❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Gross Income is your total pay before any deductions. **Net Income** (or take-home pay) is the amount you receive after all deductions—including federal, state, and local taxes, Social Security, and health insurance premiums—have been subtracted from your gross income. This calculator focuses on Gross Income.
If you enter a value in the **Monthly Salary** field, the calculator will ignore the **Hourly Rate** and **Hours Worked Per Week** fields for calculating your **Base Pay**. It assumes the monthly amount is your guaranteed pre-tax base pay and proceeds to calculate the annual equivalent by multiplying the monthly figure by 12.
Yes, overtime pay is an essential component of your Gross Income. This calculator allows you to input your average **Overtime Hours Per Week** and the **Overtime Multiplier** (e.g., 1.5 for time-and-a-half) to accurately calculate the annual contribution of your overtime earnings to your total gross income.
While the calculator's primary output is Annual, Monthly, and Weekly Gross Income, the **Payment Frequency** section is included to help contextualize your results. For example, if you are paid **Bi-Weekly**, your gross payment per check would be your Gross Annual Income divided by 26.
The **Estimated Net Annual Income** is a rough guide based *only* on the flat **Tax Withholding Percentage** you provide. It does not account for complex progressive tax brackets, standard deductions, credits, or other mandatory non-tax deductions (like Social Security). For a precise net income calculation, consult a dedicated tax software or a payroll specialist.
