Note:  The franked and unfranked components of a dividend should be noted on a dividend advice you should have received from the company. If you don’t have that to hand, you can verify the franked and unfranked components of dividends from any company listed on the ASX by going to https://www.asx.com.au/asx/markets/dividends.do and typing the security code. There, you can find details of the last few dividends paid with record date, ex-dividend date, date payable, dividend type (interim or final), dividend amount per share, and franked and unfranked percentages. You will need to calculate the totals for your shareholding by multiplying the dividend amount by the number of shares held, and then, if the franked % is not 100%, multiplying by the franked percentage.
