Take-home pay per paycheck in Missouri
The same annual pay lands differently depending on how often you are paid. Net amounts per paycheck, after federal tax, FICA, and state withholding:
| Annual salary | Weekly | Every 2 weeks | Twice a month | Monthly |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $50,000 | $787.35 | $1,574.71 | $1,705.93 | $3,411.86 |
| $75,000 | $1,134.71 | $2,269.42 | $2,458.53 | $4,917.07 |
| $100,000 | $1,450.33 | $2,900.67 | $3,142.39 | $6,284.78 |
“Twice a month” is 24 paychecks a year and “every 2 weeks” is 26, which is why the two amounts differ even though the annual pay is identical.
