What this result means

The result is a personal budget calculation, not a salary or living-cost forecast. A negative result shows the amount by which entered expenses exceed income.

How to use it

  • Use take-home income, not gross salary, if you know it.
  • Include irregular costs in “other” as a monthly average.

Frequently asked questions

Should I enter gross or take-home salary?

Take-home income gives a more useful savings estimate because deductions have already been removed.

Is money sent home counted as spending?

It is separated as remittance so you can see how it affects money remaining in Korea.

Does the annual result include interest?

No. It is simply the monthly result multiplied by 12.
