Where $110,000 sits in the tax system
$110,000 is common in IT, accounting, engineering and pharmacy. It clears the $101,000 MLS threshold, so private hospital cover becomes a tax consideration.
Bracket position
You are inside the 30¢ bracket. 32¢ on the next dollar (30¢ tax + 2¢ Medicare). The 30¢ bracket runs to $135,000. Source: ATO individual income tax rates (QC16218).
HECS impact
On the 2025-26 marginal HECS system, $110,000 earns a $6,450/year compulsory repayment (15% of the $43,000 above the $67,000 threshold). That drops take-home to $77,562.
Medicare Levy Surcharge
$110,000 is above the $101,000 MLS single threshold for 2025-26, sitting in Tier 1 (1.0% surcharge). Without private hospital cover, MLS adds $1,100/year on top of the standard 2% Medicare levy. With cover: no surcharge.
Common mistake to avoid
Quoting “$110,000 package” without confirming whether super is included. “$110,000 + super” gives you the take-home above. “$110,000 package incl. super” works out to about $98,214 base salary at the 12% SG rate.
$110,000 across three financial years
Side-by-side for 2024-25, 2025-26 and 2026-27 so you can see the impact of the Stage 3 second-phase cut from 1 July 2026 (which drops the $18,201–$45,000 bracket from 16¢ to 15¢ per the Treasury Laws Amendment (More Cost of Living Relief) Act 2025).
| 2024-25 | 2025-26 | 2026-27 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Take-home | $84,012 | $84,012 | $84,280 |
| Income tax | $23,788 | $23,788 | $23,520 |
| Effective rate | 23.63% | 23.63% | 23.38% |
| Employer super | $12,650 | $13,200 | $13,200 |
You save $268 in FY 2026-27 when the 16¢ bracket drops to 15¢ on the $18,201–$45,000 band.

Frequently asked
- Do I pay the Medicare Levy Surcharge at $110,000?
- Yes, Tier 1 (1.0%). Without private hospital cover, MLS adds $1,100/year on top of the standard 2% Medicare levy. Getting hospital cover removes the surcharge entirely.
- Does this include salary sacrifice or bonuses?
- No. The figures here assume a flat $110,000 cash salary with no packaging. For salary sacrifice, RFB, bonuses or different super arrangements, use the full income tax calculator.
- Why does my payslip show a different number?
- Payroll software applies PAYG using the ATO weekly or fortnightly tax tables, which round per pay-period. The annual reconciliation at tax time matches the figures shown here. Any refund or bill at EOFY is the rounding gap.
- Does this account for the Stage 3 changes?
- Yes. Every figure on this page is from the post-Stage-3 tax scale enacted by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Cost of Living Tax Cuts) Act 2024. The 2026-27 column also includes the second-phase cut from the 2025 follow-up Act.
