Warning - Accumulation Funds

Accumulation funds (which usually end in "Acc" or "Accumulation") have two extra considerations which are not currently handled by this tool:

Tax on dividends paid is due. This can be found on the "consolidated tax certificate".
Re-invested dividends contribute to the cost basis of any funds held, which reduces the amount of CGT due at sale. This calculation can be complicated when combined with section 104 pooling rules, and CGT Calculator aims to support this in the future.

It is up to you to check the output of this tool and to seek tax advice if in doubt.
