🇦🇺 A $1,000 tax deduction does NOT mean the ATO gives you $1,000 back.
A deduction generally reduces your taxable income. The actual tax benefit depends on your marginal tax rate and individual circumstances.
That’s why buying something purely because “it’s tax deductible” doesn’t automatically make it a good financial decision.
And, of course, an expense still needs to meet the relevant rules to actually be deductible.
General tax information only. Speak with a registered tax agent about your individual circumstances.
