##### 6 Amount of levy
(1) The amount of levy payable in respect of a registration renewed in a financial year starting on or after 1 July 1995 is, subject to subsection (3), the amount worked out under the formula:

where:
> new CGFCE number means the number worked out as follows:
(a) take the first set of Commonwealth Government Final Consumption Expenditure Implicit Price Deflators to be issued by the Department of Finance after 1 January in the previous financial year;
(b) find the number that relates to the period ending on 31 December in the previous financial year;
(c) that number is the new CGFCE number.
> base CGFCE number means the number worked out as follows:
(a) take the first set of Commonwealth Government Final Consumption Expenditure Implicit Price Deflators to be issued by the Department of Finance after 1 January in the previous financial year;
(b) find the number that relates to the period ending on 31 December 1993;
(c) that number is the base CGFCE number.
> relevant base rate means the base rate applicable under subsection (2) to the renewal of the registration.
(2) The base rate applicable to a renewal of a registration is as follows:
(a) if, at the time of the renewal, the individual whose registration is renewed proposes to give immigration assistance in the capacity of an employee of a registered agent, an employee of a partnership at least one of whose members is a registered agent, or an employee of a corporation at least one of whose executive officers is a registered agent, then:
(i) if he or she also proposes at that time to give during the period for which the registration is continued, and during that period gives, paid immigration assistance in no more than 5 cases—$50; or
(ii) if subparagraph (i) does not apply—$525;
(b) if the individual whose registration is renewed is not proposing, at the time of that renewal, to give immigration assistance in any of the capacities mentioned in paragraph (a), then:
(i) if he or she proposes at that time to give during the period for which the registration is continued, and during that period gives, paid immigration assistance in no more than 5 cases—$105; or
(ii) if subparagraph (i) does not apply—$1,050.
(3) If an amount worked out under the formula in subsection (1) is not a multiple of $5, the amount is to be rounded as follows:
(a) if the amount exceeds the nearest lower multiple of $5 by $2.50 or more—round the amount up to the nearest higher multiple of $5;
(b) in any other case—round the amount down to the nearest lower multiple of $5.
