Taxes are paid by employers, and those taxes reduce the amounts that employees are paid. Obviously, that isn't shown on pay stubs. But are you really so stupid as to say that the taxes employers must pay don't affect the wages they pay employees? Really???

 

Employers pay an average of 1 dollar in taxes for every five dollars they pay employees. An employee paid $20 an hour is actually earning $24, but $4 of that money is going to federal and state governments.

 

Of course, I've explained this all to you before, but you prefer to play stupid in order to stoke a pointless argument and prove some sort of idiotic "point."

Yep, water coolers provided by employers affect employee wages too.

So all operating expenses swirl down to the end result of how much you can pay employees, huh?  Is that what you are telling us here?  You do realize that is not how a company does an annual budget, right?

When on earth did I say that? Let me phrase it much more simplistically for you...every benefit/amenity provided to employees is ultimately paid for by those employees--not their employers.

 

Thus: though employers write the checks for unemployment insurance, it is employees who actually pay for it.

 

As far as budgeting is concerned, companies consider the total cost of employees--wages and benefits and associated costs. The TOTAL determines the PORTION of that which can be paid as wages. Thus, the greater the cost of the benefits and taxes, the less amount can be paid out of that total budgeted amount as wages. Benefits therefore reduce wages.

Companies pay unemployment insurance and other operating expenses out of their net revenue/cash flow.  The employees don't pay it.  That is absurd!  

 

Please stick to the easier occupation of teaching third grader and leave the running of businesses up to the big boys.  Good God!
