1. Gorss pay = $ 5000 ( $ 60000/12 months) Less:FICA taxes = $ 382.5 ($ 5000*7.65%) Less: Federal taxes = $ 900 Less: State taxes = $ 250 Less: Health insurance = $ 400 Less: Employee benifits = $ 450
Total = $ 2617.50
2. Sky total payrol expense incudes employer portion of social security tax, medicaltax, state unemployment tax and federal unemployment tax i.e ($ 382.5+270+30)=$682.50
