2. Establish and complete the payroll register for each weekly pay period during December. When calculating federal income tax withholding, use the withholding tables where possible, and refer to the percentage method only when necessary. For simplicity, calculate the state income tax withholding as 5% of each employee's taxable pay (which is the same as taxable pay for FWT). Recall that state income tax withholding would ordinarily be calculated using the applicable state's withholding tables. Payroll checks are remitted to the employees in the same order (Cranston, Harrison, Parker, Sternberg) each pay period and are written from a bank account that is used solely for these payments. The first payroll check written in December is check #762.
