Net pay

Explanation / Answer

1)

Gross Wage = 1040

federal income taxes = 104

FICA Social Security tax = 6.2%*1040 = 64.48

FICA Medicare Tax = 1.45%*1040 = 15.08

Net Pay = 1040 - 104-64.48-15.08

Net Pay = $ 856.44

2& 3)

Payroll expenses

FICA Tax payable - Social security = 6.2%*1040 = 64.48

FICA Tax payable - Medicare Tax = 1.45%*1040 = 15.08

FUTA = 0.6%*1040 = 6.24

SUTA = 4%*1040 = 41.60
