💡 This is the "cash in/out of your pocket" view: $1,040,000 in upfront, then over 5 years on average each month you top up $525/mo (old rules) / you top up $833/mo (new rules), then on sale after CGT you walk away with $1,394,291 (new rules).

⚠️ Calculation notes
  • Holding period crosses 1 July 2027 — calculated using hybrid segmentation (50% discount on pre-cutover gain + indexation + 30% floor after).
  • Stamp duty: $40,000 (added to cost base)

Results are estimates only and do not constitute tax, legal or financial advice. Indexation basis: Phase 1 assumed parameters, CPI assumed 2.5%.

⚠️ This tool produces estimates of policy impact for educational purposes only. It does not constitute tax, legal or financial advice.

Refer to a registered accountant or licensed financial adviser for your actual numbers. The final policy will be governed by the enacted legislation.

Financial figures are computed locally. Anonymous usage stats (verdict / persona / UTM / full input) are sent to JR Academy's admin so we can improve the tool — you can opt out via the bottom banner.
