Computation of Withholding Tax on Compensation and Year-End Adjustment

In relation to my previous blogs about the computations of SS & EC Contributions, Philhealth Contributions and Pag-IBIG Contributions, let us apply it in the Computation of Withholding Tax on Compensation and Year-End Adjustment:

ILLUSTRATIONS:

Assuming that Employee A (Husband) is married to Employee B (Wife) with a Monthly Basic Salary (Net of Absences, Late) amounting to Php.18,000.00, with two (2) Qualified Dependent Child (QDC).

Employee A opt to contribute Monthly Pag-IBIG Contribution of P900.00.

The Monthly Withholding Tax on Compensation is computed as follows:

Step 1. Determine the Gross Taxable Compensation Income (Net of SSS, PHIC & Pag-IBIG)

Step 2. Determine the Mandatory Employee (EE) SSS, PHILHEALTH, Pag-IBIG Contribution and UNION Dues (if applicable).

Employee (EE) SSS Contribution (Monthly) – P581.30
Employee (EE) Philhealth Contribution (Monthly) – P225.00
Employee (EE) Pag-IBIG Contribution Monthly) – P100.00

Step 3. Determine the Exemption Status and Number of Qualified dependents of the taxpayer (if any).

Personal Exemptions: P50,000 regardless of status.
Additional Exemption: P25,000 for every qualified dependent child but not to exceed four (4) dependents

Step 4. Computation of Withholding Tax using the Revised Withholding Tax Tables Effective January 1, 2009.
