Frequently Asked Questions
How is hourly rate calculated from annual salary?
Divide your annual salary by total hours worked per year. With a standard 40-hour week and 50 working weeks, that's 2,000 hours — so a $75,000 salary equals $37.50/hr gross. Accounting for taxes and deductions, your net hourly rate is typically 60–75% of that figure depending on your state.
What is the difference between gross and net salary?
Gross salary is your total pay before any deductions. Net salary (take-home pay) is what actually hits your bank account after federal income tax, state income tax, Social Security, Medicare, health insurance premiums, and retirement contributions are removed.
What is an effective tax rate vs. marginal tax rate?
Your marginal tax rate is the rate on your last dollar of income — the top bracket you fall into. Your effective tax rate is the average rate across all your income, which is always lower because the lower brackets apply to all your income first. For most people earning $50,000–$150,000, the effective federal rate falls between 10–18%.
Does my 401(k) contribution reduce my taxes?
Yes. Traditional 401(k) contributions are made pre-tax, which reduces your federally taxable income directly. If you contribute $5,000 and you're in the 22% bracket, you save approximately $1,100 in federal taxes. The contribution still shows up in your gross income for FICA purposes.
Which states have no income tax?
As of 2026, Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming have no state income tax. Living in these states can meaningfully increase take-home pay — equivalent to a pay raise of 4–9% for many earners.
