Adderton definitely isn't everyone's cup of tea but he IS putting money into our sport and deserves some credit for that. Pretty poor form on AA's part. |

Wonder why Betty would bother buying into AA. It's clearly on the decline and both Speedcafe and V8Sleuth are well ahead.

No - the company (sponsor) pays.
No different to if the company spends a bazillion on TV advertising. All companies pay tax on profits, if they have very high expenditure and low income then they may earn little or no profit; if they have income that is way more than expenditure then they have much more profit to be taxed on. Either way, the tax payer doesn't pay a dime, because it isn't the taxpayer's money, it's the company's money and they pay tax on profit (some of their expenditure will of course be on the wages of the people they pay). In this case, if the marketing spend (sponsorship) is getting the reach and having the impact wanted, then it should benefit / increase income, leading to greater profit, leading to more tax paid. |

As a long time reader of AA, the way the magazine has trended over the last 12 months has lost me completely, the current stewardship of the magazine is disgracing the name.
And the decline I don’t think has much to do with Bruce Williams, he saved it and has been a part of AA for donkeys years, when Mr Clarke came on board seems to be when the attitude of the title significantly shifted…. |

Only bought AA, twice in the last 12 months for 2024 pre and post Bathurst articles.
It was regular purchase during the Chinese Curse Crisis, plenty of good and well researched stories. |

The sponsorship money is from Boost Tel Pty Ltd which is a registered company and sponsorship is a deductible business expense. It is also GST registered, so legitimately claims the GST Supercars invoices it for as well. Boost will pay corporation tax on its profit.
