Interest Calculator calculates interest on a debt. It is suitable for use by NSW, Victorian, Queensland & ACT legal practitioners.

Interest can be calculated:

1. Pursuant to a single interest rate entered by the user e.g. 12.5%
2. Pursuant to a state or court interest rate scale e.g. Federal Court
3. Pursuant to a custom interest rate scale which is created by the user

Interest Calculator includes the following court/state interest rate scales (sometimes referred to as schedules) :

• NSW - Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 2005 - Schedule 5 (Applies to Local District & Supreme Court)
• Victoria - Penalty Interest Rates Act 1983
• Queensland - pre - judgement interest pursuant to s.47 of the Supreme Court Act 1995
• Queensland post - judgement interest pursuant to s.48 of the Supreme Court Regulation 1998
• Family Court
• Federal Court
• ACT Magistrates Court Pre Judgement
• ACT Magistrates Court Post Judgement
• Reserve Bank Cash Rate
• Reserve Bank Cash Rate Plus 2% (Solicitors in NSW and Victoria may charge interest on their fees only at a special rate known as the Reserve Bank Cash Rate Plus 2%)

Instead of using one of the court/state interest rate scales that are automatically included as part of the program you can create and edit your own custom interest rate scale.
