On completion of this unit you will have obtained the knowledge to distinguish between Commonwealth and State tax systems and be able to demonstrate this through research methods, expand on understanding the language of taxing statutes in order to apply their provisions to situations you may come across in your career and to obtain the ultimate aim of achieving a high level of competency in reading and using tax legislation which is paramount for any tax career.
