Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated Acts(1) Work out your average income in this way:
Method statement
Step 1. Add up your * basic taxable income for each of the income years over which you must average your basic taxable income.
Step 2. Divide the sum by the number of those income years.
Step 3. Round the result down to the nearest whole dollar if the result is not already a number of whole dollars.

(a) any amount included in your assessable income under section 82 - 65, 82 - 70 or 302 - 145 (certain employment termination payments and superannuation benefits); and
(b) any * net capital gain included in your assessable income under Division 102.
