Paycheck Calculator FAQ
A paycheck calculator helps determine take-home pay (also known as net pay) for employees of an organization.
There are several important details that can be found on a paycheck. Having this information readily available is handy for record keeping purposes. You can typically find the following:
- Check number
- Employer’s name
- Employer’s address
- Employee’s name
- Employee’s address
- Payment amount
- Employer’s bank account and routing number
Technically, yes, but they are equally as important and are often combined together as most states require employees to receive pay stubs. Pay stubs are critical for personal auditing and are helpful when completing year-end tax forms. A pay stub often includes:
- Gross pay
- Take-home (net) pay
- Hours worked
- Tax information (Federal and state income taxes, local taxes, Medicare/Social Security taxes)
- Wage garnishments
- Benefit deductions
- Year-to-date totals
- Paid time off (PTO) accruals
