How does Payroll Planner calculate taxes and deductions?

Payroll Planner calculates taxes and deductions based on the information provided by the employer and the applicable tax laws and regulations. The system takes into account factors such as the employee's salary, filing status, and any relevant allowances or exemptions. It applies the appropriate federal, state, and local tax rates to calculate the income tax amount. Additionally, Payroll Planner considers other deductions such as Social Security, Medicare, and any voluntary deductions specified by the employer.

With this automated process, employers can confidently generate payroll reports and ensure compliance with tax obligations.
