IRP expenditure

This section provides an overview of total IRP expenditure, including break downs by IRPD type.

Chart 2 and Chart 3 show that IRP expenditure is highly concentrated.

In the 2023–24 income year:

  • Entities that disclose more than $500 million in IRP expenditure
    • account for 59% of total IRP expenditure
    • represent 1% of those that disclose IRP expenditure.
  • Entities that disclose up to $10 million in IRP expenditure
    • account for 4% of total IRPD expenditure
    • represent 70% of those that disclose IRP expenditure.

Detailed Table 3 data on data.gov.au displaying the high concentration of IRP expenditure in the 2023–24 income year. The 1% of entities that disclose more than $500 million in IRP expenditure represent 58% of total IRP expenditure.

IRPD statistics for IRP expenditure and IRP revenue are sourced from processed:

For the 2023–24 income year:
