Plus 2% Medicare levy. Low income tax offset (LITO) of up to $700 reduces tax payable.
What is the Medicare levy?
The Medicare levy is 2% of your taxable income and helps fund Australia's public health system. Low income earners pay a reduced rate or are exempt. Some visa holders are also exempt.
HECS/HELP repayments
Compulsory repayments kick in once your income exceeds $54,435 in 2024–25. The rate starts at 1% and rises to 10% for incomes over $161,341. Repayments are separate to income tax and Medicare levy.
Effective vs marginal tax rate
Your marginal rate is the tax on your last dollar earned — important for understanding the tax cost of a pay rise. Your effective rate is your average rate across total income. For most people the effective rate is significantly lower than the marginal rate because lower income bands are taxed at lower rates.
