Some localities in Indiana levy their own income tax, and none of it is included in the $200,000 figures here; the local income tax pages explain how it works.
These Indiana figures treat the whole $200,000 as wages, take the standard deduction, claim no dependents and include no federal credits. A pre-tax 401(k) contribution or health premium would lower taxable income and raise take-home; a second income or itemized deductions would change it again.
