Allowance
The allowance is based on the number of exemptions in the Exemptions field. It is determined by multiplying the number of exemptions by $1,000.
How Vantagepoint Calculates Tax
To calculate an employee's Oklahoma State tax, Vantagepoint does the following:
- Multiplies the employee's gross pay per pay period by the number of pay periods in a year to determine annualized gross wages.
- Subtracts the employee's allowance and any 401(k) and 125/Cafeteria plan contributions from the employee's annualized gross wages to determine taxable income.
- Calculates the computed tax by applying Tax Calculation Method 1 to the taxable income.
- Divides the net 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.
