Form 940 Worksheet

The Form 940 Worksheet displays data that you need to fill out the Internal Revenue Service Form 940, Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax Return.

You must file Form 940 with the IRS annually with your payment of federal unemployment tax. Many firms pay FUTA tax quarterly, so the worksheet also calculates the quarterly amount.

FUTA Contribution

Vision calculates your firm's FUTA contribution by applying the current FUTA percentage to each employee’s gross wages, subject to the annual wage base. You specify both the FUTA percentage and the annual wage base on the General tab in the Options dialog box.
