Non-resident CGT
Resident vs foreign-resident CGT on a sale.
Compares the CGT on a property sale as an Australian resident versus a foreign resident: the discount is apportioned by residency days, and the foreign-resident denial of the main residence exemption is applied where it bites.
Built for expat and internationally mobile clients, where the timing of a sale against a residency change can move the tax bill dramatically.

Insights it surfaces
Alongside the numbers, the tool writes plain-language findings you can carry straight into the conversation. Example wording, from sample figures:
Selling while a foreign resident costs an estimated $147,900 of CGT versus $72,735 as a resident, a difference of $75,165 driven mostly by the lost main residence exemption.
Only 62.40% of the discount survives after apportioning for the years spent as a foreign resident.
Worth knowing
Residency outcomes turn on individual facts. The tool illustrates the mechanics; the residency position itself belongs with the client's tax adviser.
Every tool, every time
Rates and thresholds come from the verified Australian rate set for the selected financial year. Every run can be saved as a scenario against the client, exported as a client-ready PDF or an Excel workbook with live formulas, and carried into an SOA or ROA. A methodology and audit PDF documents the calculation, and every output carries the compliance block.
