Actually, if they mean "payroll expenses" instead of "salaries and wages",
then this $78K includes health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance
to buy glasses with, prescription drug insurance, worker's compensation
(another insurance mandated by the government), unemployment insurance (that
pays people after you fire them), social security insurance (a tax that pays
what's essentially pensions for retired people without pensions that isn't
in any sense insurance), potentially life insurance and whatever
pension/retirement stuff the company wants to pay, along with the
administrative overhead for such (like the cost of dealing with the
insurance companies, the retirement fund companies, etc).
The taxes are going to add up to at least 10% or 15% of that number, even if
you provide the minimum you're allowed to provide. And if I was going to run
a company with only 30 employees, I'd certainly have the company provide for
us an excellent insurance and retirement package.
