This year Inland Revenue collected just under $100 billion in tax revenue.

This module will:
- Provide the latest updates on property tax (including various bright-line test examples), interest limitation and short stay accommodation, residential land withholding tax, purchase price allocations, and taxation of trusts, including the 39% trust tax rate
- Help you navigate the taxation minefield by delving into how to manage tax debts, 39% tax rate avoidance, and the taxation of influencers
- Provide insights into making the most of your crypto losses
- Deductibility of payments to settle disputes
- Elections and tax – where do we go from here?
- Cover the latest GST developments, including:
- The new GST on platform rules, including what they mean for clients providing short stay accommodation and ride sharing
- New rules for opting mainly private/exempt assets out of the GST net
- Changes to the GST apportionment and adjustment rules

Introduction
In this paper we will touch on several topics selected with two criteria in mind:
- changes and / or developments over the last year or so; and
- potential relevance to general practitioners.
It is not meant to be a tax technical deep dive, but some detail may be necessary at times. It is also not meant to be a comprehensive update on recent tax developments – the allocated time does not allow for that.
The key issues that we identified are:
- changes to the bright-line test for land – yes, Parliament is still tinkering with the rules!
- denial of interest deductions on residential property;
- denial of interest deductions and short stay properties;
- purchase price allocation rules – you would have seen price allocation schedules introduced in the recent ADLS templates;
- residential land withholding tax;
- trust disclosure rules – this is related to proposed 39% tax rate avoidance measures;
- taxation of crypto assets – can you deduct your FTX losses?
- taxation of influencers – what is Mr Beast’s tax liability?
- deductibility of payments to settle disputes.
