A multi-year calculator for comparing salary, bonuses, sign-on payments, RSUs, refresh grants, taxes, and take-home pay.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-26 issue.

Field notes

The planner combines offer inputs with an eight-year projection covering salary growth, stock appreciation, initial-grant vesting, and recurring refresher grants. Its output distinguishes cash from all-in compensation and shows annual federal income tax, state planning estimates, Social Security, Medicare, and pre-tax deductions. The example uses a $190,000 base, a $100,000 initial equity grant, a $30,000 sign-on payment, and a 25%-per-year refresher vesting pattern.
