e61 Capital Income Tax Calculator
This e61 calculator is designed to compare how Australia’s tax and transfer system treats different ways of receiving income. In its current form, the app combines a household tax-transfer model with a labour-and-capital-income comparison module. The central question is whether the system treats equal amounts of income neutrally across sources, or whether tax rules, transfer withdrawal, inflation, and capital-income concessions create different effective tax burdens on wages, interest-like income, and asset returns. The Calculator is currently in alpha. Further development feedback would be appreciated.
