Hiring cars for employees is subject to FBT

Q: The department lends short-term hire cars to senior executives when their own cars are being repaired. Most of these costs are covered by insurance. Andrew's car was damaged in an accident, so he got a hire car from the department. The department paid $660 for the hire, but they got $400 back from insurance. What kind of benefit is this, and how is it taxed? Does the insurance refund affect the tax? What if the insurance company provided the hire car directly? Any exemptions?

If the parents aren't company employees, are there any other tax implications from the proposed lease?
