Message:: [QUOTE="Sequoia, post: 3351963, member: 53978"]Hey guys and gals, I've got a finances question here.I've been looking at my settlements recently and figuring out how much more or less I would be making if I wasn't getting per diem taken out. So I pulled up one settlement and took the total miles for one particular trip and calculated the regular non per diem amount. Then I subtracted my current base rate (on per diem) and then subtracted the per diem rate. In one trip I would have made $62 more. On another trip I would have made $20 more. (now mind you I was looking at individual trips on one particular pay check so on this one in particular I would have made at least $82 more, plus the other 2 trips that were on that particular check that) But my question to you is, if I stop per diem, how much more in taxes will be taken out? Will I still be coming out ahead or will the taxes off-set the extra I would have made?[/QUOTE]
