What Australia counts as pay, and over what period
- Australian Taxation Office publishes Taxation Statistics, Table 15 for 2023-24.
- Individual tax returns — includes part-year and part-time filers
- Rows are used exactly as released. Where the agency suppressed an estimate for sample-size reasons, the cell stays empty rather than being filled with a near-enough figure.
- Every wage on these pages is also read a second way — converted at the exchange rate and adjusted for Australia's own price level — because a AUD figure means nothing to a reader outside Australia until it is.
annual (AUD) = as published by AUS adjusted (US$) = annual / PPP(AUS)
