Abstract

[Extract] In a previous article I discussed the decision of Carr J. in Brown v FC of T98 ATC 4685 (see Tax Week 504 (1998)). I concluded that I hoped and expected that the Commissioner would not appeal the decision as the arguments raised were commercially unacceptable and would further confuse our interest deductibility principles if accepted.

Subsequently, it was learned that this was a test case and an appeal was lodged. Now the Full Federal Court has dismissed the appeal (see Tax Week 381 (1999)). Unfortunately, in so doing it has furthered the trend of enunciating fine distinctions dictating the availability of a deduction.
