Question

Alan’s Affordable Running Products aka AARP has three employees:

Brandon, the Manager, who earns a salary of $52,000 per year or $1,000 per week,

Clarissa, the Sales Coordinator, who is paid $20 per hour, and

David, the Shipper, who is paid $.20 per package shipped.

Alan pays his employees every week and, this past week, Brandon worked all five scheduled days, Clarissa worked fifty (50) hours, and David shipped 4,500 packages.  Record/journalize the employees’ payroll entry (pay attention to what’s asked for) by function (Management Salary Expense, Sales Wage Expense,  & Shipping Wage Expense) now for the paychecks that will be issued this coming Friday, which will be the first time the employees are paid this calendar year.

All the employees want 20% of their earnings withheld for Federal Income Tax purposes.

The tax rates are:             FICA Social Security         6.2%                      State Unemployment     5.4%

                                                 Medicare                     1.45%                    Federal Unemployment 0.6%

Book the taxes you withhold as one entry for all three employees, not separate entries for each employee.
