TAX cuts worth $31.5 billion over the next four years are the centrepiece of Treasurer Peter Costello's 12th Budget, and he is confident that unlike last year, the handouts won't be swallowed up by rising mortgage rates. The tax cuts will take effect in two stages. From July 1 this year the 30 per cent tax rate will only apply to income over $30,000, up from the current threshold of $25,000. For someone on the average salary of $50,000 a year that will mean a tax saving of $750 a year. From July 1, 2008, the 40 per cent threshold will increase to $80,000 from $75,000 and the 45 per cent to $180,000 from $150,000. Budget 2007 - Made in China Tax cuts no threat to economy 新预算还增加了对有小孩家庭,老年居民的补助额,对教育机构增加财政支持,小生意GST强制注册下限也将从50,000提高到75,000. 2007-2008新预算共有10.6 billion surplus(106亿澳元赢余),与此相对应的是美国,日本,英国的财政预算都是赤字.
