Self-employment tax covers Social Security and Medicare contributions. In the US, it's 15.3% on net self-employment income. As a freelancer, you pay both the employee and employer portions.
Business expenses are deducted from your gross income before tax is calculated. This reduces your taxable income and therefore your total tax bill. Common deductions include software, equipment, home office, and professional services.
These are simplified estimates based on approximate tax rates. Actual taxes depend on deductions, credits, local taxes, and other factors. Always consult a tax professional for precise calculations.
