F4 Estimate

These offsets are detailed separately in the F4 estimate and limited to Tax payable after the application of Non-refundable tax offsets. Any excess can be carried forward to the following year.

The excess, if any, shown in the estimate at the foot of the estimate, has not been adjusted for Div 65 of the ITAA 1997 for the effects of any net exempt income (foreign and Australian) where applicable.

The ESIC offset is not included in the calculation of GDP-Adjusted income for PAYG income tax instalments purposes.
