In accordance with subsection 12ZF(6) of the Student Assistance Act 1973, the indexation factor is the number worked out to three decimal places using the formula:
| the sum of the index number for the March 2005 quarter and the index numbers for the 3 immediately preceding quarters |
| divided by |
| the sum of the index number for the March 2004 quarter and the index numbers for the 3 immediately preceding quarters, |
| where index number, in relation to a quarter, means the All Groups Consumer Price Index number, being the weighted average of the 8 capital cities, published by the Australian Statistician in respect of that quarter. |
Indexation factor for 1 June 2005:
The indexation factor is 1.024 and the effective percentage increase is 2.4%.= Mar05+Dec04+Sep04+Jun04 / Mar04+Dec03+Sep03+Jun03
= 147.5 + 146.5 + 145.4 + 144.8 / 144.1 + 142.8 + 142.1 + 141.3
= 584.2 / 570.3
= 1.024 (to 3 decimal places)
