On 31 July 2008 A Co sells trading stock to UK Co (a UK company) on credit. UK Co will pay A Co 10,000 Pounds Sterling in 3 months. The exchange rate on the day of sale is $1 = 0.48, therefore the A$ value of the 10,000 that A Co expects to collect on 31 October 2008 is: 10, = $20,833 On 31 October 2008, when the exchange rate is $1 = 0.41, A Co receives the 10,000 from UK Co. 31/07/08 31/10/08 Sale of trading stock on credit 10,000 Sale proceeds received 10,000 Foreign Exchange Gain 1 AUD = 0.48 GBP 1 AUD = 0.41 GBP $20,833 $24,390 $3,557

For most taxpayers, transactions entered into on or after 1 July Which taxpayers are affected by the forex rules?
