Company Tax Receipts — methodology

What this metric measures

Australian Government cash receipts from company tax in each financial year, from the Budget's historical receipts table. Outcomes only; budget estimates are not shown.

Why it matters: Company tax is the second-biggest federal revenue source after personal income tax. Its swings drive budget surpluses and deficits and reflect mining and corporate profits.
