The business sector says the Australian Labor Party should reconsider its commitment to restricting a tax cut to businesses with turnover of $A2m rather than the Federal Government’s proposed threshold of $A10m. Tony Greco of the Institute of Public Accountants notes that between 90,000 and 100,000 businesses that boast turnover of $A2m to $A10m have employees and are more likely to use tax relief to take on additional staff than businesses that are below the $A2m threshold, as many of them are sole proprietors.
