Gross pay is the pay you get before any deductions and what you actually get to take away is the net pay. Deduction may include:
tax,
national insurance (UK),
payments on court instruction (eg maintenance if you've been misbehaving),
charitable donations from pay,
repayment of loans from employer.

Gross pay is calculated before taxes are taken into consideration where net pay is the amount of money you make after tax.
Gross is what is made prior to all tax deductions. Net pay is the actual amount made. For instance if your check before taxes is $500 that is your gross pay. If after taxes it is $409 that is your net pay. The same can be applied to volume.
Net pay = gross pay - deductions. Or in percentages: Net pay = gross pay x (1 - percentage of deductions / 100) If you have any two of these, you can solve the third. For example, in the last formula: gross pay = net pay / (1 - percentage of deductions / 100)
Your gross pay would be $145. Customarily, you can get a good estimate of your net pay by subtracting the roughly 20% in deductions that the government imposes. So you multiply that by .8 - which shows what 80% of the gross is. Thus your net pay will be approximately $116.
Subtract.Gross is the amount you started with. Net is the amount you have left after some was taken away. (for whatever reason)Examples:If you gross $1000 in earnings and than pay $200 in taxes, you net $800 because: (1000 - 200 = 800).If you gross $1000 in sales volume but it cost you $900 to produce the items you sold; your net would be $100 profit because: (1000 - 900 = 100).
First your paycheck with your NET take home pay (net pay after all deductions) that you have in your hand will not have anything withheld from it because it is issued to you after all of the necessary taxes and other amounts that the employer is required to withhold from your gross wages, salary, earnings, etc.You should get this information from your employer payroll department as they will be the one that would know how much FICA, federal income tax, state income, local taxes, etc they will have to withhold from your hourly pay or gross pay for the pay period. They will do this before they issue your net take home paycheck to you
