aThe cost of excess group-term life insurance is added to gross wages for federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare. Employers withhold OASDI and HI tax on these amounts but are not required to withhold federal income tax. The cost is not added to gross wages for state and local taxes; therefore, it is not subject to those taxes (See Figure 4.7).
If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent. Note: You must enter in the hyphens in the social security numbers, employer identification number, etc.
