How this calculator works

Take-home pay is your net income after payroll taxes and deductions. This calculator estimates yearly, monthly, and per-paycheck take-home.

  1. Enter your annual salary (or convert from hourly wages).
  2. Select your state and filing status for estimated tax rates.
  3. Add deductions like retirement % and monthly health insurance.

Formula

Yearly Take-Home = Gross Salary - (Federal Taxes + State Taxes + FICA + Retirement + Insurance)

Monthly Take-Home = Yearly Take-Home / 12

Gross Salary: your annual pay before taxes and deductions

FICA: Social Security + Medicare payroll taxes

Retirement: estimated yearly contribution based on your %

Insurance: monthly insurance cost x 12

Example calculation

Example: $80,000 salary, 6% retirement, $220/month insurance

Retirement: 80,000 x 0.06 = $4,800

Insurance: 220 x 12 = $2,640

Net (estimate): Salary - taxes - deductions = yearly take-home (then divide by 12 for monthly)
