Common Questions
How accurate are these calculators? +
All calculators use the latest 2026 federal tax brackets, FICA rates, and standard deductions. State tax rates are updated annually. Results are estimates — your actual take-home pay depends on your specific deductions, filing status, and employer benefits. Use our Salary Calculator for a detailed breakdown including 401k and health insurance.
Which calculator should I start with? +

How much house can I afford on my salary? +
The standard rule is that housing costs should not exceed 28% of your gross monthly income. On a $60,000 salary that is about $1,400/month — supporting a home price around $184,000–$276,000 depending on your down payment and rate. See our full affordability guide for your exact salary.
What is the difference between gross and net salary? +
Gross salary is your total pay before any deductions. Net salary (take-home pay) is what you receive after federal income tax, FICA (Social Security + Medicare), state income tax, and voluntary deductions like 401k or health insurance. For most Americans, net pay is 70–85% of gross pay depending on income level and state.
