Calculation of Assessable Contributions

Generally, the liability for tax on contributions lies with the trustee of a fund receiving the contributions. Australian superannuation funds are entitled to deduct the costs of collecting all contributions. The deductions for expenditure incurred by an Australian superannuation fund are not reduced because it received non-taxable contributions - for example, non-deductible employer contributions. However, foreign superannuation funds are only entitled to a deduction for the cost of collecting assessable contributions.

For ATO instructions when completing label R1 refer to Assessable employer contributions on the ATO website.

Label R3 - No-TFN quoted contributions

For ATO instructions when completing label R3 refer to No-TFN quoted contributions on the ATO website. 

The fund will be liable for additional tax on no-TFN- quoted contributions. For a complying superannuation fund, the additional tax is 32% (that is, in addition to 15%). For a non-complying superannuation fund, the additional tax is 2% (that is, in addition to the 45% tax). The effect of the additional tax is that the no-TFN-quoted contribution is subject to an overall tax rate of 47%. This additional tax must be paid regardless of any tax offsets or amounts the fund may have transferred to a life insurance company or PST.

Show additional tax payable because a member did not quote a TFN at J Tax on no-TFN-quoted contributions item 12.

If a member quotes their TFN to the fund in 2017–18 for the first time, and the fund paid additional tax (32% for complying superannuation funds; 2% for non-complying superannuation funds) on no-TFN- quoted contributions in one of the most recent three income years, in relation to that member not having quoted, then a tax offset can be claimed at E2 No-TFN tax offset item 12 for that additional tax.
