How Federal Income Tax Works
The US federal income tax system is progressive, meaning higher portions of income are taxed at higher rates. Key points:
- Marginal Rate is the rate applied to your last dollar of income
- Effective Rate is your total tax divided by total income — always lower than your marginal rate
- This calculator covers federal income tax only — state taxes, Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%) are not included
- Tax credits (Child Tax Credit, EITC, etc.) can further reduce your tax liability
