Net Income Formula

The federal and state taxes are calculated using progressive tax brackets. The FICA tax rate is 7.65% for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare, totaling 9.1%.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the net income for a single filer in California with a gross income of $75,000.

  1. Federal tax: $12,325 (using 2023 brackets)
  2. California state tax: $3,500 (using 2023 brackets)
  3. Local taxes: $1,200 (estimated)
  4. FICA taxes: $6,862.50 (75,000 × 9.1%)

Net Income = $75,000 - $12,325 - $3,500 - $1,200 - $6,862.50 = $51,112.50

This example shows that after taxes, the filer takes home approximately $51,112.50 per year.
