Mary and Tony have owned a bookshop in Ryde for many years and their business has been very
successful. In January 2020, they were approached by a major competitor to buy the business. Mary and
Tony carry on the bookshop business as partners and also own adjacent premises that are used mainly
as a warehouse for their trading stock. The potential purchaser is only willing to buy the bookshop, and
not the adjacent premises because it already has adequate storage space.
Mary and Tony are quite excited about the offer as this will allow them to have a bit of a break after
working long hours running the business. They are unsure whether there will be any GST consequences
from selling the business.
