What is federal withholding tax

Federal withholding tax refers to the portion of an individual's income that is withheld or deducted by their employer from their paycheck to meet their federal income tax obligations.

This tax is collected by the employer on behalf of the federal government.

Federal income tax withholding = wages and salary expense - deductions

= $ 3, 175,038.50 - 148,221.14 - 34,664.62 - 127,001.54 - 784,375.00 - 31,750.39 - 1,728,772.20
