The latest tax tables

The current tax tables (in AccountRight 2017.1.1 and later) need to be used when processing pays from 1 July 2017.

What's changed in the latest tax tables?

  • removal of the temporary budget repair levy
  • increase in the Medicare levy low-income threshold
  • annual indexation of HELP and FS (SFSS) repayment thresholds.

You need to use the new tax tables when calculating PAYG withholdings for payments dated 1 July 2017 and later.

When the tax legislation changes, you need to update the tax tables in your company file.

If you have an AccountRight subscription, AccountRight will automatically check for updates each time you open your file. If an update is available, you'll be notified when opening your company file. After you install the update, you can then update your PAYG tax tables. See also Getting the latest version.
