, the average value of the participants’ stock compensation was $72,245 and approximately two-thirds of the participants were fully vested.
As it is ordinary income, restricted stock is treated for tax withholding similarly to bonus withholding. Corporations are required to use statutory withholding rates for both federal and state purposes. For employees whose cumulative compensation is less than $1 million, the employer is only required to withhold for federal purposes at a 22% rate. This can create a challenge for employees who are in a higher tax bracket.
The tax planning for restricted stock should be as straightforward as these awards themselves. While it is always prudent to engage a tax professional, employees can do a simple analysis by taking their gross award and multiplying it by their tax rate.
