All 3 education and family calculators
Childcare vs Second Income Calculator
Judges a second income on what it actually leaves after the taxes it alone attracts, the childcare it makes necessary and the costs of going to work, with the dependent care credit or a dependent care FSA priced from the 2026 schedule rather than at its headline rate, and then reports the weekly childcare cost and the salary at which the job stops paying. Use it when one earner is deciding whether a job is worth taking or keeping while children are in paid care.
Education And FamilyCollege Savings 529 Planner Calculator
Prices every year of study at the price it will actually be paid at rather than multiplying one inflated year, projects a 529 account forward to the day study begins, and reports the gap three ways: the share of the cost the account covers, the amount still to find, and the level monthly contribution that would close it exactly. It also prices what the account's tax treatment is worth as a number: the growth that is never taxed plus the state deduction where a state offers one.
Education And FamilyCost of Raising a Child Calculator
Rebuilds what one child costs from the age you enter through 17 out of the published survey's own parts, the age band, the household income group, the region and the adjustment for how many children there are, and states it both in today's dollars and in the dollars of each year the money is spent, split into the seven things it goes on. Use it to replace a single national headline with a figure for your own household, and to see how much of the total is the early years, the later ones and inflation.
