State Budget 2015-16 - Motor Vehicle Taxes

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.The 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where there is a relationship between taxation revenue and economic variables; and use of forward indicators, unpublished revenue data and qualitative information from liaison with relevant stakeholders.This enables an assessment of economic and other factors influencing the tax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.Where 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.

税收收入（taxation revenue）指从国家纳税人处收缴的财政收入，涵盖工薪税（payroll tax）、地产税（land tax）、主要针对动产转让与土地交易征收的税费、博彩税、保险税（insurance duty）、消防物业征费（fire services property levy）、机动车税（motor vehicle taxes），以及拥堵征费（congestion levy）、城市改善征费（metropolitan improvement levy）等其他税种。政府税收收入的预测流程需结合税收收入与经济变量间的关联关系，应用DTF的经济预测成果；同时运用前瞻性指标、未公开的收入数据，以及通过与相关利益方联络获取的定性信息。该流程可用于评估影响税收来源税基的各类经济及其他因素，例如针对工薪税，需评估就业市场的发展前景。必要时，还将通过调整因子弥补模型未覆盖的其他趋势或事件的影响，例如经济冲击或政策刺激的效应。
