EXAMPLE: Assume the report is 15 days past the due date for the 1st quarter of 2000 (04/30/00).
The contributions (tax due) = $350.00 and a underpayment of $2.50 is on the account. This brings the total due to $352.50
The interest calculation at 1% per month is 0.50% times the $352.50 tax due totaling $1.74.
The penalty calculation at 5% per month is of contributions due + interest due , totals $17.71
The total payment equals $352.50 + 1.74 + 17.71 = $371.95
