The federal coalition is releasing its final policies on Wednesday and will reveal its full costings "very, very soon", Opposition Leader Tony Abbott says.
Mr Abbott has been under increasing pressure to reveal his full savings, costings and budget bottom line before the Saturday election.
But he says it's "simply impossible" to reveal the bottom line until the coalition releases its final policy.
"Our final policies will be put out today and very, very shortly you'll have all of our final costs," he told reporters in Sydney on Wednesday.
He said he was happy to submit himself to the judgment of the Australian people over his decision not to release his costings yet.

"If the Australian people think I've been sneaky or tricky, I'm sure they'll pass judgment accordingly," Mr Abbott said.
"But I think the Australian people know who has been sneaky and tricky with them over the last six years."
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said Mr Abbott must guarantee his planned "massive cuts" won't plunge the economy into recession or hurt jobs.
"He knows what the details of his massive cuts are, he knows how large they would be," Mr Rudd told reporters in Melbourne.
"What I fear most of all is if the consequence of Mr Abbott's hidden massive cuts impact the health of our economy, our jobs and run the risk of triggering a recession."
