Gross Vs. Net Income

If you like our content, make sure to subscribe to our channel! 

It is important to understand the difference between gross and net income. Your paycheck may show a lower take-home amount than what you expect from your salary or hourly wage. Knowing the difference between the two will help when planning your expenses.

Gross Income

Gross income is a person’s total income earned before taxes and other deductions. Earned income includes salaries, wages, bonuses, tips, and self-employment income.

Net Income

Net income is a person’s income earned after deductions and taxes. Net income is the percentage of take home pay from each paycheck.

Statutary Withholdings on a paycheck include:

  1. Federal Income Tax
  2. Social Security Tax
  3. Medicare Tax
  4. State and Local Income Tax

There are other deductions that impact your net income that may include:

  • Health
  • Dental
  • 401k
  • Flexible- Dependent Care
  • Flexible-Medical

How you adjust your withholdings has a direct impact on your paycheck. Be sure to review the federal and state withholding forms and apply accordingly. The more money that is withheld from your paycheck, the smaller the paycheck. The less money that is withheld from your paycheck, the larger the paycheck. Make the best use of your money, and have the right amount of tax withheld.

This entire program was a lifesaver for me.  I was about 20k in debt and didn’t know how I was going to tackle it.  A friend that was currently enrolled in the debt management program suggested it to me.  After reading the reviews I quickly called ACCC.
