Most of your income is taxable on the gross income level. Some items are excluded from taxable gross income (such as pretax deductions from your paycheck for child care or medical expenses). Wage earners will enter the income in box 1 of their Form W-2 which is their taxable gross income.
Other types of income are taxable at the net income level. If you have your own business, you can deduct business expenses from your gross income before adding the net income to your tax return. If you own a partnership, business expenses are deducted from gross income.

IF your NET take home paycheck was 218 after all of the necessary withholding deductions that your employer payroll department was required to withhold from your gross pay. In almost all cases, this is your "total" (or gross) income, before taxes or other with-holdings. If you are paid hourly, this is your total hours worked x rate of pay. If you are on salary, it is your salary, rather than your actual take home pay. You should try and see if your employers payroll department can give you the correct amount of your gross income BEFORE any amounts were withheld.

Is gross sales the same as gross income?
They are not the same, although they can be. Gross sales are just what it says...sales before any adjustments. Gross income would include ALL income from all sources. You could sell items, but you could also rent items (which would be shown as Rental Income). Or, you could make a loan to someone and the interest from that loan would be considered income, as well. If you do work for someone (like a mechanic), that would be considered "Labor Income". Also, just because you sell something (which would be included in Gross Sales) doesn't mean it can be regarded as Income immediately. If you accept credit cards or payment plans, a sale does not equal income until the money is actually received by you. If your business only sells items and only accepts cash for sales, then your Gross Sales and your Gross Income would probably be the same.

How do you find the average percent of your budgeting on housing utilities and etc. if you make 200 000 per year?
If your gross income is $200,000 per year, and you pay 33% in taxes, etc., that would leave a net income of $134,000 per year, or roughly $11,170 per month. Add up the last twelve months of utilities, mortgage, insurance, etc., then divide by twelve, since there are twelve months in a year, and this will give you the monthly average for your expenses. For example if the average of your monthly expenses is: * Mortgage $2,000 * Utilities $500 * Insurance $500 * Food $800 * Medical $200 * Car payments $400 * Clothing $500 * Miscellaneous $100 That would be a total of $5,000 in expenses per month, leaving an excess of $6,170 each month. Divide the total average monthly expenses by your net monthly income, which will give you approximately 45%. You then subtract .45 from 1.0 (or 45 from 100), which will give you .55 or 55%, which is the percentage of your net income used on your household budget. If you want the average based on your gross income of $200,000, then you do it the same way, by dividing the total average monthly expenses by your total monthly gross income.

Is social security disability benefits free of federal taxation?
The SSB would ONLY be free of federal income tax when you do NOT have any other worldwide income to be reported on your 1040 income tax return. If you received Social Security benefits in 2009, you need to know whether or not these benefits are taxable. Here are seven facts the Internal Revenue Service wants you to know about Social Security benefits so you can determine whether or not they are taxable to you. How much -- if any -- of your Social Security benefits are taxable depends on your total income and marital status. Generally, if Social Security benefits were your only income for 2009, your benefits are not taxable and you probably do not need to file a federal income tax return. If you received income from other sources, your benefits will not be taxed unless your modified adjusted gross income is more than the base amount for your filing status. Your taxable benefits and modified adjusted gross income are figured on a worksheet in the Form 1040A or Form 1040 Instruction booklet. You can do the following quick computation to determine whether some of your benefits may be taxable: *.First, add one-half of the total Social Security benefits you received to all your other income, including any tax exempt interest and other exclusions from income. *.Then, compare this total to the base amount for your filing status, if the total is more than your base amount, then some of your benefits may be taxable. From 50% to 85% of your SSB can become taxable income on your 1040 income tax return and would be added to all of your other gross income and taxed at your marginal tax rate. For additional information on the taxability of Social Security benefits, Go to the IRS.gov web site and use the search box for IRS Publication 915, Social Security and Equivalent Railroad Retirement Benefits.
