Huh? 21 Mar 17

I thought Super was 9.5%. With a base salary of $743,000 it should be at least $69,730 shouldn’t it?

That’s a good question Huh,

Those are the numbers given in the report but I’m afraid I don’t know the answer on why the super number is so low.

(Although I think the tax friendly status of the super stops at $35,000 anyway, doesn’t it?)

Cheers,

Tim – Mumbrella
