Answer: $1,110.11‬

Explanation:

The Employer is to pay and withhold all taxes except the income tax withheld so the employer's payroll tax expense will be;

= Social Security Tax + Medicare tax + FUTA + SUTA

= ( 0.062 * 8,838) + ( 0.0145 * 8,838) + ( 0.008 * 7,000) + ( 0.054 * 7,000)

= 547.96 + 128.15 + 56 + 378

= $1,110.11‬

SUTA and FUTA are payable on first $7,000 of an employee's pay.
