After-tax salary
The calculator starts with your annual salary or hourly rate, then estimates taxable income, resident income tax, Medicare levy, employer super, and take-home pay. You can switch between yearly, monthly, fortnightly, weekly, and daily views without re-entering your pay.
Results are designed for practical salary planning. They help you compare a new job offer, test whether a raise changes your monthly cash flow, and see how much room you may have for rent, essentials, savings, and flexible spending.
These rates apply to Australian residents with the tax-free threshold and do not include the Medicare levy, offsets, HELP repayments, or special circumstances.

|---|---|
| $0 to $18,200 | No income tax |

| $45,001 to $135,000 | $4,288 plus 30c for each $1 over $45,000 |
| $135,001 to $190,000 | $31,288 plus 37c for each $1 over $135,000 |
| $190,001 and over | $51,638 plus 45c for each $1 over $190,000 |

These examples use 2025-26 resident tax settings, 12% employer super on top, and no salary sacrifice. The 12% default follows the ATO super guarantee rate.
| Salary | Weekly | Monthly | Super |
|---|---|---|---|
| $60,000 | $962 | $4,168 | $7,200 |
| $80,000 | $1,222 | $5,298 | $9,600 |
| $100,000 | $1,484 | $6,431 | $12,000 |
| $120,000 | $1,746 | $7,565 | $14,400 |
| $150,000 | $2,118 | $9,176 | $18,000 |
Start with gross salary, subtract salary sacrifice if used, estimate resident income tax, add the Medicare levy, then divide the remaining net pay into weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or annual amounts.
No. Employer super goes to your super fund rather than your bank account. This page shows super separately so you can compare cash income and total package value.
No. It is a planning calculator for Australian residents using common tax settings. Personal offsets, HELP debt, residency status, fringe benefits, deductions, and employer payroll rules can change the final result.
Use the take-home pay calculator when you want the clearest view of after-tax salary, super, and pay-cycle breakdowns.
Use the salary comparison tool when you need to compare two jobs, pay packages, or hourly options side by side.
Use the what-if salary simulator when you want to test a raise, different weekly hours, or a new work pattern.
Once you know your take-home pay, use the salary comparison to weigh a new role against your current package, or head to the what-if salary simulator to test a raise or a different weekly-hours setup.
