The IRS requires that a portion of our pay/wages (withholding) be taken out every pay period and forwarded to the IRS by our employer. This amount is an approximation of what our final tax obligation will be when we file our tax returns. The government wants these payments to be made during the year so we don't end up owing the IRS thousands of dollars at tax time and potentially not paying it. They get an approximation of our tax liability that way and it accumulates all during the year. When we file our tax returns the bonus amount is just added to our wages, etc. and we compute our final tax obligation for the year. Some may have to pay more and some will get a refund depending on how much they had withheld during the year. In any event, the bottom line is that the actual TAX on the bonus is the same rate as the marginal rate on our wages, etc. No special TAX rate just because it's a bonus payment.

Whew, I need a drink now! :smile:

Very good - but now we know that you don't work for YRC - you work for H&R BLOCK!! You forgot to explain how the W4 form tells your employer at which rate to withhold taxes... :)

How was the drink?

This anger really isn't healthy - WOW - your days are just melting away and you are just being angry...

We (those that function in logic & reality) are not begging you to change your mind... we are just really slow on learning that you can't be educated.. see we keep thinking that we will be able to say something that makes all the light bulbs come on in your head...

:) Don't worry.... Be Happy.... After reading that article that was posted around here somewhere... I'm thinking we're all out of a job in the next 9 months anyway.... couple the bad attitudes with the poor me mentality and the one longshot we have for saving the sinking ship is GONE.. GONE ... GONE... :)

Remember - the only way we all ~ yes and no voters alike, Rank-and-File and Management alike ~ make it out of this is if we spend some time WORKING on it... two heads are better than one.. and we have 30,000 heads so we should be able to do something... perhaps put toothpaste on a toothbrush... that's an easy task.... we can all get that one done right? Start small aim high!! :)

We don't need Longblade's permission to be here. As far as 'troll' goes, that would be anybody who doesn't toe the line for his agenda, which happens to be closing down his ex-employer.

Fixed that for you.
 
The labor cost to revenue was a point I tried to make on another thread somewhere some time ago. 57% in 2008, 57.37% in 2012. Those $3B in givebacks didn't make the difference folks expected to see because they were actually spending more on labor post giveback to create $1 revenue than before.

If the company would have received the same 2012 revenue for 15% less labor, the labor cost would have been 48.76% of the revenue---still higher than your non-Union competition. If YRCW wants to compete long term and not require additional givebacks you are going to have to be more efficeint at everything you do.

Some here are not as tolerant of humor as others. But in all seriousness if you are a standard member you see ads. The rate Jeff charges is dependent on page hits. Obviously he's not getting rich but it does help. Whether your a visitor, a standard member or a premium member it's all about numbers.

I've been thinking about becoming a premium member. We'll see. Meanwhile, it probably helps if everybody clicks on a few ads each day. I do.
