Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Constant user-supplied marginal deduction model only; sacrifice ≤gross pay and fraction ≤1. No tax bands, current tax law or benefit qualification inferred. Supported limits: All numeric inputs must be finite. Only the explicitly described mathematical scenario is supported.
