How Taxes Are Estimated
This calculator uses simplified federal tax brackets (2024-style) for single and married filing jointly. It does not account for deductions (standard or itemized), credits, or other adjustments. Federal tax is computed on taxable income as if it equaled gross income; in practice, deductions reduce taxable income. State tax is applied as a flat rate per state—many states use graduated brackets, so the estimate may be higher or lower than your actual liability. FICA (Social Security and Medicare) is 7.65% up to the Social Security wage base; we cap at that base. The effective tax rate is total tax divided by gross income.
Limitations: No 401(k), HSA, or other pre-tax deductions are modeled. State tax is an average for the state and may not reflect local taxes. Results are for planning only; use official IRS and state resources or a tax professional for filing.
