Gross income: the overall income, from which expenses and tax are not yet deducted. Net income: the pure income, left after deducting all expenses and tax. Taxable income: the income before tax, deducted all expenses except tax.
Gross Income - Above the Line Deductions = Adjusted Gross Income - (Deductions +Exemptions)= Taxable Income
Gross wage amount would be your total earned income for the year on line 7 page 1 of your 1040 federal income tax return. Taxable amount would be the amount that ends up on page 2 line 43 of the 1040 federal income tax return.

Taxable income is described as gross income or adjusted gross income minus any deductions or exemptions. Taxable income can also come from appreciated assets that have been sold or capitalized in that tax year.

Most of your income is taxable on the gross income level. Some items are excluded from taxable gross income (such as pretax deductions from your paycheck for child care or medical expenses). Wage earners will enter the income in box 1 of their Form W-2 which is their taxable gross income. Other types of income are taxable at the net income level. If you have your own business, you can deduct business expenses from your gross income before adding the net income to your tax return. If you own a partnership, business expenses are deducted from gross income.
Another word for gross income is taxable income. This is the income before taxes are taking out.
In the Internal Revenue Code there is a tax imposed upon taxable income and that is defined as gross income or adjusted gross income which amounts to income earned in a taxable year by a taxpayer. A taxpayer is any person subject to any revenue laws. Is that clear? It isn't to me, and I remain astounded that so many people will claim that such circumlocution is clear to them. A tax imposed upon taxable income does not answer what the subject of the tax is. Is taxable income the same as income? If it is then why is taxable income defined as gross income or adjusted gross income but income itself never defined? Is income the subject of the Personal Income Tax Law? Who are the taxable persons? Those persons made liable for a tax are. How do we know who has been made liable to a tax by understanding that a tax was imposed upon taxable income?
One is better than the other.
