What moves the number

  • State income tax is the biggest variable. Nine states levy no wage tax at all, while the highest marginal rates sit above 9%.
  • Pre-tax contributions such as a 401(k) or a health plan lower taxable income, so they raise take-home pay per dollar contributed.
  • Filing jointly, claiming dependants or itemising deductions all change the result — treat this page as a baseline, not a payslip.
