A 7% raise on $100,000: what you actually get (2026)
A 7% raise takes a $100,000 salary to $107,000 — $7,000 more a year before tax. After federal income tax and FICA you keep about $4,924 of it: $189 more per bi-weekly paycheck, $410 a month (70.3% of the raise; the rest is tax at your 29.6% marginal rate). State income tax, where you have one, takes a further slice — pick your state in the calculator, which opens with old and new salary side by side.
