Calculate your net bonus after federal, state, and additional withholding taxes. Or reverse-calculate to find what gross bonus you need for a desired net amount.
Select your calculation mode: "Gross to Net" to find your take-home pay, or "Net to Gross" to find the gross bonus needed for a desired net amount.
Enter your bonus amount — either the gross bonus (before taxes) or the net amount you want to receive after taxes.
Input your federal tax rate (default 22% for supplemental income), your state tax rate, and any additional voluntary withholding.
Click "Calculate" to see a detailed breakdown of taxes withheld and your final net bonus amount.
Multiply your gross bonus by the inverse of the combined tax rate to determine how much you take home after all withholding taxes are applied.
With a $10,000 gross bonus and 22% federal tax, 5% state tax, and 0% additional withholding, the total tax rate is 27%. That means $2,700 goes to taxes, leaving you with a net bonus of $7,300.
If you need exactly $8,000 after taxes and your combined tax rate is 27%, the required gross bonus is $8,000 ÷ (1 − 0.27) = $10,959. Taxes withheld total $2,959, and your take-home amount is $8,000 as desired.
A $5,000 bonus with 22% federal tax, 5% state tax, and 10% additional withholding results in a 37% total tax rate. Total taxes are $1,850, giving you a net bonus of $3,150.
