Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between effective and marginal rate?
Your marginal rate is the bracket your last dollar falls in. Your effective rate is the total tax divided by your income — always lower, because earlier dollars are taxed at lower rates.
What does this leave out?
It uses 2024 federal brackets and the standard deduction only. It does not include FICA (Social Security and Medicare), state or local tax, or credits — so it is a planning estimate, not a tax return.
Is this financial advice?
No. These are estimates to help you plan and compare options. Your real figures depend on your lender, taxes and personal situation, so check with a qualified professional before deciding.
