Legal Question in Family Law in New York

Hi, I'm just wondering how child support is calculated in New York state? I don't want to just take my ex's word for it, and our arrangements are handled between the two of us so I calculate the amount myself. I know it isn't from gross income, but is it from your net pay? My ex claims is it gross minus only federal tax and FICA, but I want to be sure.
