How this calculator works

The calculator annualizes your gross pay, subtracts your pre tax retirement contribution and the 2026 federal standard deduction, and runs the result through the 2026 federal brackets. Social Security applies at 6.2% up to the $184,500 wage base and Medicare at 1.45% plus 0.9% above $200,000. State tax uses each state's published 2026 rates and standard deduction, and employee paid disability or family leave programs are included for California, New York, Washington, and New Jersey. Everything is divided back into your pay period.
