Use when preparing an Australian employee's work-related car expense claim under the cents per kilometre or logbook method, including the choice between them and the 2026-27 standard deduction comparison.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Work-related car expense workpapers

## Inputs

Income year, car ownership or lease details, a record of work-related kilometres (diary or logbook), odometer readings, a valid logbook if claimed (at least 12 continuous weeks), receipts for fuel or charging, registration, insurance, servicing, repairs, lease and interest, the car's purchase price and date, any employer reimbursements or car allowances, and for 2026-27 onwards the facts for the standard deduction: residency, assessable labour income and every other claimed work-related expense of a kind that reduces it.

## Workflow

1. Check each category of trip against the ATO guidance on trips you can and can't claim, and record the basis for each category.

2. Cents per kilometre: read the rate for the income year from the ATO page and apply it to work kilometres up to the ATO maximum. Record how the kilometres were worked out. The rate covers all car expenses, so no separate claim for running costs or decline in value is allowed with it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ryanduguid/australian-accounting-skills/au-car-expenses@sha256:87161d401517306b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.d54ec02, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
