C2002-32 Senior Executive Service - Notional Salary

Detailed Outline

Senior Executive Service - Notional Salary
The Australian Taxation Office has set the maximum contribution base for Superannuation Guarantee payments at $29,220 per quarter ($116,880.00 per annum) from 1 July 2002. On the same date, the Superannuation Guarantee charge percentage increases from 8% to 9%.

As a result of these changes, from 1 July 2002 the following calculations apply to determine notional salary for a SES remuneration package. (NOTE: these calculations are for notional salary purposes only and are used for paying SES entitlements or when non-SES act in SES positions).

  • If the Total Remuneration Package (TRP) is greater than $127,399.20 p.a. then the notional salary is the TPR less $10,519.20.

For example, if an SES officer is on a TRP of $200,000.00 then the notional salary for that package is $200,000 - $10,519.20 = $189,480.80.

  • If the TRP is less than or equal to $127,399.20 p.a. then the notional salary is the TRP divided by 1.09.

For example, if an SES officer is on a TRP of $120,000.00 then the notional salary for that package is $120,000.00 / 1.09 = $110,091.74.

Advice concerning the impact of the increases on the Superannuation Guarantee charge percentage for other purposes will be the subject of a separate Circular. This Circular updates the figures provided in Circular No. 2001 - 31.
