Answer:

a.

Date               Account Title                                              Debit            Credit

June 17          Salaries and Wages Expense                 $256,000

                      Social Security taxes Payable                                       $13,824

                       Medicare taxes payable                                                 $3,840

                       Federal income tax payable                                         $51,200

                        Salaries and Wages Payable                                      $187,136

Working

Social security taxes payable = 6% * 230,400 = $13,824

Medicare taxes payable = 1.5% * 256,000 = $3,840

Salaries payable = 256,000 - 13,824 - 3,840 - 51,200 = $187,136

b.

                     Medicare taxes payable                                                  $3,840

                     State unemployment taxes payable                               $1,728

                      Federal unemployment taxes payable                          $  256

Working

FICA = Social security          

State unemployment taxes payable = 5.4% * 32,000 = $1,728

Federal unemployment taxes payable = 0.8% * 32,000 = $256

Payroll tax expense = 13,824 + 3,840 + 1,728 + 256 = $19,648
