How far am I from the next federal tax bracket?
Your next bracket starts at a salary of about $125,725, which is $15,725 more than you earn now. Income above that point is taxed at 24%.
How much would a 401(k) contribution lower my take-home pay?
Putting 10% ($11,000) of $110,000 into a traditional 401(k) lowers your take-home pay by about $8,580. That is less than the contribution because it also reduces your federal income tax.
