The Rate of Return Instrument (the Instrument) sets out the approach by which we will estimate the rate of return, and comprises the return on debt and the return on equity, as well as the value of imputation credits. We publish a new Instrument every 4 years that will bind all regulatory determinations in the subsequent 4 years.

The Export Tariff Guidelines provide information and guidance to distributors and other stakeholders about how distributors propose and justify two-way pricing
