user100 [1]

James should earn a <em>weekly</em> salary of $ 432.76 with 0 exemptions to give the closest exemption.

<h3>How to estimate the salary without exemption</h3>

In this question, we should estimate the salary <em>earned</em> before one exemption and find the <em>equivalent brute</em> salary with no exemptions. The expected salary is equal to product the <em>brute</em> salary minus the product of the <em>tax</em> rate and <em>brute</em> salary.

According to the table we have the expected salary after one exemption:

$x = 418\cdot \left(1-\frac{19.66}{100} \right)$

$x = 335.82$

After a quick inspection to the <em>salary</em> column for zero exemptions, we find that percentage associated to a salary with no exemptions: ( $r = 22.40\,\%$ )
