If you earn $80,000 per year, you may want to know how much that turns into each month, fortnight or week after tax. That is often the most practical way to compare salaries because net pay is what matters for rent, mortgage repayments, transport, childcare and other living costs.

This page also helps when comparing a salary with an hourly rate or a contractor rate, especially if you are trying to work out whether a role change is worthwhile. You can switch the input type in the calculator and test different work patterns.

Does this page include HELP debt?

The calculator can include or exclude HELP repayments. Turn the student loan option on or off to compare both outcomes.

Can I use this for fortnightly pay?

Yes. The breakdown table shows an annual, monthly, fortnightly, weekly, daily and hourly estimate based on the figures you enter.
