How federal income tax works

The US uses a progressive (marginal) tax system — only the income within each bracket is taxed at that bracket's rate. Your entire income is never taxed at your top rate.

Tax = Σ (bracket_income × bracket_rate)
Effective Rate = Total Tax ÷ Gross Income × 100

Texas residents: Texas has no state income tax, so your total tax burden is lower than in most other large states.

⚠️ Estimate only — based on 2024 federal brackets. Does not include Social Security, Medicare, AMT, investment income, or state taxes. Consult a tax professional for your exact liability.
