Differentiating between Gross and Net Pay

1. Gross pay consists of wages or commissions earned by the employee before deductions Net Pay is the amount of cash the employee receives after all deductions.

2. Student answers may vary but should include: Qualifying medical or dental plans, Internal Revenue Code Section 125 plans, 401(k) retirement plans, federal income tax, Medicare tax, Social Security tax, state income tax, garnishments, charitable contributions, union dues.

3. To “gross up” a payroll amount is to calculate the amount of gross pay necessary to receive a net pay result. This is often done with bonuses.

How Much to Withhold?

1. $52,000 paid semimonthly would give per pay period of $2,166.67.

$52,000/24 = $2,166.67

a) Wage-bracket - $143

b) Percentage method: (Table 3)

$2,166.67 – ($175.00 x 2) = $1,816.67

$1,816.67 – $1,300 = $516.67

$516.67 x 12% = $62.00

$62.00 + $80.80 = $144.90

SM 5-1

2. $2,166.67 gross pay - $100 for 401(k) deduction per pay period = $2,066.67 taxable pay

This is the new amount used in conjunction with the wage-bracket table to calculate the federal income tax withheld of $131. The difference in taxes with the 401(k) deduction is $12 = $143

131.

3. $127 = $2,166.67 - $75 in health insurance - $55 AFLAC = $2,036.67 taxable pay.

FICA Taxes

1. Social Security: $327.36 = $5,280 x .062; Medicare = $76.56 = $5,280 x .0145

2. Total liability: $807.84 = ($327.36 + $76.56) x 2

3. $250,000 / 24 = $10,416.67 per pay period - $75 for Section 125 deduction = $10,341.67 subject to FICA taxes each period.

a) $0 Social Security liability because the maximum amount of wages taxable for social security is $132,900 and she has exceeded that.; Her semi-monthly salary is $250,000 / 24 = 10,416.67. Medicare taxable earnings would be reduced by the qualified insurance deduction, $10,416.67-75 = 10,341.67. Year-to-date gross wages of $197,916.67 less qualified deduction $1,425 ($75 x 19) gives $196,491.67 of YTD Medicare taxable earnings. Medicare base for this payroll is $200,000 – 196,491.67 =, $3,508.33 to reach

Medicare tax.

b) Medicare liability will be: ($10,416.67 – 75.00) x (.0145 + .009) = $243.03

State and Local Income Taxes

1. April’s state tax: $62,500 / 26 = $2,403.85

$2,403.85 – 150 for 401(k) – 80 for Section 125 = $2,173.85

$2,173.85 x 1.125% = $24.46

2. Rick’s state income tax: $131.96 = $2,850 x .0463; local $5.75

Post-tax Deductions

1. a, b, d

2. Because the IBEW requires that employees’ union dues be remitted by the employer, the amount due must be deducted on a post-tax basis from his period pay.

1. Cash, check, direct deposit, paycard, and cryptocurrencies

SM 5-3

1. What are the four factors that affect how much federal income tax is withheld from an employee’s pay?

a. Frequency of the payroll period, employee marital status, the number of withholding exemptions claimed on the employee’s Form W-4, and the amount of the wage payment

2. How is Social Security tax computed? What is the maximum wage base?

a. Social Security tax is computed by multiplying the employee’s gross pay, less allowable deductions, by 6.2 percent. The wage base for 2019 is $132,900.

3. How is Medicare tax computed? What is the maximum wage base?

a. Medical tax is computed by multiplying the employee’s gross pay, less allowable deductions, by 1.45 percent. There is no maximum wage base for Medicare tax; however, the Affordable Care Act stipulated that employees earning more than $200,000 (averaged for this text) must have an additional 0.9 percent withheld for their Medicare tax contribution.

4. Name four states that do not have an income tax for employees (Student answers may vary among the following list).

a. Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Texas, Tennessee, Washington, and Wyoming

5. How is an employee’s net income computed?

a. Net income equals the employee’s gross pay less income tax withholdings, FICA tax deductions, other mandatory deductions, and voluntary deductions.

