Case contract

Input [ytd_wages, wages] in cents. Regular Medicare is 1.45% of wages rounded half-up. Additional Medicare is 0.9% of the part of this paycheck that pushes year-to-date wages above 200,000.00, rounded half-up separately. Return [medicare, additional_wages, medicare + additional].

Why this case matters

The employer must begin the extra 0.9% exactly with the paycheck that crosses the threshold, and only on the excess portion.
