Gross-Up Example for a $5,000 Bonus If the employer wants to award a **net bonus** of $5,000 and the combined tax rate is **30%**, here's how to calculate the grossed-up amount: Gross-up Factor Calculation: Gross-up Factor = 1 / (1 - Tax Rate) Gross-up Factor = 1 / (1 - 0.30) Gross-up Factor = 1 / 0.70 Gross-up Factor ≈ 1.4286;Gross Bonus Calculation: Gross Bonus = Net Bonus × Gross-up Factor Gross Bonus = $5,000 × 1.4286 Gross Bonus = $7,143;Verification: Gross Bonus: $7,143 Taxes Withheld: $7,143 × 30% = $2,143 Net Bonus: $7,143 - $2,143 = $5,000; Final Grossed-Up Amount: $7,143 The employer should pay a **grossed-up bonus of $7,143** to ensure that the employee receives a **net bonus of $5,000** after taxes are deducted.
