How This Calculator Works
On a $75,000 salary paid every two weeks, each Arkansas paycheck starts at $2,885. About $295 goes to federal income tax, $221 to Social Security and Medicare and $104 to Arkansas income tax, leaving about $2,265 before any 401(k), insurance or other deductions.
That state withholding is 24th of 51, near the middle, $4 more than the typical state per paycheck ($116 over a year).
Among neighboring states, Tennessee leaves the most: about $2,369 per paycheck on the same salary, $104 more than Arkansas. Where you pay income tax depends mainly on where you live and work, so check the rules before moving across a state line.
A real Arkansas pay stub can differ a little from these figures, because the estimate spreads the year's tax evenly across your paychecks instead of using your employer's withholding tables.
