What a Pay Rise Is Really Worth on €105,000

At €105,000 you pay the top rate of income tax, 40%, and the top rate of USC, 8% on income above €70,044. An extra €1,000 leaves you with €476.50 after PRSI as well, an effective rate of 52.3%. At this level a pension contribution is one of the few ways to cut the income tax on extra earnings, though it does not reduce USC or PRSI.

Pension Contributions on €105,000

Pension contributions get relief at your rate of income tax, which on €105,000 is 40%. So €1,000 into a pension costs you €600.00 from take-home pay. The relief does not extend to USC or PRSI, which are still charged on your full gross pay, so the saving is 40% rather than your full marginal rate.
