The Medicare tax is same for all three checks: Multiply the gross salary by 1.45%, which is $98.60.

For the 9th check, for Social Security, multiply the gross salary by 6.2%, which is $421.60.

On the 14th check, the employee exceeds the $90K limit by $5,200, so, for the 14th check, you multiply $1,600 by 6.2%, which is $99.20.

On the 24th check, only Medicare is withheld.
