Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $25,293 to pay you $10,842,000. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $4.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 46.7% tax rate now rises to 46.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $10,842,000 a year living in Australia, you will be taxed $5,066,407. That means that your net pay will be $5,775,593 per year, or $481,299 per month. Your average tax rate is 46.7% and your marginal tax rate is 47.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $47, hence, your net pay will only increase by $53.
Bonus Example
