How income tax works in Australia

Progressive income tax system with Medicare levy and no state-level income taxes. Includes a 2% Medicare levy on taxable income with exemptions for low earners.

What A$75,000 a year is actually made of

On a gross salary of A$75,000 in Australia, the deductions are Income Tax A$13,020 and Medicare Levy A$1,500. Together they come to A$14,520, or 19.4% of gross pay, which leaves A$60,480 a year — about A$5,040 a month, A$1,163 a week, or A$29 an hour across a standard 2,080-hour year.

Effective rate against marginal rate

Two different rates matter here, and they are easy to confuse. The effective rate of 19.4% is the average cost of every unit of pay across the whole salary. The marginal rate is what the next slice of pay is charged at — around 32.0% on the next A$1,000 of gross. The marginal rate is the higher of the two, because the lower bands have already been taxed at less. It is the marginal rate, not the effective rate, that decides what a pay rise is actually worth.

Every figure on this page comes from the same calculation engine that runs the calculator itself, so this hub and the individual salary pages it links to cannot disagree with one another.
