Assumptions used in this preview
- Essentials (food, transport, utilities top-up) modelled at 6.500 DKK/month for one adult.
- Rent is an indicative midpoint for a 1-bedroom (e.g. 12.500 DKK in København).
- Church tax (kirkeskat) is excluded — opt-in only.
- The 52.07% skatteloft (tax ceiling) is not applied; very high incomes will show slightly higher tax than reality.
- Employment allowance (beskæftigelsesfradrag) is not modelled.
- Pension contributions are treated as fully pre-tax up to 20%.
- Annual bonus is averaged across 12 months for the monthly net estimate.
- Offer score uses national-median benchmark — role-specific bands are premium.
- Researcher / Forskerordningen flat scheme is available only in the full Offer Intelligence.
