Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $309 to pay you $2,939. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.17 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
19.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.2% tax rate now rises to 19.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $35,268 a year living in Australia, you will be taxed $3,948. That means that your net pay will be $31,320 per year, or $2,610 per month. Your average tax rate is 11.2% and your marginal tax rate is 21.0%. 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 $21, hence, your net pay will only increase by $79.
Bonus Example
A $1,000 bonus will generate an extra $790 of net incomes. A $5,000 bonus will generate an extra $3,950 of net incomes.
