After-tax income is cash income less: individual income tax net of refundable credits; corporate income tax; payroll taxes (Social Security; Medicare); and estate tax.
The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (ATRA) was passed by the U.S. Senate on January 1, 2013, and was signed into law by President Barack Obama on January 2, 2013. Its main purpose is the partial resolution to the United States fiscal cliff.
