What the fortnight leaves out

  • HELP and HECS repayments.
  • The Medicare levy surcharge, if you have no private hospital cover and your income is high enough.
  • Salary sacrifice and novated leases. Those change the taxable amount before this sum.
  • Payroll withholding tables, which can differ by a few dollars from a straight annual split.
