Paycheck components

Gross pay

Regular wages plus overtime at the applicable multiplier.

Withholding

Federal, state, and FICA deductions reduce gross to net.

Benefits

Health insurance and 401(k) deferrals further reduce take-home — not modeled here.

Formula reference

Gross = (Wage × Regular) + (Wage × 1.5 × OT) · Net = Gross − (Gross × Tax%)

Gross to net pay estimate

Use a single estimated tax rate for quick planning. Actual withholding depends on your W-4 and state forms.

Step-by-step

  1. Enter hourly wage and regular weekly hours.
  2. Add overtime hours at 1.5× default.
  3. Apply estimated tax percentage for planning.

Worked examples

Typical week with OT

$22 × 40 + $22 × 1.5 × 3 = $979 gross. At 22% estimated tax, net ≈ $763.62.
