How Income Tax is Calculated
Understanding the basics of tax calculation and deductions.
Gross Income
This is the total amount of money you earn before any taxes or deductions are applied. It includes your base salary, bonuses, and other sources of income throughout the year.
Tax Deductions
Deductions are expenses or investments that lower your taxable income. By subtracting deductions from your gross income, you reduce the overall amount that is subject to tax.
Taxable Income
This is the portion of your gross income used to calculate how much tax you owe. It is simply your Gross Income minus your total eligible Deductions.
Effective Tax Rate
Instead of complex tax brackets, you can use your effective tax rate—the average rate at which your income is taxed—to quickly estimate your total tax liability and take-home pay.
