|---|---|
| Liability after carry-back becomes profit | 拢40,000 |
| Less loss carry-back | 拢20,000 |
| Profit chargeable to tax | 拢20,000 |
| Tax @ 25% | 拢 5,000 |
| DTR | 拢 5,000 |
| Tax payable | Nil |
The 拢2,000 CT paid is repayable.
The carry-back has no consequences for late payment interest. Although the DTR has been displaced by a carry back of losses with a later effective date of payment, no additional amount of CT would have carried interest if the claim had not been made. However, COTAX will incorrectly charge interest in such a case. See COM50090 for the action to take.
