Compare calculators
Both calculators run independently β change the inputs on either side to compare results.
1099 Tax Calculator
Estimate federal taxes owed on freelance or contractor income reported on a 1099. Accounts for self-employment tax, W-2 income, business expenses, and withholdings to show your net tax liability.
Sales Tax Calculator
Calculate the sales tax owed on a purchase given the pre-tax price and the applicable tax rate β useful for budgeting US purchases (where sales tax is added at the register and varies state-by-state) and for working out the tax portion of any receipt where it is shown separately. Enter the price before tax and the combined state+local tax rate as a percentage, and the calculator returns the dollar amount of tax. To get the total amount payable, add this tax to the original price. This calculator does not handle the reverse direction (gross-to-net) or true European-style VAT, which is usually quoted inclusive of tax rather than added on top.
