The ordered L1$_0$ FeNi phase (tetrataenite) is recently considered as a promising candidate for the rare-earth free permanent magnets applications. In this work we calculate several characteristics of the L1$_0$ FeNi, where most of the results come form the fully relativistic full potential FPLO method with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). A special attention deserves the summary of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energies (MAE's), the full potential calculations of the anisotropy constant $K_3$, and the combined analysis of the Fermi surface and three-dimensional $\mathbf{ k}$-resolved MAE. Other calculated parameters presented in this article are the magnetic moments $m_{ s}$ and $m_{ l}$, magnetostrictive coefficient $\lambda_{ 001}$, bulk modulus B$_0$, and lattice parameters. The MAE's summary shows rather big discrepancies between the experimental MAE's from literature and also between the calculated MAE's.
