Federal brackets and FICA are 2025 figures. State tax is an approximation: progressive states depend on your taxable income, and city taxes such as New York City are not included. Override the rate to match your own payslip.
How it works
Gross salary is a number on an offer letter. This works through federal income tax by bracket, Social Security and Medicare, then the state you live in, and shows what each payday is really worth. State figures are a typical effective rate for a single earner, and you can override the rate if your own return says otherwise.
The formula
Federal tax by bracket on taxable income (gross − standard deduction). FICA: 6.2% Social Security up to the wage base plus 1.45% Medicare. State tax = gross × rate.Paycheck by State: common questions
