Disclaimer: This calculator is intended as a guide only and provides indicative estimates based on the information available at the time of calculation. It does not take into account inflation, changes in interest or bank rates, or future changes to the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS).

Any estimated return on capital expenditure is based on the initial purchase cost only and does not include ongoing or additional costs such as maintenance, servicing, repairs, energy, installation or other operational costs.

Some elements of the DRS are still subject to final policy and implementation decisions. We will update the calculator as further confirmed information and guidance becomes available.
