COVID-19 payments and some issues for companies and trusts

With many having received a cash flow boost and JobKeeper payments, some unique issues can arise where these amounts are received within a trust or company.
The cash flow boost and JobKeeper payment have been flowing to eligible businesses for some time now. These stimulus payments have differing tax treatments, which are:-
the cash flow boost is paid as a credit and is non-assessable non-exempt income, and also free from GST (because it does not represent consideration for a supply)
the JobKeeper payment is paid directly into a recipient's nominated bank account on completion of monthly reporting obligations. JobKeeper is assessable income, not subject to GST, and not included in activity statements.
