To compute the tax using the percentage method, follow the steps illustrated below.
Step 1
Determine the amount of gross wages earned, marital status, number of allowances, and frequency of pay. Note: If the wage ends in a fractional dollar amount, the wage may be rounded to the nearest dollar. However, in this text, exact wages are used.
➡
Wilson Goodman, single, claims two allowances and earns $915.60 semimonthly.
Step 2
Multiply the number of allowances claimed by the amount of one allowance for the appropriate payroll period, as shown in the Table of Allowance Values in Figure 4.6.
➡
Table of Allowance Values for semimonthly payroll period shows $175.00.
Multiply $175.00 × 2 = $350.00
Step 3
Subtract the amount for the number of allowances claimed from the employee’s gross pay to find the excess of wages over allowances claimed.
➡
Gross pay
