Illinois Income Tax Calculation Example:
Let’s calculate the taxes for a single filer living in Illinois who earns $92,000 annually.

1.Federal Tax Calculation:

• Standard deduction: $14,600.
• Taxable income for federal tax: $92,000 - $14,600 = $77,400.
• Federeal tax rate (24%):
  • 10% on income up to $11,600:
    $11,600 x 10% = $1,160.
  • 12% on income from $11,601 to $47,150:
    ($47,150-$11,601) x 12% = $4,266
  • 22% on income from $47,151 to $100,525:
    ($77,400-$47,150) = $30,250 x 22% = $6,655
• Federal tax owed: $1,160 + $4,266 + $6,655 =12,081.

2.State Tax Calculation:

• Personal exemption: $2,775.
• Taxable income for state tax: $92,000 - $2,775 = $89,225.
• State tax rate (4.95%):
  $89,225 x 4.95% = $4,417
• State tax owed: $4,417.

3.Social Security Tax (No deductions, taxed on gross income):

• $92,000 x 6.2% = $5,704.
• Social security tax owed: $5,704.

4.Medicare Tax (No deductions, taxed on gross income):

• $92,000 x 1.45% = $1,334.
• Medicare tax owed: $1,334.

5.Total Tax:

• $12,081 + $4,417 + $5,704 + $1,334 = $23,536

6.Net Pay

• $92,000 - $23,536 = $68,464
