Australian Family Budget Spreadsheet - Fortnightly Pay, Bills & Monthly Tracker
NEW (24 Oct 2026): Google Sheets edition included. Your download now has the Excel workbook plus a PDF with a one-click link to make your own Google Sheets copy (same formulas, checked cell by cell against the Excel version).
Built and checked by a CPA. Every formula tested against a separate calculation. 30-day money-back guarantee.
NEW in version 1.2 (22 Oct 2026): every tab now looks and works like an app screen, not a worksheet: no gridlines or row numbers, a branded header with a one-line instruction on each tab, Home and Dashboard links, cleaner tables and clearly marked input cells. Same tested formulas: every result was checked identical to the previous version.
NEW in version 1.1: a one-page Dashboard with 8 key numbers and charts that update as you type, a clickable Home page that takes you to every tab, and a cleaner layout throughout. Same tested formulas.
A budget built for how Australian households actually get paid and billed: fortnightly pay, quarterly power bills, yearly rego and CTP, private health, childcare after the subsidy.

- Summary: monthly plan, what's left over, savings rate, and a chart by group
- Monthly tracker: enter actual spending; over-budget groups turn red
