I like the way in which KPMG AU's Virtual Experience programme was designed. I really felt that I was working in KPMG and actually helping my clients. The internship experience felt like actually working in KPMG for many years. Overall It was a great experience and I learned a lot of new things in it.

My virtual internship experience was both rewarding and challenging. Despite not being physically present in the office, I was able to gain valuable insights and practical skills through the virtual platform. Throughout the internship, I was assigned meaningful tasks and projects that aligned with my areas of interest and allowed me to apply the knowledge I gained in my studies.

Overall, the tax program appears to be well-structured and efficient in calculating the tax and cash consequences of participating in a share buy-back for different types of entities. The program takes into account various factors, such as cost base, buy-back price, debit to share capital, deemed dividend, capital gain, and franking credits to provide accurate and comprehensive results.
