Good to know in Michigan
- Withholding ≠ final tax. If too little comes out, you owe in April; too much, you gave an interest-free loan.
- Bonuses and overtime stack on top and are taxed at your marginal rate.
- City/county add-ons aren’t modeled here — NYC, Philly, Detroit, and Maryland counties can move a check by 1–3%.
