Both the federal Medicare tax and federal social security taxes are calculated based gross pay.

The medicare tax will be

=1.45% of $25,000

= 1.45/100 x $25,000

=0.0145 x $25,000

=$362.5

Social security tax will be

=6.2/100 x $25,000

=0.062  x $25,000

=$1,550.00

Total taxes = $1550.00 + $362.50
