How Vantagepoint Calculates Tax

To calculate an employee's Colorado State tax, Vantagepoint does the following:

  1. Multiplies the employee's gross pay per pay period by the number of pay periods in a year to determine annualized gross wages.
  2. Subtracts the employee's allowance and annualized 401(k) and 125/Cafeteria plan contributions from the employee's annualized gross wages.
  3. Calculates the annual income tax using Tax Calculation Method 1.
  4. Divides the annual income tax by the number of pay periods in a year to determine the amount to be withheld for the pay period. Vantagepoint then rounds the withheld amount to the nearest dollar.
