If expenditure to an associate of an entity that is eligible for the R & D Tax Incentive is incurred but not paid can it be used later as a notional deduction?
Yes. Section 355 - 480 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA 1997) states that if expenditure is incurred to an associate but not paid it can be effectively carried forward to future income tax years.
The expenditure can to be used as a notional deduction in the calculation of the R and D Tax Offset when it is actually paid to the associate.
