NDIS SDA calculator: compare annual funding
Compare annual SDA amounts for two supported post-2023 new-build configurations or SA4 locations. See the base rate, location factor and assumptions behind each answer.
Comparison
Your answer
Select both configurations to compare their supported annual amounts.
How to use the SDA price calculator
- Confirm that both scenarios are supported post-2023 new builds with SDA-eligible residents.
- Choose the building configuration, design category and SA4 location for each scenario.
- Select overnight assistance, sprinklers and GST treatment, then compare the annual amounts.
What does the annual amount include?
The tool multiplies the official base rate by the location factor and rounds to whole Australian dollars. Results show the amount per SDA participant and a full-occupancy scenario. Rent contributions, support services, vacancies, operating costs and individual plan decisions are excluded.
Is this guaranteed SDA income?
No. The comparison shows scheduled maximum amounts for the selected assumptions. It does not assess eligibility or guarantee payments or net returns.
How do I make a useful comparison?
Start with the same assumptions in both scenarios, then change one choice, such as the design category or location. This makes the difference easier to explain. Use the number of SDA residents, rather than the total number of rooms, when checking a full-occupancy amount.
Before using a result in a feasibility review, save the service date, building configuration, GST treatment and source links with it. Match those assumptions to the official calculator.
