The Carbon Tax figures shown are a breakdown of the Carbon Tax forecast for 2012. However, the VAT figures are estimates based on the expected Carbon receipts in each category. Please note that the VAT receipts are estimated, as the VAT returns do not require the yield from a particular sector or sub-sector of trade to be identified and the actual VAT yield for each category cannot therefore be determined.
