ATO Loan Rates

The Australian Government has legislated repayment thresholds for compulsory repayment of government loans. The types of loan covered by these rates are as follows:

  1. Higher Education Loan Program (HELP)

  2. VET Student Loan (VSL)

  3. Student Financial Supplement Scheme (SFSS)

  4. Student Start-up Loan (SSL)

  5. ABSTUDY Student Start-up Loan (ABSTUDY SSL)

  6. Trade Support Loan (TSL).

Loan thresholds and rates are updated in your system when new legislation changes the values.
These rates can be used in quote pdf documents.
Like other rate tables, the quote's "Effective Date" is used to select the appropriate record from this table to use in ATO Loan calculations.

Use the ATO Loan calculation model to see the effect of a calculated HELP Debt.

Thresholds and rates

These rates are used to calculate ATO Loan repayment values in quote placeholders. These can be used in html quote templates as part of a salary packaging comparison.

Thresholds and rates are published by the Australian Taxation Office as 'Study and training loan repayment thresholds and rates'

Troubleshooting

Tip: Visit the main Troubleshooting page for a list of all the available problem-solving tips.

Statutory Rate

Statutory Rate and FBT calculations are displayed in a number of locations in the system - Quote documents, Contracts/FBT and various FBT reports.

Quoting

When a quote is performed, the Statutory Rate that will be used is determined by two factors;

  1. The "Annual KMs" of the quote - determines which distance bracket the vehicle belongs to
  2. The "Effective Date" of the quote - determines the yearly rate that will be used.

Contracts and Reports

When the quote is transferred to a contract, the "Statutory Rate Date" field in Contracts/FBT can be used to refine the Statutory Rate that is used.

The date entered determines which statutory rate will be applied to FBT calculations on the Contracts/FBT screen, in Driver Reports and in FBT reports.

If the date is blank or earlier than 11/05/2011, the existing rates will be used.

If the date entered is 11/05/2011 or later, the new rates announced in the 2011 Federal Budget will be used.

This means that a date must be entered in this field for the new rates to apply to the contract. In most cases, the Start Date of the contract will be suitable; however, there are some scenarios where your driver may be disadvantaged by using the Start Date to determine the statutory rate.

For example;

01/03/2011 a business enters into a contract for a new vehicle expecting 7% at 40,001 kms

15/05/2011 a vehicle is delivered (3rd party start date – to calculate FBT from this date)

01/07/2011 your organisation takes over management of this fleet (contract start date).

In the scenario above, it is desirable (and appropriate) to apply the pre-existing rate to the contract, so the Statutory Rate Date should be 01/03/2011.

A scheduled job exists to populate the Statutory Rate Date with the Start Date if it is blank. You can over-ride this with an alternative date if needed.

Note:

The Statutory Rate that would be applicable if the 'Statutory' Benefit Type was in use is always displayed. This should not be mistaken as the percentage rate used to determine the annual Fringe Benefit, Reportable Benefit and Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT)which is calculated from the Business Usage when using the 'Operating' Cost method. The mitigation of FBT cost using an Employee Contribution is determined by FBT Value x (100-Business Usage)% = Employee Contribution.

Salary Type

Main Page > Fleet / Administration / Clients / Quote Defaults / Salary Type

The client’s salary type determines if a superannuation calculation is performed on the driver’s quote (results show in the 'Superannuation' field).

The salary value used in the calculation can be entered directly into the quote. Alternatively, if a value has been stored in the ‘Salary’ field in the driver record, this will show in the quote.

Salary TypeSuperannuation Calculation
Base OnlyNo super calculation is performed
Base Plus SuperSalary x Super Guarantee Rate
Fixed SuperSalary x Fixed Super Rate
Total PackageNo super calculation is performed
