17 Carry forward tax loss = tax loss + franking credit

=70,000 + 3,000 = $ 73,000

The tax loss carried forward is limited to 80% of the total income = 80% of $ 100,000 = $ 80,000

Since $ 73,000 is below limit, the entire loss of $ 73,000 can be carried forward.

ANSWER:

All the above statements are correct except for statement 4 which says The deemed dividend is not frankable.

There is no such clause into Division 7A of ITAA36 which presents the above statement as true.

Hence the statement 4 is incorrect.
