- What is the difference between gross salary and net salary?
- Gross salary is your total pay before any deductions. Net salary (take-home pay) is what remains after income tax, national insurance or social security, pension contributions, and any other deductions are removed. The difference can be significant — for example, a $65,000 gross salary might produce only ~$48,000 net depending on tax jurisdiction and deductions.
- What tax rate should I enter?
- Enter your effective tax rate — the total tax you actually pay divided by your gross income — not your marginal (highest bracket) rate. If you paid $14,300 in income tax on $65,000, your effective rate is 22%. Your payslip or tax return will show the actual tax paid, which you can divide by gross income to find your effective rate.
- How is the hourly rate calculated from an annual salary?
- Annual salary ÷ (hours per week × 52 weeks). For example, $65,000 ÷ (40 × 52) = $31.25/hour. This assumes the same number of hours every week for the full year. Adjust "Hours per Week" in the calculator to reflect your actual working hours.
