About this calculator. It is general guidance, not a payslip. The figures are estimates based on selected 2026 federal and state publications and modeled assumptions. Sources, interpretations and code may be incomplete or wrong, and the result should not be relied on as an exact calculation of tax, payroll or anything else. Your employer knows things this page cannot: a mid-year rate change, a benefit deduction, a garnishment, a local tax, or what it has already withheld this year. Nothing here is tax, legal or financial advice, and using it creates no professional relationship. For anything that turns on the exact number, ask an accountant or a qualified adviser. Methodology and sources.

Pay history and 2026 trend estimate

Each numeric bar is the published Wyoming median estimate for nurse practitioner in that year’s release. A BLS # lower bound or a year without an exact result is labelled instead of silently dropped. Bars run from zero. The 2021 method break is marked, and the earlier published bars remain visible as historical context without being joined to the post-change calculations. The separate 2026 figure is an HourlyPaycheck arithmetic extrapolation, not BLS data or a BLS forecast.

Published endpoint change
29.1%
From $102,370 in 2021 to $132,200 in 2025. The compound rate between those exact post-change endpoints is 6.6% a year; it is descriptive arithmetic, not a BLS time-series measure.
After inflation
8.1%
Adjusting the two published endpoints with the selected inflation series gives a descriptive increase from 2021 to 2025.

BLS changed the OEWS estimation method beginning with the May 2021 estimates. Pre-2021 bars remain as raw published reference points; the wage, inflation, and employment calculations use post-change endpoints only. BLS also explains that the survey’s pooled design and changes in methods or classifications limit comparisons over time. The chart itself contains no future data point. The separate 2026 card is a rounded trend scenario calculated by this site and is not part of the measured series.

BLS estimated employment at 234,690 in 2021 and 323,040 in 2025, a modeled change of 37.6% between the two published estimates.
