Inputs explained

State
Uses a simplified flat state rate per state (illustrative, not exact tables).
Pretax deductions
401(k), HSA, FSA per paycheck.

How it works

We annualize salary based on pay frequency, subtract pre-tax deductions, apply a simplified standard deduction and federal brackets, plus Social Security/Medicare.

State tax uses a simple flat rate lookup by state (illustrative). Post-tax deductions are subtracted at the end.

Outputs include gross, taxable, each tax component, total deductions, and net per paycheck.

When to use it

  • Quick net pay estimate for offer comparisons.
  • Budgeting take-home pay with pre-tax contributions.

Tips & cautions

  • State rates are simplified; check your state’s official tables for precision.
  • Use effective tax rates if you want to approximate total burden more conservatively.
  • Illustrative rates only; does not use full federal/state withholding tables.
  • Ignores credits, exemptions, and local taxes; no additional Medicare surtax modeled.
