Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $2,111 to pay you $20,102. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $1.23 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
11.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 1.8% tax rate now rises to 11.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $20,102 a year living in Australia, you will be taxed $365. That means that your net pay will be $19,737 per year, or $1,645 per month. Your average tax rate is 1.8% and your marginal tax rate is 22.5%. 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 $22.54, hence, your net pay will only increase by $77.46.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $775 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,873 of net incomes.
