The RBA cut the cash rate to a new record low of 1.75 per cent today on the back of last week's shock inflation figures which for the first time in 8 years, saw the price of everyday goods go down.

It's now up to each lender to pass this cut on – either in part or in full. Find out what this could mean to your variable home loan repayments using our chart below.
