Performance Objectives

1. Understand the role of laws that affect payroll deductions and contributions

2. Calculate total earnings based on an hourly, piece-rate, or commission basis

3. Determine deductions using tables of employees’ income tax withholding


Performance Objectives

4. Complete a payroll register

5. Journalize the payroll entry from a payroll register

6. Maintain employees’ individual earnings records


Employer Requirements

• To withhold federal and state taxes from employees’ paychecks

• To pay the withholdings (as well as other payments) to government agencies before specific deadlines

• To submit federal and state reports on official forms

• This makes payroll accounting very important!


Required Payroll Records

Calendar Year

• A twelve-month period beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31 of the same year


Employees and Independent Contractors

• Employee– Under “direction and control” of employer

• Independent contractor– Someone who is engaged for a definite job or

service– Not under “direction and control” of employer– Decides how to do his or her own work

• Payments to independent contractors not subject to withholding or payroll taxes


Objective 1

Understand the role of laws that affect payroll deductions and contributions


Laws Affecting Employees’ Pay Deductions

• Fair Labor Standards Act– The act of 1938 that provides for minimum

standards for wages and overtime, including provisions related to child labor and equal pay for equal work

• Current Tax Payment Act– An act to require employers to withhold

and pay to the Internal Revenue Service employee funds


Laws Affecting Employees’ Pay Deductions

• FICA Tax (employees’ share)– Social Security Act of 1935 and its

amendments provide benefits for retired workers, their spouses and minor children, disability insurance, Medicare, and supplemental security income

– Employees contribute 6.2 percent on first $84,900 earned in a calendar year for Social Security

– Employees contribute 1.45 percent on all earnings in calendar year for Medicare


Laws Affecting Employer’s Payroll Tax Contributions

• Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA)

• State Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA)

• Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA)

• Workers’ compensation laws


FICA Taxes

• Social Security taxes plus Medicare taxes, paid by both employee and employer under the provisions of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act

• Employer matches employee contribution


State Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA)

• A tax levied only on the employer in most states

• Rates differ among the various states; however, they are generally 5.4 percent or higher on the first $7,000 of total earnings paid to each employee during the calendar year

• Proceeds used to pay subsistence benefits to unemployed workers


Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA)

• A tax levied only on the employer, equal to 0.8 percent of the first $7,000 of total earnings paid to each employee during the calendar year

• This tax is used to support government-run employment offices throughout the country


Workers’ Compensation Laws

• Laws that protect employees and dependents against losses due to death or injury incurred on the job


Payment Periods

• Weekly

• Bi-weekly– 26 times a year

• Semimonthly– 24 times a year

• Monthly


Earnings

• Wages– Contract states hourly, weekly, or piecework rate of pay

• Salary– Contract states monthly or yearly earnings

• Overtime—generally 1 ½ pay, minimums per FLSA• Supplemental pay

– Commissions– Bonuses– Cost-of-living adjustments– Profit sharing

• Paid by– Check or cash– Other assets (recorded at market value, or fair value)


Performance Objective 2

Calculate total earnings based on an hourly, piece-rate, or commission basis


Payroll• In earlier chapters we have seen:

• The $1,400.00 is really gross pay before deductions• Gross pay (or earnings)

– Total amount before deductions

• Deductions– Amounts taken out of an employee’s paycheck each pay period

• “Take home pay” or net pay– Gross pay minus deductions

Employees’ Federal Income Tax Withholding: Employer Requirements

• Withhold federal income taxes from employees’ paychecks

• Pay the withheld federal income taxes to the IRS

• Keep required records


Basis of Federal Income Tax Withholding

• Taxable earnings– The amount of an

employee’s earnings subject to a tax

• Marital status

• Number of withholding allowances claimed

• Withholding allowance– Amount of earnings that

are exempt from federal income tax

– How many?• One for personal

• One for spouse

• One for each dependent

• Exemption– Amount of yearly

earnings that are not taxed


Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate (Form W-4)

• A form that specifies the number of allowances claimed by each employee

• Gives the employer the authority to withhold money for an employee’s federal income taxes and FICA taxes

• Must be filled out by every employee



Circular E

• Actual book or downloadable files to use in spreadsheet or accounting program provided free of charge by IRS to employers

• Contains withholding tables– Federal income tax– FICA

• Social Security• Medicare

• Lists rules for employer’s deposits• Lists requirements for submitting reports


Wage-Bracket Tax Tables

• Tables providing the amounts to be deducted for income taxes based on earnings, marital status, and number of allowances claimed

• Payment periods covered– Monthly– Semimonthly– Biweekly– Weekly– Daily


Using the Tables to Determine Deductions

• Step 1: Select correct table for payment period and marital status

• Step 2: Locate gross pay in first two columns• Step 3: Find column for number of

withholding allowances• Intersection shows amount of federal income

tax to withhold from paycheck• Be careful of:

– “At least”– “But less than”


State Income Tax Withholding

• State tablesor

• Percentage of federal income tax deduction– Textbook assumes that employee’s state

income tax deduction is 20% of the federal income tax deduction


FICA Taxes

• Social Security Taxes

• Federal taxes levied on employees and employers

• Proceeds used for– Pension payments

after a worker has reached 62 years

– Disability benefits for disabled worker and dependents

• Medicare Taxes• Federal taxes levied

on employees and employers

• Proceeds used for medical insurance for eligible people age 65 or over


FICA Taxes

• Social Security rate = 6.2%(number equivalent = .062)– Only the first $84,900 of earnings are taxed

• Medicare rate = 1.45%(number equivalent = .0145)– All earnings are taxed

• Applied to gross earnings during a calendar year

• Calculated separately because of the different upper limits for two types of taxes


Calculating FICA Taxes
