52 weeks, not a 53-week year

Weekly gross is multiplied by 52. A year in which you receive 53 weekly pays is not modelled separately. Overtime is left at zero until you add hours.

$1,500 a week

Estimates for an Australian resident who claims the tax-free threshold. Employer super is 12% on top of ordinary earnings unless you mark the salary as including super. Full-time hours are 38 a week across 52 weeks, with no overtime. HELP is included only when that option is on. Weekly, fortnightly and monthly nets follow ATO withholding, so they can differ from the annual net split evenly. This is not personal tax advice.

FAQ

Common questions

Estimates only. Your notice of assessment and payslip are the official figures.

How do you turn weekly pay into a salary?

Multiply the weekly gross by 52. $1,500 a week is $78,000 a year before tax.

Why is weekly net not the annual net divided by 52?

The weekly figure follows ATO pay-as-you-go withholding for a weekly pay. The annual net is the year-end tax estimate. They are close, and they are not always identical.

Does a weekly wage include overtime?

Only if you add overtime hours. The starting example is ordinary pay with no overtime loading.
