FICA taxes)

Note that FICA taxes includes :

Social Security tax = 6.2%

Medicare tax on earnings=1.45%

Let plug in the formula

Gross amount=$500/(1-22%-6.2%-1.45%)

Gross amount=$500/(1-14.35%)

Gross amount=$500/0.1335

Gross amount= $3,745.32

Therefore the gross amount of each bonus check would be $3,745.32
