Talk:Taxable wages

illogical example

As you can see in this example, Joe Smith earns 8500. Since this is higher than the limit of FUTA for taxable wages, which is 7000, the FUTA tax calculated for Joe cannot be calculated against any more than the limit of 7000.

Is this trying to imply that the "extra" 1500 will be taxed according to normal income tax? In any case, it would be better to explain taxable wages using a "normal" example of a normally employed person. --Espoo 14:36, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Multiple problems

This article has multiple problems: factual inaccuracy, imprecision, stub, no context, poorly written. It seems to be a candidate for deletion.

The term "taxable wages" is used in FICA, Medicare tax, FUTA, SUTA, certain state taxes. I have encountered the term outside the U.S., but can't recall where. As another note points out, the example has problems.Oldtaxguy (talk) 04:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

== WP Tax Class == The article needs an expansion, better explanation, and to be globalized.-- EECavazos (talk) 19:40, 16 November 2007 (UTC) == WP Tax Priority == Mid priority because the article's topic is a worldwide concept, but the article doesn't state its impact or notability.-- EECavazos (talk) 19:41, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
