2005 Salary Cap: $49,500,000
2005 Luxury Tax: $61,875,000 -- $12,375,000 above the salary cap

Please note the inclusion of a Salary Floor. There is no obligation to be above this salary floor, and no penalty if you aren't. The only application for the Salary Floor is to permit teams from cutting non-minimum salary players if it would take them below the floor/they are already below the floor.

2009 Salary Cap: $60,730,000
2009 Luxury Tax: $75,912,500 -- $15,182,500 above the salary cap
2009 Salary Floor: $54,657,000 -- $6,073,000 below the salary cap

2009 Tax Payer Mid-Level Exception: $3,554,000
2009 Low-Level Exception: $2,300,000
You might notice that this number does not match the salary cap number from 2009 in real life. Due to the way the cap basically flat-lined for five seasons before a massive jump in 2016, I've decided to smooth the cap up exponentially to eventually meet that 2016 number.
