Since the SUTA rates changes are made at the end of each year and there is much discussion about changes to the FUTA rate, the available 2017 rates were used for FUTA and SUTA.

Note: For this textbook edition the rate 0.6% was used for the FUTA tax rate for employers.

Example 5-4

Total taxable earnings $49,290.00
Net rate of tax (6.0% − 5.4%) × 0.6%
Amount of net FUTA tax $295.74
