Damerly Company (a Utah employer) wants to give a holiday bonus check of $250 to each employee. Since it wants the check amount to be $250, it will need to gross-up the amount of the bonus. Calculate the withholding taxes and the gross amount of the bonus to be made to John Rolen if his cumulative earnings for the year are $46,910. Besides being subject to social security taxes and federal income tax (supplemental rate), a 4.95% Utah income tax must be withheld on supplemental payments.
Enter deductions beginning with a minus sign (-). You may need to adjust by a penny (subtract or add) to the gross amount to get net pay to calculate exactly to $250.00. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
