工资税为员工占纳税工资的15.3%。总的来说,社会保障是12.4%,医疗保险是2.9%,但税收与雇主之间均匀分裂。

如果您是自雇人士,您必须支付15.3%的FICA税,加上额外的Medicare税(如果适用)(我们将在一分钟内完成)。

How much employers pay in payroll taxes is 7.65% of gross taxable wages for the total FICA contribution. The Social Security portion of FICA is 6.2% of gross taxable wages. The Medicare portion of FICA is 1.45% of gross taxable wages. Self-employed? Pay the full portion of FICA tax, which is 15.3% of gross taxable wages.

Social Security

社会保障税有一个工资基础。在2021年,这个工资基础是142,800美元。工资基础意味着当员工收入超过142,800美元时,您将停止扣留和促进社会保障税。

由于工资基础,雇主每名雇员每名2021美元的最高金额为9,139.20美元(142,800 x 6.2%)。

看看一个例子。让我们说你有一名员工均为2,000 000 006 000 0006:

$ 2,000 x 6.2%= $ 124

The employer cost of payroll tax is $124.

Keep in mind that some pre-tax deductions (e.g., Section 125 plans) can lower the gross taxable wages and impact how much you contribute per employee paycheck.

例如,一名员工总工资为每周1,500美元和500美元的第125条扣除额为1,000美元,占纳税工资(1,500美元 - 500美元)。因此,您可以在1,000美元而不是1,500美元计算社会保障:

$1,000 X 6.2% = $62

社会保障税的雇主费用为62美元。

Medicare

与社会保障不同,Medicare taxes不要有一个工资基础。相反,Medicare为赚取超​​过一定金额的员工提供额外的扣缴税。在2021年,这个基准金额为200,000美元(单身)。因此,2021年赚取超过200,000美元的员工支付1.45%,另外0.9%到Medicare。

Do employers pay the additional Medicare tax? No, employers only pay 1.45%, even if an employee earns more than $200,000. Additional Medicare tax only applies to employees.

For example, an employee earns $250,000 per year, so the employee pays 1.45% on the $250,000 in wages, plus 0.9% on the $50,000 over $200,000.

计算整个工资的医疗保险税:

$ 250,000 x 1.45%= 3,625美元

As the employer, you only pay $3,625 for Medicare taxes on the employee’s $250,000.

Because the employee pays the additional Medicare tax, find the total tax amount for $50,000 ($250,000 – $200,000):

$50,000 X 0.9% = $450

Add together the totals for both to find the total the employee pays:

$3,625 + $450 = $4,075

The employee pays $450 more in Medicare taxes than the employer in this example.

Like Social Security taxes, pre-tax deductions may impact Medicare tax calculations. Subtract applicable pre-tax deductions from the total gross wages before calculating the Medicare tax amount to withhold and contribute.

例如,您的员工每周赚1,500美元,但有500美元的第125条扣除。在纳税工资总额1,000美元计算医疗保险税(1,500美元 - $ 500):

$ 1,000 x 1.45%= $ 14.50

扣留并为医疗保险税缴纳14.50美元。

自雇税

If you are self-employed, pay the entire cost of payroll taxes (aka自营税收)。并且,如果您每年获得超过阈值,也要支付0.9%的Medicare税。

让我们说每年赚100,000美元。您将支付12.4%的社会保障税:

$100,000 X 12.4% = $12,400

因为您没有达到Medicare的工资基础,因此不要支付额外的0.9%。但是,您必须支付2.9%的Medicare:

$ 100,000 x 2.9%= $ 2,900

加入社会保障和医疗保险的金额:

$ 12,400 + $ 2,900 = 15,300美元

您还可以通过整个FICA税乘以您的总工资:

$ 10,000 x 15.3%= 15,300美元

如果您赚取超过142,800美元,请停止计算工资基础上方的工资社会保障税。如果您赚取超过200,000美元(单人),则额外医疗保险税将所有收入乘以3.8%。

雇主才能税收

除了雇主 - 雇员的工资税税,还有雇主代表雇员支付的其他工资单。这两个主要税是:

  1. Federal unemployment tax(Fute)
  2. 国家失业税(SUTA)*

*一些州(例如,宾夕法尼亚州)包括国家失业税,作为雇员缴纳税。请与您的州核实,看看您的员工是否必须缴纳失业。

Federal unemployment tax is 6.0% on the first $7,000 in employee wages. However, most states and businesses receive a tax credit of 5.4% and only pay 0.6% to FUTA. So, the maximum amount most employers pay into FUTA each year per employee is $42 ($7,000 X 0.6%). If a business or state does not receive the tax credit, the maximum amount per employee is $420 ($7,000 X 6%).

国家失业税和工资基础因国家而异。通常情况下,雇主每年从国家提供关于他们的Suta率的通知。国家基础雇主对许多因素,包括您在商业的时间长短,失业索赔的数量等。与您的国家检查,以确定工资基础和失业税率。

Your state may have additional taxes you pay as an employer (e.g.,privilege tax)。Contact your state for more information.
