Figured some monkeys on here may have an answer…

My brother works at a tech startup that got acquired. He only has Unvested, and outstanding options. Those are being paid out in cash in one lump sum. Anyone have an idea what tax/fee percent is taking out that? He’s trying to plan ahead and get an idea.

I’ve heard 22% plus state taxes, I’ve heard normal income tax… etc etc

Thanks
