    — interest required to be included in assessable income in respect of the securities is added to taxable income, whilst the interest brought to account for accounting purposes is deducted from taxable income.
  • Interest receivable at year end, unless the policy of the super fund is to recognize interest on an accrual basis.
  • Interest receivable
    — pre TOFA at year end, unless TOFA transitional balancing adjustment method is set to
    Yes

  • Domestic interest

Adjustments should be disclosed in the group adjustment column based on whether they impact the domestic, foreign, or domestic non-withholding tax income components.
After the first year, the opening adjustment amounts will roll forward from the prior year closing amounts via an import of prior period data.
