Add:
(2) For the purposes of this section, “deducted home consumption expenditure” referred to in the definition of exempt food component in section 136 is to be taken to be: (a) in relation to a person of the age of 12 years or over—$42; and (b) in relation to a person under the age of 12 years—$21.
Note: Example: Calculation of the value of a living‑away‑from‑home allowance.
Note: Assume that a bankrupt living away from their family is given a living‑away‑from‑home allowance of $220 a week. Of this amount, $100 represents reasonable compensation for the costs of accommodation (i.e. the “exempt accommodation component” is $100), and $80 represents reasonable compensation for the cost of food.
Note: The remaining $40 is compensation for the disadvantage of living away from home in a town where facilities that would be available at home are not available.
Note: Under subsection 31(2), the exempt food component is $80 minus $42 (i.e. the compensation for increased food cost less the deducted home consumption expenditure). The value of the benefit is:
Note: $200 ‑ $100 ‑ ($80 ‑ $42) = $62
