How to Calculate Bonuses for Employees. To calculate a bonus based on your employee's salary, just multiply the employee's salary by your bonus percentage. For example, a monthly salary of $3,000 with a 10% bonus would be $300.
Your total bonuses for the year get taxed at a 22% flat rate if they're under $1 million. If your total bonuses are higher than $1 million, the first $1 million gets taxed at 22%, and every dollar over that gets taxed at 37%. Your employer must use the percentage method if the bonus is over $1 million.
The flat withholding rate for bonuses is 22% — except when those bonuses are above $1 million. If your employee's bonus exceeds $1 million, congratulations to both of you on your success! These large bonuses are taxed at a flat rate of 37%.
The formula for the calculation of bonus is simple: Applicable Bonus = Your Salary x 8.33/100. Applicable Bonus = 7,000 x 8.33/100. Bonus Amount Eligible = 15,000 x 8.33/100. Source:
Your employer can withhold taxes in one of two ways: the percentage method or the aggregate method. The percentage method withholds taxes on your bonus at a 22% rate. The aggregate method is more complex and involves adding your bonus to your regular paycheck and withholding taxes on the total.
