to the amount at T4:            
  • write zero at T5
  • the result of taking T4 away from F, may be carried forward to a later income year
  • go to step 8.
   

Step 8: Work out the amount at H as follows:

• add from H1 to H7 and write the result at H
• go to step 9.

Step 9: Work out the amount at S, Amount due or refundable as follows:

• add T5 and G, and then take away H, I and K
• write the result at S
• if the amount at S is positive, that amount is payable by you.
• if the amount at S is negative, that amount is refundable to you.

A - Taxable or net income

If the company is a resident company, taxable income equals assessable income derived from all sources less allowable deductions incurred in gaining that income.

If the company is a non-resident company, taxable income equals assessable income derived from sources within Australia, plus income that is included on some basis other than having an Australian source, less allowable deductions incurred in gaining that income.

Taxable income takes into account any concessions or adjustments allowable for income tax purposes.

Write at A the amount of taxable income of $1 or more. The amount at A will often be the amount written at T Taxable/net income or loss. Write zero (0) at A if the company has no taxable income or has a loss amount written at T Taxable/net income or loss item 7 with L in the box at the right of the amount.

This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

Public trading trusts and corporate unit trusts show net income at A.

T1 - Tax on taxable or net income

Write at T1 the amount of tax payable before the allowance of any rebates, tax offsets, credits or FDT offsets. The tax rates applicable to companies are listed in appendix 7.

An amount must be included at this label even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

M - R&D recoupment tax

Show at M the extra tax required on your recoupment as calculated under Subdivision 355-G of the ITAA 1997.

If you have claimed the R&D tax incentive and you have received or become entitled to receive a government recoupment (such as a government grant or reimbursement) that relates to expenditure that you or a related entity have claimed a notional deduction for under the R&D tax incentive, the income tax you are liable to pay on the recoupment will be increased. This is referred to as a clawback adjustment.

The amount to be shown at M is the extra income tax required on your recoupment.

The clawback adjustment is capped so that the extra tax payable cannot exceed the amount of the grant you received.

For more information about how this amount is calculated, see Research and development tax incentive – clawback adjustment.

B - Gross tax

If you are not an RSA provider, write at B the total of amounts at T1 and M.

If you are an RSA provider, write at B the total of amounts at T1, M and any further tax on no-TFN contributions recorded at X item 19.

To ensure smooth processing of your tax return, this label must be completed.

For more information on the further tax on no-TFN contributions, see Tax file numbers and super contributions.

Priority of use of tax offsets

The first category of tax offsets to be applied against gross tax is C Non-refundable non-carry forward tax offsets. If the offsets are greater than the gross tax, the excess offsets cannot be used and are lost.

If tax is still payable after applying this category of offsets, at T2 Subtotal 1, the second category, D Non-refundable carry forward tax offsets, is applied against any remaining tax payable at T2.

Any excess of offsets in this category may be carried forward to the next year (subject to the tax offset carry forward rules in Division 65 of the ITAA 1997). If tax is still payable after applying the Non-refundable carry forward tax offsets at T3 Subtotal 2, the third category E Refundable tax offsets is applied against the tax remaining. Any excess of refundable tax offsets above the residual tax payable at T3 becomes part of the credits available to you and is shown at I Remainder of refundable tax offsets.

However, if tax is still payable at T4 Subtotal 3 after applying tax offsets from the above three categories, F Franking deficits tax offsets are applied against this remaining tax to determine your tax payable amount. Any excess of F over the residual tax payable at T4 may be carried forward to a later income year.

C - Non-refundable non-carry forward tax offsets

Write at C the total of actual rebates and tax offsets available (in dollars and cents) and not the amounts giving rise to those tax offsets.

The rebates and tax offsets shown at C are not refundable, nor are they carried forward. They are only offset against gross tax. Gross tax cannot be less than zero. If these tax offsets are greater than the gross tax, the excess tax offsets cannot be used and are lost.

