FBT calculation incorrect in Payroll Premier 2015/16

Legacy KB ID: 5294

Question

Why is the Reportable FBT amount no longer correct?

 

Answer

Alter the FBT rate in Preferences to 49.00

 

The Issue

The FBT rate increased on the 1st of April 2015 from 47% to 49%.  This change was not included into the 2015/16 edition of Payroll premier.

Reckon apologises for the inconvenience this is causing.

 

Workaround - Alter the FBT rate in Preferences.

1.    File > Preferences > Tax

2.    In the FBT Tax Rate field, replace the existing entry with 49.00

3.    Click Save

4.    Go to an employee’s record card and click on the FBT tab.

5.    To test the calculation, enter 51.00 in the Amount column and click in the Reportable FBT column – you should see $100.00 appear

(= 51.00 / (1.00 – 0.49))

If you have multiple files, repeat these steps in each company file.