6. Why is the difference between gross pay and taxable income important?

a. The difference between gross pay and taxable income is important because of the pretax deductions that reduce an employee’s liability for income tax withholdings.

SM 5-4

7. What are the five different pay methods?

a. Cash, check, direct deposit, paycard, and cryptocurrency.

8. What are advantages and disadvantages of paycards?

a. Paycards allow the employees to receive their wages rapidly and securely on the pay date without needing to have a bank account. A disadvantage is that the paycard is often handled like cash, so if it is lost or stolen, the employee risks losing money.

9. What are advantages and disadvantages of direct deposit?

a. Direct deposit is advantageous because it allows employees to receive their wages quickly and securely on the pay date. The disadvantage is that the employee must have an established bank account where the funds will be deposited.

10. How does the percentage method work?

a. . When using the percentage method, the deduction for each withholding allowance is subtracted prior to computing the taxes. The taxable income is then examined with the filing status to determine the tier in which the tax will be applied. An amount is subtracted at the tier and the remaining balance is multiplied by the rate with a set amount added to the calculation.

11. When should the percentage method be used instead of the wage-bracket method?

a. The percentage method is appropriate when the employee has more than 10 exemptions, when the gross pay exceeds the maximum amount for the wage-bracket table, or when the employee’s pay period is nonstandard (i.e., daily, quarterly, or annually).

12. What are two examples of garnishments?

Copyright © 2020 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education.

SM 5-5

a. Student answers may vary but should include: Child support, consumer credit, liens, or other court judgements.

13. Why are garnishments deducted on a post-tax basis?

a. They are viewed as a post-tax obligation from disposable income. Not all employee elections will reduce the amount available to pay the garnishment.

14. Why are union dues not considered a garnishment?

a. Union dues are considered a membership fee as part of employment for the negotiation of salaries, benefits, and working conditions. It is voluntary to be in the union in most states.

15. How does cryptocurrency function as a payroll payment method?

a. Cryptocurrency uses Internet technology to securely transfer money from one “wallet” to another. It is a purely electronic currency.

16. Why has cryptocurrency not yet been fully adopted as an employee payment method?

a. Since cryptocurrency is purely electronic, and not backed by a physical currency, there is a wide fluctuation in valuation, and this can lead to “underpayment” of employees as the cryptocurrency loses value. Governmental guidance will likely need to occur.

CRITICAL THINKING

For the following problems use the following steps to compute the gross-up amount:

1. Compute tax rate: The tax rate on bonuses is 22 percent. The Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare taxes (1.45%) must be added to this rate. For bonuses, the total tax rate equals 22% + 6.2% +1.45%, or 29.65%

2. Subtract 100% - Tax rate percentage to get the Net tax rate. For bonuses, it is 100%29.65%, or 70.35%

3. Gross-up amount = Net pay / Net tax rate. For example, if you want the employee to receive a $150 bonus, the equation is $150 / 70.35% = $213.22

(Note: Typically voluntary pre-tax and post-tax deductions are not withheld from bonus checks.)

5-1. Vicky Le, an employee of Sweet Shoppe Industries, receives a bonus of $5,000 for her stellar work. Her boss wants Vicky to receive $5,000 on the check. She contributes 3% of her pay in a pre-tax deduction to her 401(k). Calculate the gross pay amount that would result in $5,000 paid to Vicky.

Answer:

Tax rate: 22% (bonus) + 7.65% (FICA) = 29.65%

Grossed-up pay= $5,000/ (100% - 29.65%) = $7,107.32

For the February 8, 2019, pay period, use the gross pay totals from the end of Chapter 4 and compute the net pay for each employee. Once you have computed the net pay (using the wagebracket tables in Appendix C), state withholding tax for Vermont is computed at 3.55 percent of taxable wages (i.e., gross pay less pre-tax deductions). Note that the first pay period comprises only one week of work during the February 8 pay period and that the federal income tax should be determined using the biweekly tables in Appendix C.
