56. Angel hired Chris as a housekeeper starting on January 2 at $825 monthly. Angel does not withhold any federal taxes. Assume that Chris is not a housekeeper for anyone else. Assume that Angel paid $2,475 in wages for the fourth quarter of 2024.

  1. How much in Social Security tax should Angel pay?

First, we need to figure out the annual salary. $825 (monthly salary) x 12 (months) = $9,900 (Annual salary). Then, multiply by the percentage of social security tax for both employee and employer (6.2% each). $9,900 x 12.4% = $1,2276

  1. How much Medicare tax should Angel pay?

$9,900(Annual salary) x 2.9%(1.45 employee & employer) = $287.1

  1. How much FUTA tax should Angel pay?

$9,900 (Annual salary) - $7,000 = $2,900 (overage). Since Chris is self-employed, he must contribute for both employer and employee at 6% totaling $420.
