The
prescribed rate of interest used to calculate fringe benefit
tax for low-interest, employment-related loans will increase
on 1 October from 7.5 percent to 7.98 percent, Revenue
Minister Michael Cullen announced today.
The rate, which
last changed on 1 July this year, is reviewed regularly to
align it with the results of the Reserve Bank’s survey of
first mortgage rates.