Tax offsets to be shown at C include:

Allowable franking tax offsets for the income year. The amount claimed here should include the share of franking credits included in gross distributions from partnerships and gross distributions from trusts, the amount recorded at J Franking credits item 7 and the amount recorded at C Australian franking credits from a New Zealand company item 7. If the shares or relevant interest are not held at risk as required under the holding period and related payments rules, or there is other manipulation of the imputation system, there is no entitlement to a franking tax offset	$____________
Tax offsets for bonuses and certain other amounts received under short-term life insurance policies taken out after 27 August 1982	$____________
Foreign income tax offset (the amount at J item 20). (Subject to some transitional rules). See 19 Foreign income tax offset for more information.	$____________
TOTAL of all non-refundable non-carry forward tax offsets (write this amount at C)	$____________

Do not show at C:

• any FDT offset; write this amount at F Franking deficit tax offset.

Record keeping

Work out the amount at T2 as follows:

• If the amount at C is less than the amount at B:      
  • take C away from B
  • write the result at T2.
   
• If the amount at C is more than or equal to the amount at B:            
  • write zero at T2, T3, T4 and T5
  • the amount at D and F may be carried forward to a later income year (subject to the tax offset carry forward rules in Division 65 of the ITAA 1997)

Any excess offsets can be carried forward to a later income year (subject to the tax offset carry forward rules in Division 65 of the ITAA 1997).

Note: Before you can apply a tax offset brought forward from a prior year to reduce the amount of income tax that you will pay, you must apply it to reduce certain amounts of net exempt income. Net exempt income is reduced by $1 for each 28.5 cents if the company is a small business entity, otherwise $1 for each 30 cents of the tax offset.

Tax offsets to be shown at D include:

Landcare and water facility tax offset brought forward from prior years	$____________
Non-refundable R&D tax offset (the amount at A item 21)	$____________

  • copy the total amount at E to I.
   

E - Refundable tax offsets

Write at E the total of actual tax offsets available (in dollars and cents) and not the amounts giving rise to those tax offsets.

The tax offsets shown at E are refundable, although they must first be offset against gross tax, if there is any gross tax to be paid after C and D have been applied to gross tax. Gross tax cannot be less than zero. Any excess offsets should be recorded at I and will be available as a refundable (credit) amount for the purpose of calculating the tax liability. An amount must be included at I even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

F - Franking deficit tax offset

Write this amount at F.

The tax offsets shown at F are not refundable. They are only offset against gross tax, if there is any gross tax to be paid after C, D and E have been applied to gross tax. Gross tax cannot be less than zero. Any excess of FDT offset can be carried forward to the next income year.

Tax offsets to be shown at F include:

Current year FDT offset	$____________
Prior year FDT offset	$____________
TOTAL of all FDT offsets (write this amount at F)	$____________

Under the simplified imputation system, entities that have incurred a FDT liability may be allowed to offset the whole or part of this amount against an income tax liability. Some special rules apply to life insurance companies to ensure that a FDT liability can only be offset against that part of the company’s income tax liability that is attributable to shareholders.

A corporate tax entity is entitled to apply the FDT offset to reduce its income tax liability for an income year if it satisfies the residency requirement and at least one of the following conditions:

• it incurred a liability to pay FDT in that year
• it carried forward an amount of FDT offset from a previous year, and not all the FDT offset could be applied against a previous income tax liability
• it incurred a liability to pay FDT in a previous year when it did not meet the residency requirement, and that liability has not been included in calculating the FDT offset.

Generally, an entity satisfies the residency requirement for an income year if it is an Australian resident for more than one half of the year, or it is a resident at all times during the year when it exists.

The FDT offset rules contain provisions that reduce the amount of FDT liability that an entity can use to offset against its income tax liability in certain circumstances. These provisions replace the franking additional tax penalty rules which operated under the former imputation system.

The FDT offset reduction will only apply for an income year for franking debits in an entity’s franking account arising under items 1, 3, 5 or 6 of the table in section 205-30 of the ITAA 1997, and if one of these items applies then any franking debit under item 2 of that table (relating to income tax refunds) will also be relevant. These debits usually arise as a result of having franked a distribution.

The amount of the FDT offset is reduced where the amount of the FDT liability, which is attributable to the franking debits for items 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6, is greater than 10% of the total amount of credits that arose in the franking account for the year. The amount of the reduction is equal to 30% of that part of the FDT liability attributable to those franking debits. For more information on the debits to the franking account that affect the amount of offset and how to calculate this amount, see Franking account tax return and instructions 2016.

