The Australia Tax Engine
Cassandra's Australia tax engine reasons over Australian primary sources rather than a generic global model. Answers name the statute, the section, and the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) guidance relied on, so registered tax agents, CA/CPA accountants, admitted solicitors can verify the reasoning before it reaches a client.
Where legislation is amended or guidance is withdrawn, the engine states which version it relied on. Cross-border questions combine this engine with the applicable double tax agreement, the OECD Model Tax Convention commentary, the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines, and BEPS Pillar One and Pillar Two materials.
