this is a question for users of comsec pro trader 2.

when viewing contract notes calculations of the brokerage and net proceeds can be viewed.

i am having trouble calculating the brokerage in an excel spreadsheet. my calculations are close but not exact in accordance to the contract note from pro trader.

the brokerage charges shud be 0.12% however when i calculate the net proceeds if comes out at 0.10899456...%.

are there any hidden charges that i dont know of and are their brokerage rates reliable?

I think your problem involves GST. When I add 10% of your result to your result I get within a whisker of 12%.
