  23. Follow My Example 11-1 0 11-1 • $60,000 • $59,400 [$60,000 – ($60,000 x 6% x 60/360)] For Practice: PE 11-1A, PE 11-1B 23

  24. 0 11-2 Objective 2 Determine employer liabilities for payroll, including liabilities arising from employee earnings and deductions from earnings.

  25. 0 11-2 11-2 Payroll refers to the amount paid to employees for the services they provide during a period. It is usually significant for several reasons. • Employees are sensitive to payroll errors and irregularities. • The payroll is subject to various federal and state regulations. • The payroll and related payroll taxes have a significant effect on the net income of most businesses.

  26. 0 11-2 Wages usually refers to payment for manual labor, both skilled and unskilled. The rate of wages is normally stated on an hourly or weekly basis.

  27. 0 11-2 Salary usually refers to payment for managerial, administrative, or similar services, normally expressed in terms of a month or a year.

  28. 0 11-2 The total earnings of an employee for a payroll period are called gross pay. From this is subtracted one or more deductions to arrive at the net pay. Net pay is the amount that the employer must pay the employee.

  29. 0 11-2 McGrath Illustration John T. McGrath is employed by McDermott Supply Co. at the rate of $34 per hour, plus 1.5 times the normal hourly rate for hours over 40 per week. For the week ended December 27, McGrath worked 42 hours. Earnings at base rate (40 x $34) $1,360 Earnings at overtime rate (2 x $51) 102 Total earnings $1,462 29

  30. 0 11-2 For this illustration assume the standard withholding allowance of $63*. Thus, the wages used in determining McGrath’s withholding for the week are $1,399 ($1,462 – $63). *The actual IRS standard withholding allowance changes every year and was $63.46 for 2006.

  31. 0 11-2 Wage Bracket Withholding Table McGrath wage bracket Source: Publication 15, Employer’s Tax Guide, Internal Revenue Service, 2006 31

  32. 0 11-2 McGrath Example (Continued) Initial withholding $ 78.30 Plus ($1,399 – $620) x 25% 194.75 Total federal income taxes withheld $273.05 32

  33. Example Exercise 11-2 0 11-2 Karen Dunn’s weekly gross earnings for the present week were $2,250. Dunn has two exemptions. Using the wage bracket withholding table in Exhibit 3 (Slide 31) with a $63 standard withholding allowance for each exemption, what is Dunn’s federal income tax withholding? 33

  34. Follow My Example 11-2 Total wage payment $2,250 One allowance (provided by IRS) $63 Multiplied by allowances claimed on W-4 x 2 126 Amount subject to withholding $2,124 0 11-2 Initial withholding from wage bracket $275.55 Plus additional withholding: 28% of excess over $1,409 200.20* Federal income tax withholding $475.75 *28% x ($2,124 – $1,409) 34 For Practice: PE 11-2A, PE 11-2B

  35. 0 11-2 FICA Tax The amount of FICA tax withheld is the employees’ contribution to two federal programs. The first program, called social security, is for old age, survivors, and disability insurance (OASDI). The second program, called Medicare, is health insurance for senior citizens.

  36. 0 11-2 John T. McGrath’s FICA Tax Earnings subject to 6% social security tax ($100,000 – $99,038) $ 962 Social security tax rate x 6% Social security tax $57.72 Earnings subject to 1.5% Medicare tax $1,462 Medicare tax rate x 1.5% Medicare tax 21.93 Total FICA tax $79.65 36

  37. 0 11-2 11-2 Computing McGrath’s Net Pay John T. McGrath’s net pay: Gross earnings for the week $1,462.00 Deductions: Social security tax (Slide 37) $ 57.72 Medicare tax (Slide 33) 21.93 Federal income tax (Slide 33) 273.05 Retirement savings 20.00 United Way 5.00 Total deductions 377.70 Net pay $1,084.30 37

  38. Example Exercise 11-3 0 11-2 Karen Dunn’s weekly gross earnings for the week ending Dec. 3rd were $2,250, and her federal income tax withholding was $475.75. Prior to this week Dunn had earned $98,000 for the year. Assuming the social security rate is 6% on the first $100,000 of annual earnings and Medicare is 1.5% of all earnings, what is Dunn’s net pay? 38

  39. Follow My Example 11-3 0 11-2 Total wage payment $2,250.00 Less: Federal income tax withholding 475.75 Earnings subject to social security tax ($100,000 – $98,000) $2,000 Social security tax rate x 6% Social security tax 120.00 Medicare tax ($2,250 x 1.5%) 33.75 Net pay $1,620.50 For Practice: PE 11-3A, PE 11-3B 39

  40. 0 11-2 11-2 Employer’s Federal Payroll Taxes Employers are required to contribute to the social security and Medicare programs for each employee. The employer must match the employee’s contribution to each program.

  41. 0 11-2 11-2 Employer’s Federal Unemployment Taxes A FUTA tax of 6.2% is levied on employersonlyto provide for temporary unemployment to those who become unemployed as a result of layoffs due to economic causes beyond their control. This tax applies to only the first $7,000 of the earnings of each covered employee during a calendar year.

  42. 0 11-2 11-2 Employer’s State Unemployment Taxes Employers in most states also must pay a state unemployment tax for unemployed workers. A few states require employee contributions. The state plan is designed to reward firms with stable employment, so the tax rate varies from state to state and employer to employer.

  44. 0 11-3 Objective 3 Describe payroll accounting systems that use a payroll register, employee earnings records, and a general journal.

  45. 0 11-3 Payroll Register The payroll register is a multicolumn report used for summarizing the data for each payroll period. The last two columns of the payroll register are used to accumulate the total wages or salaries to be debited to various expense accounts. The process is usually called payroll distribution.
