What Comes Out of a Arizona Paycheck
Four deductions are taken from a standard paycheck in Arizona, each calculated on a different base:
- Federal income tax — applied to your salary after the federal standard deduction of $16,100 for single filers, then run through seven progressive brackets from 10% to 37%.
- Social Security — 6.2% of wages up to the 2026 wage base of $184,500, capping your contribution at $11,439.
- Medicare — 1.45% of all wages with no ceiling, plus an extra 0.9% on wages above $200,000 for single filers.
- Arizona income tax — a flat 2.5% on income after the state deduction.
For the full explanation of how the brackets interact, including why moving into a higher bracket never reduces your take-home pay, see the main paycheck calculator guide. Our methodology and sources page lists every figure's origin and the known limitations.

Is this a salary calculator or an hourly payroll calculator?
Both.

It is not a full payroll system, so it does not produce payslips or handle employer-side filings.
