Take-Home ≈ Salary × (1 − effective tax rate)
Effective tax: 25–40% depending on income bracket
Hourly = Annual ÷ (Hours/Week × Weeks/Year)
Compare gross salary, estimated taxes, take-home pay, and hourly rate. Also factor in benefits, bonuses, and location.
Benefits like health insurance can be worth $10,000–$25,000/year. Always add benefit value to total compensation.
Subtract federal taxes (~22%), state taxes (~5%), Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%) from gross salary.
A $10k raise on a $60k salary is ~17% — very significant. On $150k it's ~7% — still good but less impactful relatively.
