| | Step 1 | Increase the unfunded component in relation to the transfer amount for any period between the operative time (being the operative time in relation to the splitting agreement or splitting order as a result of which the person has the entitlement under subsection 146MB (4) of the 1976 Act) and the relevant date, using the Treasury bond rate for the last working day of the financial year ending immediately before the period for which the increase is being calculated for bonds with a 10 year term. Note The period between the operative time and the relevant date may include a number of full financial years, or may occur entirely within a single financial year. |
| | | Treasury bond rate for bonds with a 10 year term The Treasury bond rate for the last working day of a financial year for bonds with a 10 year term is:   (a) if any Treasury bonds with that term were issued on that day — the annual yield on those bonds; or |
| | |   (b) in any other case — the annual yield on Treasury bonds with that term, as published by the Reserve Bank of Australia for that day. |
| | | Calculation of increase in unfunded component of transfer amount The increase in the unfunded component is calculated:   (a) at the end of each financial year that occurs between the operative time and the relevant date; and   (b) immediately before the relevant date; using the applicable Treasury bond rate for the relevant period worked out in accordance with steps 2, 3 and 4, and compounded period by period. |
| | Step 2 | First period Identify the shorter of:   (a) the period between the operative time and the end of the financial year in which the operative time occurs; and   (b) the period between the operative time and the day before the relevant date. This is the first period. Multiply the number of days in the first period by the Treasury bond rate for bonds with a 10 year term that is applicable to the financial year in which the first period occurs, and divide the result by 365. Round the result to 3 decimal places. The result is the applicable Treasury bond rate for the first period. |
| | Step 3 | Full financial years (if any) Use this step if a full financial year occurs immediately after the end of the first period and before the relevant date. This is the second period. |
| | | Identify the Treasury bond rate for bonds with a 10 year term that is applicable to the financial year. Round the result to 3 decimal places. |
| | | The result is the applicable Treasury bond rate for the second period. Repeat this arrangement for each full financial year after the second period. |
| | Step 4 | Final period (if any) Use this step if:   (a) there is any period between the end of a financial year and the relevant date; and   (b) neither step 2 nor step 3 covers that period. |
| | | This is the final period. Multiply the number of days in the final period by the Treasury bond rate for bonds with a 10 year term that is applicable to the financial year in which the final period occurs, and divide the result by 365. Round the result to 3 decimal places. The result is the applicable Treasury bond rate for the final period. |
