GST changes for Australian retailers who use drop shipping

From 1 July 2018, GST will apply to sales of low value imported goods (valued at A$1,000 or less) to consumers in Australia.
These GST changes will also affect Australian GST-registered suppliers including Australian retailers who 'drop ship'.
Drop shipping in this context refers to sales of goods that are located overseas at the time of sale and sent directly to consumers in Australia from an overseas source (for example, manufacturer, wholesaler or warehouse).
Currently these transactions do not incur GST. However, from 1 July 2018, Australian retailers should treat these sales the same as other domestic sales, and apply GST at the point of sale.
These changes will ensure goods sourced domestically and from offshore receive the same GST treatment when sold to consumers in Australia.
Imported goods valued above $A1,000, as well as all tobacco products and alcoholic beverages, will continue to have GST applied at the Australian border as per current arrangements.
Any Australian suppliers not registered for GST, will need to include drop shipping sales when determining if they are required to register. If your GST turnover is A$75,000 or more in a 12-month period, you are required to register for GST.

Has the cost of any computer software acquired been treated correctly?

Risk Where a lump sum payment is made for the acquisition of a software licence, it will be accepted for tax purposes that the expenditure is revenue where the useful life of the software is expected to be less than two years. Where the expected useful life of the software is longer the correct tax treatment will depend on the circumstances, as set out in the explanation below. Mitigation Identify all payments for the acquisition of new software licences, and distinguish between regular periodical payments and lump sum payments. For any lump sum payments establish what the useful life of the software is expected to be for the business. For proprietors and partnerships where the expenditure is capitalised and the expected useful life is more than two years, any amortisation is not allowable as a revenue deduction, and a claim should be made for capital allowances. For companies the appropriate tax treatment will depend on the exact nature of the software involved. Effective from 6 ...

Can Freight Be Included With Inventory Cost?

The cost of a business's inventory goes well beyond just the wholesale cost of goods on the shelves. The business has to get those goods to the shelves in the first place -- and that means paying freight charges. In most cases, the freight charges involved in acquiring inventory can be rolled into the cost of that inventory as reported on the company's balance sheet.  Freight In The Internal Revenue Service says a business may include in its inventory cost all the "ordinary and necessary" expenditures of acquiring goods and getting them ready for sale. That specifically includes freight in, or the costs of delivering goods from a supplier to the business. If the company makes products rather than buying them for resale, the freight-in costs of raw materials and parts also can be included in inventory cost.  Freight Out Once a business has goods in its possession, it can't include any further freight charges in inventory cost. For example, if a compan...
