Parcel tracking
Cost base needs the original trade record, not a guess.
OpenFolio keeps acquisition dates, quantities, costs, fees and disposals connected so CGT estimates can be rebuilt from the underlying records.

This calculator handles one sale situation at a time. With an OpenFolio account, broker CSV import lets OpenFolio rebuild your portfolio parcels for a financial year and compare FIFO, LIFO and minimise-gains strategy estimates across real trade data.
Import broker CSVs in OpenFolioChanging 1 July 2027
From 1 July 2027 individuals, trusts and partnerships get cost base indexation and a 30% minimum tax rate instead. Gains that accrue before that date keep the 50% discount, so anything held across the changeover has its gain split between two sets of rules.

Questions

Australian resident individuals may be eligible for a 50% CGT discount when a capital asset is held for at least 12 months before disposal. OpenFolio can flag parcel age, but users should confirm eligibility with a tax professional.
FIFO matches disposals against the oldest available parcels first. LIFO matches disposals against the newest available parcels first. OpenFolio lets users compare strategies as estimates before relying on professional tax advice.
No. OpenFolio is record-keeping and calculation software. CGT outputs are estimates based on user-provided data and should be checked against source records and professional advice before lodging a tax return.
