What AGI Calculator does
The AGI Calculator on Financial Toolset helps users determine their Adjusted Gross Income by subtracting above-the-line adjustments from total gross income. Users enter wages, self-employment earnings, interest, dividends, capital gains, and other income, then input adjustments such as IRA contributions, HSA contributions, and student loan interest. The tool outputs the calculated AGI and indicates which tax credits that AGI level may unlock. The site explains AGI's role as the starting point for tax calculations, noting that adjustments like HSA and IRA contributions reduce taxable income even if they don't appear on a pay stub. It also provides context on how AGI affects eligibility for deductions and credits, using example scenarios to illustrate the impact of different adjustment amounts.
