Identify the offer

Check whether the figure is base salary or a package including super. The calculator expects cash salary before tax, excluding employer super contributions.

Understand deductions

The salary result is a limited estimate for an adult full-year tax resident. Medicare, student loans and personal adjustments can change the final amount.

Compare with your budget

Compare available income with your monthly expenses, not just an occupation benchmark. The displayed earnings are medians for workers, not promised starting salaries.
