What are the 2005 income tax brackets?  Are they a percent of all income or adjusted gross income?

You can find the current income tax brackets in the instructions to Form 1040 or on the IRS website, http://www.irs.gov/individuals/index.html.  The rates apply to taxable income, which is neither gross income nor adjusted gross income; it is adjusted gross income with further deductions.

There are tax law changes every year. If I were you I would look at last years taxes and this years taxes and see what is so different. Last year you might have been at the very end of one tax bracket and this year your income might have pushed you into a different bracket. If you had them done by someone most places will give you a comparison. If they did it will show you where it changed form last year you this year. If you cant find it there then I would start looking for errors. If you find some correct it with a 1040X. Good luck

even after those "tax cuts for the rich", the people classified as rich pay a much larger percentage of their earnings than the "unfortunates"(poor) and middle class.\n\nI posted something on this a while ago, i  believe the rich pay around 33 percent earnings where the middle class pay average of 22-27 percent,and the "less fortunates" pay 5-10 percent.  (these numbers are off memory, but I'm sure they are close)\n\nThat is AFTER those tax cuts.

There are three rates of income tax (10%, 22%, 40%) plus national insurance contributions (10%). As a generalisation, assume about third of you salary will go on taxes.

None.  You're you allowed to exempt up to 250k of the gain from taxes, if you're filing single or seperately.  And 500k if you're married filing jointly.

The general rule of thumb is monthly house payment (principal, interest, insurance and taxes) should be no more than 28% of gross income and total monthly debt payments should be no more than 36% of gross income.\n\nPS.  FYI I work for one of the largest mortgage companies in the US and we use this formula along with other considerations.

10% penality, plus the tax.  So $2,500 right off the top, plus if you are in the typical 28% tax bracket, you'll have to pay another 7,000 in taxes.

Hell! They barely pay any taxes now. It's right at 15%, while everybody else pays close to 30%. With the standard deductions that's what it all works out to be. Average people don't qualify for those deductions for a reason, and the reason is you pay most of the taxes.

It depends highly on your income.  Look at the 1040 tax tables to get an idea for federal.  But typically, take home is 60-80% of gross.

It has to do with the maximum deduction you can take based on your adjusted gross income.  For instance, to a 50% charity, you can deduct contributions up to 50% of your AGI.  For a 30% charity, you can deduct your contributions up to 30% of your AGI.

filing single, no deductions would be approx 16,500 gross pay with a tax liability of about $2500\n\nso 14,000 net pay\n\ni belive that would put you in the 15% tax bracket
