      Guide to this section
      The purpose of this section is to define threshold remuneration amount.
 (1) The threshold remuneration amount for a reporting period is:
 (a) for a reporting period that begins on or after 29 June 2018 and ends on or before 30 June 2019—$220,000; or
 (b) for a reporting period that begins in a financial year that begins on or after 1 July 2019—the amount worked out using the following formula rounded to the nearest multiple of $5,000:

 (2) The indexation factor for a financial year is the number worked out using the following formula:

where:
base June quarter means the June quarter ending on 30 June 2018.
index number, for a quarter, means the Wage Price Index (total hourly rates of pay excluding bonuses/public sector/all Australia/original) number published by the Australian Statistician in respect of that quarter.
June quarter means a 3‑month period ending on 30 June.
reference June quarter means the June quarter immediately before the financial year.
 (3) The indexation factor is to be calculated to 3 decimal places (rounding up if the fourth decimal place is 5 or more).
 (4) The indexation factor is to be worked out:
 (a) using only the index numbers published in terms of the most recently published index reference period for the Wage Price Index; and
 (b) disregarding index numbers published in substitution for previously published index numbers (except where the substituted numbers are published to take account of changes in the index reference period).