There is an exception to the reduction rule for private companies with no previous income tax liability where certain conditions are met. The Commissioner also has discretion to allow the full FDT liability as an offset where the FDT liability arose due to events outside the entity’s control.

To determine the amount of the FDT offset to which the company is entitled for the income year, use the following method. These steps are modified in certain circumstances. See Exclusions from the offset reduction rule.

Step 1: Work out the amount of FDT liability that the entity has incurred in the income year.

Step 2: Did any franking debits arise in the entity’s franking account under items 1, 3, 5 or 6 of section 205-30 of the ITAA 1997 for that income year?

If yes, go to step 3.

If no, the FDT offset reduction does not apply. The amount of FDT liability from step 1 is the amount of the FDT offset that the entity is entitled to for the current income year. Go to step 5.

Step 3: Work out the amount of FDT liability attributable to franking debits under items 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 for that income year.

To do this add together the opening credit balance (if any) of the franking account and any franking credits that arose in the account for the income year. Take away from this amount the total of the franking debits under items 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6.

If there is an excess of franking credits over franking debits (or they are equal), the FDT offset reduction does not apply and the amount of FDT liability from step 1 is the amount of the FDT offset that the entity is entitled to for the current income year. Go to step 5.

If there is an excess of franking debits over franking credits, this is the amount of FDT liability attributable to items 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6. Go to step 4.

Step 4: If the excess of franking debits over franking credits worked out at step 3 is less than or equal to 10% of the total franking credits that arose in the franking account for the same year, the FDT offset reduction does not apply and the amount of FDT liability from step 1 is the amount of the FDT offset that the entity is entitled to for the current year. Go to step 5.

If that excess is greater than 10% of the total franking credits that arose in the franking account for that income year, the FDT offset reduction applies as follows:

• Work out 30% of that excess. This is the reduction amount. Reduce the amount of FDT liability for that income year from step 1 by the reduction amount. This is the amount of the FDT offset that the entity is entitled to for the current year. Go to step 5.

Step 5: For each previous income year for which the entity did not meet the residency requirement, repeat steps 1–4 for that income year to work out the amount of that previous year’s FDT liability that is eligible to be claimed as an offset and that has not previously been claimed as an offset.

Add up the amounts covered by this step 5 for all the previous income years in which the entity did not meet the residency requirements. Go to step 6.

Step 6: For each previous income year for which the entity did meet the residency requirement and was entitled to the FDT offset, work out the amount of any excess FDT offset. This is the amount of FDT offset that exceeded the entity’s hypothetical income tax liability for that previous year (worked out as if the entity did not have an FDT offset but did have all its other tax offsets). Go to step 7.

Step 7: Add up any FDT offset amounts from steps 2, 3 or 4 (these relate to any FDT liability incurred in the 2014–15 income year) and any offsettable portions of previous year FDT amounts from steps 5 and 6. This is the total amount of FDT offset the entity is entitled to for the current income year.

Reduction in FDT that can be offset

Steps 2 to 4 in the above method statement show that the amount of the FDT offset that you can claim may be reduced in some situations. This reduced amount should equal the amount you completed at C Offsetable portion of current year FDT in section B of the Franking account tax return and instructions 2016.

See also:

• Exclusions from the offset reduction rule.

Exclusions from the offset reduction rule

Private companies with no previous income tax liability

For the 2004–05 and later income years, the FDT offset reduction rule will not apply if all the following conditions are met:

1. the entity is a private company for the relevant year
2. the company has not had an income tax liability for any income year before the relevant year
3. if the company did not have the tax offset (but had all its other tax offsets) it would have had an income tax liability for the relevant year, and
4. the amount of the liability referred to in paragraph (c) is at least 90% of the amount of the deficit in the company’s franking account at the end of the relevant year.

Commissioner’s discretion where deficit was outside the entity’s control

The Commissioner has discretion to allow the full tax offset where the FDT liability arose due to circumstances that were outside the entity’s control.

For more information on the application of these exclusions, see Simplified imputation: Franking deficit tax offset. Entitlement to the full offset resulting from one of the exclusions mentioned above should have been noted by inserting the code F, P or C in the Code box in section A on the Franking account tax return 2016. If you did not do this, you will need to request an amendment to that return in order to receive the full offset.

