Creating legally compliant private company loan strategies for businesses in Perth to capitalise on tax opportunities.
Private company loans allow private/family businesses to access additional funds from the company without applying tax. Under the Division 7a tax rule, a private company loan allows owners and shareholders of a private company to borrow funds from the business and repay the amount over a period of time with interest. The borrowed amount is not subject to tax, making private company loans a practical part of the business tax strategy.
The Division 7a tax rule, and consequently the application of private company loans, has undergone significant revisions since 1997. The ATO has made multiple overlapping rulings for Division 7a, which complicates the process of taking out a private company loan lawfully.
MKM Accountants have the right expertise to help Perth family businesses access private company loans for greater financial flexibility in full compliance with Division 7a. We review the current financial strategy of family businesses and develop a tailored private company loan solution.
In order for a private company loan to stay compliant with Division 7a, it must:
The written loan agreement must clearly set out the conditions of the loan, including the amount borrowed, the loan term, the names of the lender and borrower, and the interest payable. The interest payable must meet the minimum rate set by the ATO, which is 8.77% as of 7 June 2024.
