I think last time I made waffles I must have done a half batch. This time I did a full batch and I now have 16 waffles in the freezer for future consumption, along with a couple in my tummy.
I also stewed up my remaining apples and pears with some spice & brown sugar, a couple of serves are in the freezer, one was eaten on the waffles and one is waiting to be topped with yoghurt for a future snack. I'm starting to run out of room in the freezer!
Does anyone here have any knowledge on share dividends and what it means to have it fully franked?
no
prolly one of those things where wiki would be useful
here you go, easy as abc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_dividend_imputation_system
It's a bit like when your employer pays part of your pay to the ATO in anticipation of future tax. If the company distributes money they have already paid tax on you will have a dividend that is paid directly to you, plus an amount that has been paid in tax. Fully franked means the company has paid tax on the whole lot, partially franked means they only paid tax on a part of it. When you come to do your tax return the ATO will work out how much you actually owe (based on the tax rate for your income) and either ask for a bit more tax or refund the extra.
Fully franked you get a credit for entire dividend amount and can offset your tax with that credit.
