(a) 38% for the amount (if any) of the EC part of the taxable income that does not exceed the difference between:

(i) the amount that would have been the taxed element of the retained amount of the post-June 83 component of the ETP if the amount of the excessive component of the ETP had been nil; and

(ii) the taxed element of the retained amount of the post-June 83 component of the ETP;

worked out disregarding section 27AAA of the Assessment Act;

(aa) 47% for the remainder (if any) of the EC part of the taxable income;

(b) for every $1 of the ordinary taxable income - the amount worked out using the formula:

Tax at ordinary rates on non-EC notional income Number of dollars in the non-EC notional income

where:

``Tax at ordinary rates on non-EC notional income'' means the tax that would be payable under clause 1 of Part I of Schedule 7 on an ordinary taxable income equal to the non-EC notional income;

``Number of dollars in the non-EC notional income'' means the number of whole dollars in the non-EC notional income;

In this clause, ``non-EC notional income'' means the amount that would have been the notional income as specified by section 59AB or 86 of the Assessment Act or the former section 42-300 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if that notional income had been calculated by reference to ordinary taxable income instead of by reference to taxable income.

(b) whose taxable income consists of or includes a special income component;

the rate of tax is the amount ascertained in accordance with the formula

	A+B	,
	C

where-

A is the amount of tax that would be payable by the taxpayer under clause 1 on a taxable income equal to the reduced taxable income;

B is 5 times the difference between-

(c) the amount of tax that would be payable by the taxpayer under clause 1 of Part I of Schedule 7 on a taxable income equal to the sum of-
