1. What is the In-Hand Salary Calculator?

This calculator helps you determine your annual in-hand (net) salary based on your hourly rate in Australia, accounting for income tax and Medicare levy deductions.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following equation:

\[ \text{Annual In-Hand Salary} = (\text{Hourly Rate} \times \text{Hours per Week} \times 52) - \text{Income Tax} - \text{Medicare Levy} \]

Where:

\( \text{Hourly Rate} \) — Your pay rate per hour in AUD
\( \text{Hours per Week} \) — Number of hours worked each week
\( 52 \) — Number of weeks in a year
\( \text{Income Tax} \) — Annual income tax amount
\( \text{Medicare Levy} \) — Annual Medicare levy amount

Explanation: The equation first calculates gross annual salary then subtracts taxes and Medicare levy to get net in-hand salary.
