Taxable Earnings

The Federal Unemployment Tax Act (or FUTA, I.R.C. ch. 23) is a United States federal law that imposes a federal employer tax used to help fund state workforce agencies. Employers report this tax by filing an annual Form 940 with the Internal Revenue Service.

In the Totals row, complete the following:

  1. Net FUTA tax: Since this is the first pay period of the year, none of the employees are near the $7,000 ceiling; therefore, each employees gross earnings is subject to the FUTA tax. (The employer rate is 0.6%).
  2. SUTA tax: Since Kipley Company is a new employer, Pennsylvania has assigned the company a contribution rate of 3.689% on the first $10,000 of each employees earnings.

Note: Round your final answers to nearest cent.
