We know how important it is, but it's hard to get excited about spreadsheets and percentages sometimes!

Description

If you just want the 2023 filing year and no updates, you can find it here.
Taxes... am I right? It's a traditionally hard topic to teach where students can get lost in the math and calculations of our federal and state tax bracket system. This resource is here to help! Students will be given a salary (gross pay), filing status, state of residence, paycheck frequency, and 401k contribution (Traditional and Roth!) which they will have to use to determine how much money they can expect to get in their paychecks.
This hands-on activity allows students to see how FICA taxes are calculated, what happens in the bracket system at the federal and state level, and how Traditional or Roth retirement (401k, IRA, 403b, 457, TSP) contributions impact taxable income as well as paycheck amounts.
