Note: Salary sacrificing reduces your taxable income, which means you pay less tax. The money goes into your super where it's taxed at 15% instead of your marginal tax rate. This projection assumes 7% annual investment growth for retirement balance calculations.
Salary sacrifice to super means having part of your pre-tax salary paid directly into your super fund instead of your bank account. These contributions are taxed at 15% in the fund rather than your marginal tax rate.
For someone earning $100,000 (37% marginal rate), every $1,000 sacrificed saves $220 in tax. The money goes into super where it compounds over time for retirement.
