Thanks all. The QBE dividend has been 10% franked in past years.
Tax returns are pretty simple this year and I guess I was trying to get around having to check with the accountant as I'll be doing our own returns and was after an idea of what others had done.
The 10% franking is fairly low so there is minimal extra advantage in the franking credit if the DRP option is accepted. Likewise the low marginal tax rate means that potentially higher captial gains from accepting the BSP option are not an issue unless we keep buying in her a name and dividends end up being substantial (although they are unlikely to reach this point in the next couple of years based on current purchases).
Happy for further clarification from anyone if this is not correct.
