How WageYard does paycheck math
Every figure on this site follows the same honest method. Annual pay is simply hourly rate × hours per week × weeks worked per year — we default to 40 × 50 because two weeks of unpaid time off is common and 2,000 hours is a clean, conservative baseline. The after-tax column subtracts FICA at a flat 7.65% (Social Security plus Medicare) and approximates federal income tax at 12% of everything above a $16,100 standard deduction. That is deliberately a rough estimate — real returns use graduated brackets, credits, and your W-4 — and it excludes state and local taxes entirely. Where we mention typical figures (deductions, brackets, wage bases), we phrase them as reported ranges because they change every year.
