Frequently asked questions

Should the raise apply to base or total pay?

Use the employer's rule; the calculator applies the percentage only to the figure you enter.

Is the result a guaranteed take-home pay?

No. Taxes, insurance, allowances and deductions vary by employer and jurisdiction; use the calculator as a mathematical estimate only.

Should time periods be consistent?

Yes. When comparing pay, hours or deductions, keep the same period so weekly, monthly and annual figures are not mixed.
