MyProject 2.0 is a significant upgrade of MyProject 1.0, containing a broader suite of options relating to the application of resource rent taxation to mining operations.

These extended options correspond to analyses included in Wayne Mayo's book Taxing Resource Rent: concepts, misconceptions and practical design, enabling users of MyProject 2.0 to replicate the tables in that book. MyProject 2.0 facilitates that replication by providing stored examples and accompanying guides dealing with issues like the following relating to cash flow royalties (the links in the associated guides are not active):

(a) delayed full loss offset - see stored example's final output in sequence in associated guide;
(b) interaction with income taxation - see stored example's final output in associated guide sequence;
(c) alternative treatment of state royalties - see penultimate output in associated guide sequence;
(d) taxing point upstream of pricing point - see initial output in associated guide sequence; and
(e) application to existing projects - see penultimate output in associated guide sequence.
