Australian Treasurer Scott Morrison delivers his first Budget tonight. But it could be his last, with Australia going to the polls in around eight weeks from now.
Normally a Treasurer or Finance Minister would present two or three Budgets before facing the voters.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and his Treasurer are walking a difficult line. They need to show they have a vision for growing the economy and creating more jobs.
They will want to throw a few sweeteners towards voters. But they also need to please the credit ratings agencies.
If the credit rating agencies are not convinced that the government is heading back towards a surplus then the agencies will cut Australia's credit rating.
A lower credit rating will increase Australia's borrowing costs.
In the last financial year the Australian government spent AUS$434 billion.
Social security and welfare totalled $154 billion. That included $60 billion for superannuation.
Other big ticket items included health ($69 billion), education ($31 billion) and defence ($26 billion).
The trouble is the deficit is forecast to grow to $37 billion.
Tonight's Budget is expected to include a tax cut for smaller companies, from 28.5 percent to 27.5 percent.
There might also be a lowering of the tax bill for those earning over $80,000 a year and an end to the 2 percent "debt levy" for those earning over $180,000 a year.
That will be partly funded by a crackdown on multinationals dodging tax and by cuts to the superannuation tax concessions for the wealthiest Australians.
