- Example: -$1000.00 gross pay (negative)
- Depending on TSRI flags of gross pay, Federal Withholding, Social Security, Medicare, Retirement, etc., Taxable Grosses will be reduced which will result in negative deduction amounts for these taxes.
- Federal Taxable Wages… -$1,000.00 - (-$30.00) = -$970.00 [FRS 3% Deduct reduces]
- Social Security, Medicare and Retirement Taxable Wages… -$1,000.00
- Federal Withholding = for this example assume -$15.00
- FRS 3% Deduction = -$30.00
- FRS 10% Contribution = -$100.00
- Social Security deduction and contribution = -$62.00
- Medicare deduction and contribution = -$14.50
- Net Pay = -$1,000.00 - (-$15.00) - (-$30.00) - (-$62.00) - (-$14.50) = -$878.50
It will allow positive deduction adjustments with no gross pay.
- Example: $50 deduction adjustment
- Depending on TSRI flags of deduction, Federal, Social Security, Medicare, Retirement, etc., Taxable Grosses will be reduced which will result in negative deduction amounts for these taxes. In the example of $50 deduction adjustment, if the deduction reduces Social Security and Medicare Taxable Grosses, Social Security deduction and contribution would be -$3.10 each and Medicare deduction and contributions would be -$.73 each.
To compute Net Pay:
- Begin with $0.00 Gross Pay
- Subtract $50.00 deduction
- Subtract -$3.10 Social Security deduction
- Subtract -$.73 Medicare deduction
- $0.00 - $50.00 - (-$3.10) - (-$.73) = -$46.17
