Paycheck Calculator (US) — FAQs
Bi-weekly vs semi-monthly?
Bi-weekly = 26 paychecks/year (every other Friday); semi-monthly = 24 (1st and 15th). Same annual pay, different check size.
Does this include 401(k) or benefits?
No — this is gross minus taxes only. Pre-tax 401(k) contributions lower federal taxable income and your take-home.