The amount completed at E Franking deficit tax offset in this return will not necessarily be the same as the amount shown at C Offsetable portion of current year FDT in section B of the Franking account tax return 2016. See Franking account tax return and instructions 2016 for information on how to complete C Offsetable portion of current year FDT.

T5 - Tax payable

Write at T5 the amount of tax payable after F has been offset against T4.

Work out the amount at T5 as follows:

• If the amount at F is less than the amount at T4:      
  • take F away from T4
  • write the result at T5.
   
• If the amount at F is more than or equal to the amount at T4:      
  • write zero at T5
  • the difference between T4 and F (take T4 away from F) may be carried forward to a later income year
   

T5 cannot be less than zero. An amount must be included at this label even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

G - Section 102AAM interest charge

Write at G any section 102AAM interest relating to a distribution received from a non-resident trust. Section 102AAM of the ITAA 1936 imposes an interest charge on certain distributions from non-resident trusts; see chapter 2 of the Foreign income return form guide.

H - Eligible credits

Write at H the total of the amounts H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 and H7.

H1 - Credit for interest on early payments – amount of interest

Write at H1 only the calculated interest amount of 50 cents or more for early payment. Do not show actual payments.

The company may be entitled to interest if it makes an actual payment on account of certain amounts more than 14 days before the due date of payment. Amounts which may attract early payment interest include payments of:

• income tax
• shortfall interest charge
• interest payable under section 102AAM.

Amounts which are not directly paid but are reduced by the crediting or applying of an amount do not attract early payment interest.

These amounts include:

• credit for instalments payable under the PAYG instalment regime
• credit for amounts withheld from withholding payments under the PAYG withholding regime
• an overpayment of other income tax liabilities
• a running balance account (RBA) surplus
• any other credit entitlement arising under a taxation law.

Early payment interest is also not payable on:

• any component of the payment that exceeds the amount due
• an amount for any period during which that amount also attracts interest on overpayment.

Calculate early payments interest from the date the early payment is made to the date the amount becomes due and payable. However, if an amount paid early on account of a tax liability is refunded before the due and payable date of the liability; interest does not accrue for the period after the date the amount is refunded.

Date of payment is the date:

• shown on the receipt for payment to the ATO
• the payment is posted to us, plus three days
• shown on the taxpayer’s bank statement if payment is made through direct debit; that is, electronic funds transfer (EFT).

Table 10: Interest rates for calculation of early payment

Quarter	Interest rate (pa)
Jul–Sep 2015	2.15%
Oct–Dec 2015	2.14%
Jan–Mar 2016	2.22%
Apr–Jun 2016	2.28%

If the early payment extends over two or more interest periods, calculate the interest for the number of days in each period.

Calculate interest as follows:

Interest =	number of days	X	amount of payment	X	interest rate for period
	365*

Note: *366 for a leap year

Keep a record of the amount of early payments interest claimed. This interest is assessable income in the income year it is paid or credited against another liability.

H2 - Credit for tax withheld – foreign resident withholding

Only complete this label if the amount was withheld in Australia and remitted to the ATO.

Write at H2 the total tax withheld from payments made to the company that were subject to foreign resident withholding.

This includes any share of credits received by the company from a partnership or trust.

If an amount of tax withheld is shown at H2, ensure that you include the corresponding gross payment at Income, B Gross payments subject to foreign resident withholding item 6, or the corresponding gross distribution from a partnership or trust at Income, D or E item 6.

You only complete this label if the company is a foreign resident. An Australian resident should not claim a foreign income tax offset (FITO) for foreign tax paid on foreign source income, at this label.

H3 - Credit for tax withheld where ABN is not quoted

Write at H3 the total tax withheld from payments made to the company that were subject to withholding where an ABN was not quoted.

This amount equals the sum of the amounts shown in the relevant ‘tax withheld’ boxes on the Non-individual PAYG payment summary schedule 2016. For instructions on completing the schedule, see Non-individual PAYG payment summary schedule.

Do not include any share of tax withheld from a partnership or trust distribution where an ABN was not quoted. This is shown at H7 Other refundable credits.

