Employers are required to withhold the additional Medicare Tax at a 0.9 percent rate on wages and other compensation it pays to an employee in excess of $200,000 in a calendar year. There is no employer match for the additional Medicare Tax.
State taxes are determined in much the same way. Every individual state's tax board provides a calculating formula for tax withheld. To calculate the payroll tax, the employer must know the current tax rates. The Social Security tax rate for employees in 2016 is 6.2%, and the Medicare tax rate is 1.45%. The employer must contribute 6.2% for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare.
