Take-home pay is your gross salary minus federal income tax, state income tax, Social Security (6.2% up to the wage base), and Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% on income above $200,000 for single filers). Pre-tax deductions like 401(k) contributions and health insurance reduce the taxable portion further.
