How this calculator works
Enter your gross pay and how often you are paid. We annualise it, then subtract (1) federal income tax using the 2025 IRS brackets and the standard deduction for your filing status, (2) FICA — Social Security at 6.2% on wages up to $176,100 plus Medicare at 1.45% (and the 0.9% Additional Medicare Tax above the statutory threshold), and (3) Kansas state income tax using the 2025 schedule above. The result is split back into per-paycheck figures. Methodology simplifications: state credits, benefit recapture, phase-outs of deductions at very high incomes, pre-tax benefits and local taxes are not modelled unless noted.
