Taxation amount  is the mandatory financial charge which is levied by the government upon the individuals and the corporate in order to fund various expenditures and manage the economical performance of the business. The conversation (2018) explains that Australian government charges 30% from the corporate against their profit. It has been argued by AFR (2018) that the Australian government charges higher taxation than various other countries. In the list of corporate tax rates, it has been measured that the Australian taxation rate is on 5^th number. It explains that the Australian government’s taxation rate is higher and it must be reduced by the Australian government in order to improve the economical performance of the business.

However, the News (2018) has argued that the Australian government offer the franking dividend to the shareholders of the company which basically manages the taxation rate of the country. The overall tax charges of the business reduce due to it. thus, it has concluded by them that the taxation rate of Australia is quite perfect and Australian government does not require to make any change into it (Saad, 2014). The changes into the Australian corporate taxation rate would lead to the business towards loss.  

It has been stated by The Australian (2018) into his report that the taxation rate of the Australian government is competitive in terms of economical performance as the company needs huge fund to manage the position as well as franking dividend policy offers a good market to FDIs. On the basis of the “The Conversation (2018)” article and the argument of various economist, it has been concluded that the Australian taxation rate is quite better and the country is not required to make any change into the policy. The changes into the Australian taxation rate would lead to the business towards less revenue which would impact on the economical position of the business.

The Australian corporate taxation policy has been set in such a way that the shareholders of the country don’t have to bear the burden of higher taxation. The total deducted tax amount is given back to the shareholders which makes the corporate system more impressive and due to which the FDIs feel attracted. However, there are various other factors as well which is considered by the FDIs before entering into the market to measure the overall position of the business (Henry, Harmer, Piggott, Ridout & Smith, 2009).

The Australian dividend imputation system explains that all the tax payers of the Australia which are either imputed or attributed, to the shareholder by a path of tax credit to make the reduction in the total distribution of income tax payable. The imputation system of the Australian government effectively charges the tax amount on the company’s profit at the average tax rates of the shareholders.

On the basis of the “The Conversation (2018)” article and the argument of various economist, it has been concluded that the Australian taxation rate is enough competitive in order to manage the economic performance of the business. Further, it is recommended that the Australian government is not required to make any change into the policy. The changes into the Australian taxation rate would lead to the business towards less revenue which would impact on the economical position of the business. Lastly, it has been measured that the corporate taxation structure of the Australian government is efficient which manages the tax payment and income tax payable of the business.
