How Income is Calculated

The calculator adds your salary, wages, and other earnings to work out your total taxable income. It then applies the appropriate ATO tax rates to estimate how much tax you may need to pay.

two

How Deductions Affect Your Refund

Deductions reduce your taxable income, which can lower your overall tax. When you enter eligible expenses, the tax return calculator adjusts your estimate and may increase your expected refund.

How PAYG Withholding is Applied

PAYG withholding shows the tax your employer has already paid on your behalf. Our PAYG tax calculator compares this amount with your estimated tax to show if you may receive a refund or have tax to pay.
