State Budget 2015-16 - Payroll Tax

Taxation revenue is revenue received from the State’s taxpayers and includes payroll tax, land tax, duties levied principally on conveyances and land transfers, gambling taxes, insurance duty, fire services property levy, motor vehicle taxes and other taxes including congestion levy, metropolitan improvement levy and so on.\r\nThe State’s taxation revenue is forecast by a process that involves application of DTF’s economic forecasts, where there is a relationship between taxation revenue and economic variables; and use of forward indicators, unpublished revenue data and qualitative information from liaison with relevant stakeholders.\r\nThis enables an assessment of economic and other factors influencing the tax bases from which taxes are sourced e.g. for payroll tax, an assessment of the outlook for employment.\r\nWhere necessary, adjustment factors are used to account for other trends or events not captured by the model, such as impact of economic shocks or policy stimulus.

该流程可对影响税源税基的各类经济及其他因素开展评估，例如针对工薪税，需评估就业市场的发展前景。
必要时，将通过调整因子考量模型未覆盖的其他趋势或事件，例如经济冲击或政策刺激的影响。
