What is an FBT year?
FBT is calculated based upon the FBT year which runs from 1st April to 31st March. What is the employee contribution?(E) A post-tax payment made by the employee towards the cost of the benefit reduces the taxable value. The payment must actually have been made within the current FBT year before it can be taken into account. The employee contribution includes any non-reimbursed payment of car expenses (registration, insurance, repairs, fuel etc.). In order to obtain this FBT reduction against liability, documentary evidence must be supplied ie fuel receipt for vehicle detailing the date, amount paid and supplier.
