Part of your income now reaches the 22% federal bracket. Because brackets are marginal, only the dollars inside that bracket are taxed at 22% — your average (effective) rate stays well below your top rate. Pre-tax retirement contributions are especially efficient at this income because each dollar deferred avoids tax at your highest marginal rate.

Indiana note: State adjusted-gross-income tax rate 2.95% for 2026 (scheduled to fall to 2.90% in 2027). Indiana counties levy separate local income taxes that are NOT included in this estimate.
