Answer #1
Calculate self-employment tax on earnings
Self-employment tax is calculated on 92.35% of earnings
Self-employment tax earnings 115000*92.35%
Self-employment tax earnings $106,202.50
Self-employment tax rate is 15.3% for 2019
Self-employment tax 106202.50*15.3%
Self-employment tax $16,248.98
Thus, Maria's self employment tax is $16,248.98
