公式
## How Take-Home Pay Is Calculated Your take-home pay is the gross salary minus all deductions: federal income tax, state income tax, FICA (Social Security + Medicare), and retirement contributions. ### Formula **Net Pay = Gross - Federal Tax - State Tax - FICA (7.65%) - Retirement** FICA includes Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%), totaling 7.65% on wages up to the Social Security cap.
计算示例
Annual salary of $60,000 with 12% federal rate, 5% state, 6% retirement.
- 01FICA = $60,000 x 7.65% = $4,590
- 02Federal tax = $60,000 x 12% = $7,200
- 03State tax = $60,000 x 5% = $3,000
- 04Retirement = $60,000 x 6% = $3,600
- 05Total deductions = $4,590 + $7,200 + $3,000 + $3,600 = $18,390
- 06Net annual = $60,000 - $18,390 = $41,610
- 07Net monthly = $41,610 / 12 = $3,467.50
常见问题
What is FICA tax?
FICA stands for Federal Insurance Contributions Act. It includes Social Security tax (6.2%) and Medicare tax (1.45%), totaling 7.65% of your gross pay. Your employer pays an equal amount.
What is an effective tax rate?
Your effective tax rate is the average rate you pay on all income after brackets and deductions. It is lower than your marginal (top bracket) rate because lower portions of income are taxed at lower rates.
Does retirement contribution reduce my tax?
Traditional 401(k) contributions are pre-tax, reducing your taxable income. Roth contributions are after-tax and do not reduce your current tax burden.
