Each bar is one slice of the year. What is left at the bottom is your take-home pay.

Withholding in real life follows the IRS and Wyoming withholding tables paycheck by paycheck, so an individual check can differ by a few dollars from this annualised estimate; the year-end totals are what the tables aim at.
Full-time — 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year — single filer. The highlighted row is the $25 example used across this page.
Figure H The wage ladder — what each rate really pays per week
Start with the hours: $25.00 × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $52,000 of gross pay. The tax layers then come off. Federal income tax is $4,060 on $35,900 of taxable income, after the $16,100 federal standard deduction. Social Security takes $3,224 and Medicare $754. Wyoming takes nothing from wages. Total tax is $8,038 — an effective rate of 15.5% of gross pay.
What is left is $43,962 a year: $3,664 a month, $1,691 per bi-weekly paycheck, $845 a week. Spread over the 2,080 hours worked, that is $21.14 kept from every hour — the figure to set against a salary offer. At the Wyoming minimum wage of $7.25, the same maths gives $13,926 a year ($268 a week).
The state-specific rules behind the numbers above — the things a generic calculator gets wrong about Wyoming.
Wyoming is one of the nine states with no broad income tax on wages, so an hourly wage here is taxed only by the federal government. The state lines in this calculator are $0 at every wage — that is the correct answer, not a gap in the data. What Wyoming does not take from your paycheck it raises elsewhere, mainly through sales and property taxes.

Wyoming’s own statute says $5.90, below the federal rate, so employers covered by federal law must pay at least $7.25. At that wage, full-time work (40 hours a week, 52 weeks) grosses $15,080 a year and takes home $13,926 after tax in this model — $268 a week, or $6.70 kept per hour worked.

No. The IRS and Wyoming tax the income, not the way it is paid: an hourly wage is simply multiplied by hours and weeks to get the same annual gross a salary would give, and every layer of tax works on that annual figure. That is why this page and the Wyoming paycheck calculator agree to the dollar on the same annual pay — this one just starts from the hour. In Wyoming the comparison is at its cleanest: there is no state schedule in the way at all, so only the federal layers come off.
Because there is nothing to withhold. Wyoming levies no income tax on wages, so an employer withholds only federal income tax and FICA (Social Security and Medicare). If you moved from a state with an income tax, the missing line is real — at $52,000, California’s state income tax and SDI together take $1,845 a year that Wyoming does not.
This page annualises: it works out the whole year’s tax at 2026 rates and divides by the pay period. Real withholding follows the IRS and Wyoming withholding tables check by check and reflects your W-4, any 401(k) or health-insurance premiums, and overtime premiums — hours past 40 are priced at the same hourly rate here — plus any local taxes where they apply. The year-end totals are what the tables aim at; an individual check can differ by a few dollars.
