Erratum

At paragraph 58 - Sentence 4

Delete the words 'intends to sell' and substitute the word 'sold'.

The sentence should now read:

'Jack sold the house and land on completion for a GST inclusive price of $340,000'.

At paragraph 63 - Sentence 2

Delete the words 'intends to sell' and substitute the word 'sold'.

The sentence should now read:

'The developer sold each of the residential units for a GST inclusive price of $360,000'.

Replace the entire text at paragraph 64 with the following:

'The GST payable under the margin scheme is calculated as follows:
Margin = GST inclusive sale price - value at 1 July 2000
  = $360,000 - $270,000
  = $90,000
GST payable = 1/11 of $90,000'
