Frequently Asked Questions
They're solid ballpark figures using 2024 federal brackets, the single-filer standard deduction, and real FICA rates — but state presets are simplified flat rates and your actual return depends on filing status, credits, and deductions. Use it for comparing offers, not filing taxes.
The payroll tax funding Social Security and Medicare: 6.2% for Social Security (on income up to the annual cap) plus 1.45% for Medicare. It comes out of every paycheck in addition to income tax, which is why take-home is lower than tax brackets alone suggest.
Traditional 401(k) contributions come out before income tax, so a 10% contribution reduces your taxable income by 10% — your paycheck drops by less than the contribution amount. The calculator applies this pre-tax treatment automatically.
Multiply your hourly rate by your weekly hours, then by 52. At 40 hours/week, a quick shortcut is hourly rate × 2,080 — so $30/hour is $62,400/year. The tool computes this from your actual hours slider and shows every pay-period equivalent.
