In the given case, the individual Peta had acquired two years ago, a building that had the objective of the generation of revenues and proceeds from the tennis court attached to the building. She had taken steps for the maintenance, repair and renovation of the court for attracting more revenues and incomes. Hence, the same became a part of the ordinary proceeds and thus a part of the assessable income (Piketty and Ganser 2014).
The club offered Peta a nice and attractive offer that made him inclined towards the selling off of the property. He had thought of selling the property in parts but ended up selling off the whole property after the offer of the club. The income that is earned from the selling off of such property is a part of the statutory proceeds and it will be taxable after adjusting exemption of 50% on total sales.
