| The graph below was created using Google’s chart tools.
The bar graph shows how much take home pay (net pay) is as a percentage of gross pay (salary income) for five European countries and for the United States. The European country data represents a range of take home pay as a percentage of gross salary for all European Union countries plus Russia. The range is from the lowest net pay taken home (Belgium – 49 % of gross salary) to the highest net pay taken home (Liechtenstein – 90 % of gross salary). The data on the graph is based on an AGN International survey and analysis done in Europe, summarized at a PDF file. Click here to go the file. The data for the United States is based on a Cato Institute analysis (Dean Stansel, author) done in the United States. This analysis is in a PDF file. Click here to go to the file. The graph gives a good sense of the range of take home pay in much of the industrialized west. The Cato data is dated, but likely the percentage amount has not changed materially over the years. |

The horizontal bar graph shows the 2007 per employee salary for 11 business sectors. The 2007 per employee salary amounts were calculated from US Census Bureau data that gives the total payroll for each business sector in 2007 as well as 2007’s total number of employees for the business sector. The data shows a range of average annual salaries from $14,725 for the accommodation & food services sector to a high of $75,347 for the finance & insurance sector.
