How this calculator works
Gross up a fully franked cash dividend and calculate the attached franking credit. Inputs are validated, passed to the versioned Australia engine, and recalculated immediately whenever a field changes.
Formula
Franking credit = cash dividend ÷ (1 − company rate) × company rate.
Worked example
A $7,500 dividend franked at 25% carries a $2,500 credit.
Edge cases and assumptions
Tax residency, eligibility dates, exemptions, family circumstances and documentation can change the result. The result card calls out material assumptions and unknown components are not silently changed to zero.
