Definition:

  • A pre-tax deduction deducts the amount from the taxable income before tax has been calculated. Tax is then calculated off this reduced amount.

  • A post-tax deduction deducts the amount from the gross income after the tax has been calculated. This doesn’t affect tax.

  • A non-reportable deduction acts in the same way as a pre-tax deduction but the deduction is not reported to the ATO.


Step 6: Select the purpose of the deduction.

You’ll need to decide is the type of deduction it is; fees or workplace giving.
