Paycheck Calculator is a free Android app also, available for iPhone to calculate your after tax income. The app is for US taxes only. If you receive your salary every week, biweekly, or monthly, you want to know how the in hand salary has been calculated. The salary slip you receive often does not have all the details on it.