If an amount of tax withheld is reported at H3, declare the corresponding gross payment at Income, A Gross payments where ABN not quoted item 6.

H4 - Tax withheld from interest or investments

Write at H4 any amounts withheld from investment income by an investment body because the company did not provide a TFN or ABN and that have not been refunded already to the company.

Record keeping

Keep the following details of credits for amounts withheld from investments:

• all documentation issued by the investment body detailing payments of income and any amounts withheld from those payments
• details of any amounts withheld from an income payment made to the company and subsequently refunded by the investment body.

Keep the following details of refund receipts:

• amount of refund
• date of refund
• investment reference number; for example, the bank account number of the investment relating to the refund.

H5 - Credit for TFN amounts withheld from payments from closely held trusts

Show at H5 the total amounts withheld from payments where a TFN has not been provided to a trustee of a closely held trust.

If amounts have been withheld from distributions to the company under these rules, the company is required to receive a payment summary in the approved form from the trustee.

See TFN withholding for closely held trusts for more information.

H7 - Other credits

Write at H7:

• the company’s share of credit from a partnership or trust for tax withheld where an ABN was not quoted
• the company’s share of credit for tax paid by a trustee on net income
• for RSA providers, interest on no-TFN tax offset. Write on a schedule of additional information the amount of interest on no-TFN tax offset that you included at H7. Attach the schedule to your tax return.

For more information on interest on no-TFN tax offset, see No TFN contributions. This online calculator can help you calculate the interest. You can find an example of how to calculate the interest in the Fund income tax return instructions 2016.

Do not include at H7 those credits included at J Foreign income tax offset item 20. Also, do not include at H7 any amounts that relate to PAYG instalments. Include these at K PAYG instalments raised.

I - Tax offset refunds (Remainder of refundable tax offsets)

Write at I the remaining amount (if any) of refundable tax offsets from E. An amount must be included at this label even if it is zero (if zero write 0). This label must be completed, as it is mandatory.

If you have an excess amount of refundable tax offsets remaining from E that was not able to be offset set against T3, you must write this amount at I.

If the complete amount at E has been offset against T3, that is, there is no refundable tax offset amount remaining, you must write zero (0) at I.

K - PAYG instalments raised

Write at K the total of the company’s PAYG instalments for the income year of the tax return, whether or not the instalments have actually been paid.

Include in K the total instalment amount either:

• the amounts pre-printed at T7 on the company’s quarterly activity statements or at T5 on its annual instalment activity statement (if it used the instalment amounts worked out by us which it did not vary) or
• the amounts the company reported at 5A on its activity statements, reduced by any credits it claimed at 5B (if it did not use the instalment amounts worked out by us).

To ensure the company receives the correct amount of credit for its PAYG instalments, make sure all of its activity statements are lodged before its income tax return is lodged. Lodge any outstanding activity statements, even if the company has paid the instalments or had nothing to pay.

The company is entitled to a credit for its PAYG instalments even if it has not actually paid a particular instalment. However, the company will be liable for the general interest charge on any outstanding instalment for the period from the due date for the instalment until the date it is fully paid.

This label is only to be used for the monthly, quarterly or annual instalments raised during the financial year. The amount recorded at the label must not include ‘wash up’ or residual payments.

Monthly instalments

From 1 January 2014, the way you make PAYG instalments may have changed. If your adjusted base assessment instalment income exceeded the threshold of $1 billion, you will now be paying monthly rather than quarterly instalments.

On 1 January 2015, taxpayers who exceed the threshold of $100 million will start paying monthly instalments. You will be notified of this change in writing.

Taxpayers who exceed the threshold of $20 million will transition to monthly instalments by 1 January 2016.

S - Amount due or refundable

Write at S the balance of tax payable (+) or refundable (–).

For the amount at S, add T5 and G, and then subtract H, I and K.

If the amount at S is positive, that amount is payable by you.

If the amount at S is negative, that amount is refundable to you.

The amount at S does not take into account any interim or voluntary payments the company has made against its income tax liability for the year of this return. If the company has made such payments, take these into account in calculating the company’s final payment, but do not show the amounts on this tax return.

Send the company’s payment to the address on the pre-identified payment slip. If the company has not received one, see Payment.

Do not send the company’s payment with the Company tax return 2016.
