If an employee earns $2,500 for the current week and the employee's year-to-date earnings before this week were $6,800, what is the total employer payroll taxes related to the current week?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$196.70

Explanation:

The computation of the total employer payroll taxes is shown below:

= Employee earnings × social security tax rate + Employee earnings ×  Medicare tax rate + federal and state unemployment compensation × its tax rate

= $2,500 × 6% + $2,500 × 1.5% + $200 × 4.6%

= $150 + $37.50 + $9.20

= $196.70

The $ 200 is come from

= $7,000 - $6,800
