Frequently asked questions
What does the job offer comparison include?
Both jobs run through the full calx.io pay engine, covering income tax, the Medicare levy, HECS/HELP repayments and employer super. You see each take-home pay per pay cycle and per year, the dollar difference, and the total package including super.
One job offer includes super and the other does not. How do I compare them fairly?
Turn on the salary-includes-super toggle for that job. The calculator takes the super guarantee out of the package, so both jobs are compared on the same basis.
Can I compare a second job?
Yes. Switch off the tax-free threshold toggle for the second job. That job is then taxed from the first dollar, which is how PAYG withholding treats a job when you already claim the threshold elsewhere.
