The total taxable wages which need to be added to the employee will be:
**Please keep in mind this would added to the employees taxable wages and reported on the W2 as taxable income; however, it is *not* physically paid to the employee as they received the benefit of driving the vehicle for personal use as the benefit. You would want to ensure this is an In/Out earnings for your organization where you insert it for taxable wages, then remove it at the end after taxes have been calculated so you don't physically pay the employee the amount as wages. You can think of it similar to cash tips which were already paid, but need to be taxed.**
This Commuting Rule Estimator should be used to enter the number of trips the employee to from home to the office with the company vehicle to determine how much will need to be included in the employees wages for tax purposes.
