Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $1,347 to pay you $12,831. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.98 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29.3% tax rate now rises to 36.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $153,972 a year living in Australia, you will be taxed $45,116. That means that your net pay will be $108,856 per year, or $9,071 per month. Your average tax rate is 29.3% and your marginal tax rate is 39.0%. 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 $39, hence, your net pay will only increase by $61.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $610 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,050 of net incomes.
