Estate Tax Estimator
Federal estate tax rates go as high as 55 percent on taxable estates! This means that the federal government could “inherit” more of your estate than your family or designated heirs unless you take measures to preserve your wealth.
Use this calculator to estimate your federal estate tax liability. If you have a potential estate tax problem, you should consider taking steps now to preserve your wealth and protect your heirs.
Income Tax Estimator
As they say there is nothing more certain than death and taxes. Unfortunately, without planning the annual tax liability can be very uncertain. Use this following calculator to help determine your average and marginal tax rates.
Paycheck Analyzer
Contributions to a qualified plan, participation in a company-sponsored cafeteria plan, change in filing status, or number of allowances claimed will have a direct impact on take-home pay. For example, due to federal savings, contributions to a qualified plan do not translate into a direct dollar-for-dollar tradeoff on take-home pay. Use this calculator to help compare your current situation to 'what-if' scenarios. (Note: this calculator does not take into account state tax withholdings -- if applicable.)
Federal Witholding
Each April many taxpayers are surprised as they realize that they have either over withheld or under withheld on their taxes. Use the following calculator to help determine whether you will be on target based on your current withholding status. Make adjustments to your employer W-4 form, if necessary, to more closely match your liability. In the case of a surplus, you may be able to get your future tax return today as an increase in your take-home pay simply by adjusting your W-4 allowances claimed. However, be sure to rerun the calculator each year to make sure you are still on track as the tax and withholding tables change each year.
