Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
  19,000 income tax withholding
    5,000 FICA withholding

130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500

<span>The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.

FICA, <span> Federal Insurance Contributions Act,</span> is composed of
1) <span>6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) <span>1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.
