Businesses risk paying more fringe benefits tax (FBT) than necessary if they are unable to track and record their meal and entertainment spend accurately. ProSpend’s powerful FBT module gives businesses the ability to manage this part of their FBT liability using either the 50/50 or Actual method as prescribed by the ATO.

Track and Report

Our on-demand and real time FBT reporting analyses FBT data from within expense manager and simplifies the return process.

The FBT Report can be run at any point in time across a number of criteria including a date range, status, category, cost centre, expense type (only FBT related expense types are available) and by claimant.

A gross up factor and tax rate is defaulted to the report. If a company is eligible to claim a minor benefit exception amount this can also be entered in the report criteria and excluded from the report.

Reporting that is detailed and supportive

Detailed recipient information is available to support an organisation's FBT return and a comparison that shows the amount of FBT payable if an organisation lodges an Actual or 50/50 return.

FAQ

Need clarification?

What is Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT)?

FBT is a tax employers pay on certain benefits they provide to their employees, their families, or associates in place of wages or salaries. These benefits can include things like company cars, meal allowances, or entertainment expenses. The tax is separate from income tax and calculated on the taxable value of the fringe benefits provided.

Why is accurate FBT tracking important?

How can automated tracking software help with FBT compliance?

What is the 50/50 method for tracking FBT, and how does it work?

The 50/50 method is a simplified way of calculating FBT for entertainment expenses, such as meals, drinks, or staff functions. Under this method, 50% of all entertainment expenses are deemed taxable and subject to FBT, while the other 50% is considered non-taxable.

This approach eliminates the need to distinguish between employees, their associates, or clients when calculating FBT liability. However, businesses must still maintain accurate records of all entertainment expenses to apply the method correctly and demonstrate compliance.
