  • Tax Rate is the percentage of your gross salary that goes to taxes.
  • Deductions are any other amounts subtracted from your gross salary.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Standard Salary Calculation

If you earn $5,000 gross salary with a 20% tax rate and $200 in deductions:

Net Pay = $5,000 - ($5,000 × 0.20) - $200 Net Pay = $5,000 - $1,000 - $200 Net Pay = $3,800

Example 2: High Tax Scenario

For a $7,500 gross salary with a 30% tax rate and $500 in deductions:

Net Pay = $7,500 - ($7,500 × 0.30) - $500 Net Pay = $7,500 - $2,250 - $500 Net Pay = $4,750
