Question
Justin Matthews is a waiter at the Duluxe Lounge. In his first weekly pay in March, he earned $300.00 for the 40 hours he worked. In addition, he reports his tips for February to his employer ($500.00), and the employer withholds the appropriate
taxes for the tips from this first pay in March.
Calculate his net take-home pay assuming the employer withheld federal income tax (wage-bracket, single or married filing separately), social security taxes, and state income tax (1%).
Enter deductions beginning with a minus sign (-). Round interim amounts to two decimal places. Use these values in subsequent computations then round final answer to two decimal places.
As we go to press, the federal income tax rates for 2023 are being determined by budget talks in Washington, and are not available for publication. For this edition, the 2022 federal income tax tables for Manual Systems
with Forms W-4 From 2020 or Later with Standard Withholding and 2022 FICA rates have been used.
