Additional detail: Bradley qualifies to receive an old-style defined benefit pension because of the date he began serving in Parliament. This year, he received $250,000 from it.
Starting super balance: $5,985,450.
Ending super balance: $6,070,560.
Accounting for his withdrawal/pension of $250,000, Bradley's adjusted total super balance at the end of the year is $6.32 million.
That means his superannuation earnings for the year are $335,110.
But only about half - or 50.58 per cent - of those earnings are taxed because only half of his adjusted super balance is above the $3 million threshold.
That puts his taxable earnings at: $169,498.
Since 15 per cent of $169,498 is $25,425, that is the additional tax bill Bradley will have to pay at the end of the year.
