Yields are trailing 12-month distributions, not a forecast. Franking levels are estimates from each fund's recent distributions and change every payment. Grossed-up yield adds the franking credit at the 30% company tax rate. Only funds at least 50% franked are shown. Whether you can use the credits depends on your tax position.
