I am a sole trader with A$96,480 taxable income. What income tax do I pay for the year, before the Medicare levy and offsets?
The answer
A$19,464
for the year
That is the marginal-rate calculation on A$96,480 of taxable income before the Medicare levy and offsets.
How it was computed
| Taxable income | A$96,480 |
|---|---|
| Rate above A$18,200 | 15% |
| Rate above A$45,000 | 30% |
| Rate above A$135,000 | 37% |
| Rate above A$190,000 | 45% |
| Income tax | A$19,464 |
Marginal rates for an Australian resident only. The Medicare levy and tax offsets are not applied, so the final assessment differs.
