The formula for the calculation of bonus is simple: Applicable Bonus = Your Salary x 8.33/100. Applicable Bonus = 7,000 x 8.33/100. Bonus Amount Eligible = 15,000 x 8.33/100. Source:
The percentage method This method uses a flat rate system. When using the percentage method, employers withhold 22% for taxes on the first $1M and an additional 37% on any portion of the bonus over $1M. For example, let's say John receives a $3,500 bonus. His employer will withhold 22% of this bonus for federal taxes.
How to Calculate Bonuses for Employees. To calculate a bonus based on your employee's salary, just multiply the employee's salary by your bonus percentage. For example, a monthly salary of $3,000 with a 10% bonus would be $300.
An annual bonus is usually based on overall company performance. This means you may get a large or small bonus (or no bonus at all) depending on how successful your organization or specific department was that year, as well as how big a part of that success you were. This can also be considered “profit sharing.”

Suppose that your target bonus is 20 percent of a base salary of $100,000 and you performed at the maximum performance level. That means you would earn 200 percent of that 20 percent bonus, or 40 percent. This would result in a $40,000 check ($100,000 x 20%(your target bonus) X 200% (payout level)).
The federal bonus tax withholding rate is typically 22%. However, employers could instead combine a bonus with your regular wages as though it's one of your usual paychecks—with your usual tax amount withheld. There are ways to reduce the tax impact of your bonus.
