take-home + pay
The phrase literally describes the pay you 'take home'—the money you actually bring home after deductions—so its meaning is directly derivable from the constituents 'take', 'home', and 'pay'. This compositional, descriptive pattern is transparent and likely inferable by a B1 learner who knows the individual words.
Etymology
The noun take-home pay comes from the simple picture of the money you can take home after taxes and other costs are taken out. That's why it means the amount 'you actually get' to spend.
