How these figures are worked out

Figures use 2026-27 Australian resident tax rates, assume you claim the tax-free threshold and have no HELP or HECS debt, and include the Medicare levy and the low income tax offset. Employer super of 12% is paid on top of your pay. Casual loading, overtime, penalty rates and allowances are not included. To change the hours, super or HELP setting, use the hourly calculator. The tax taken from each pay follows the ATO tax tables and can differ slightly from the tax for the year shown here.
