Answer:

Gross pay:

  • consultant $2,310
  • computer programmer $2,100
  • administrator $2,760

Net pay:

  • consultant $1,694.73
  • computer programmer $1,539.68
  • administrator $1,945.78

Explanation:

                                           regular earnings     overtime    withholding  

                                                                                               allowances

Consultant                          $2,310 per week       N/A                3

Computer programmer          $30 per hour        1.5                  2

Administrator                          $46 per hour          2                   1

computer programmer worked 60 hours = ($30 x 40) + ($30 x 20 x 1.5) = $2,100

administrator worked 50 hours = ($46 x 40) + ($46 x 10 x 2) = $2,760

Social security taxes:

  • Consultant = 6% x $2,310 = $138.60                        
  • Computer programmer = 6% x $2,100 = $126        
  • Administrator = 6% x $2,760 = $165.60

Medicare taxes:

  • Consultant = 1.5% x $2,310 = $34.65                        
  • Computer programmer = 1.5% x $2,100 = $31.5        
  • Administrator = 1.5% x $2,760 = $41.40

Federal income taxes:

  • Consultant: amount subject to withholding = $2,310 - (3 x $70) = $2,100. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($2,100 - $1,796) = $442.02                        
  • Computer programmer = amount subject to withholding = $2,100 - (2 x $70) = $1,960. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($1,960 - $1,796) = $402.82            
  • Administrator = amount subject to withholding = $2,760 - $70 = $2,690. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($2,690 - $1,796) = $607.22  

Gross pay:

  • consultant $2,310
  • computer programmer $2,100
  • administrator $2,760

Net pay:

  • consultant $2,310 - ($138.60 + $34.65 + $442.02) = $1,694.73
  • computer programmer $2,100 - ($126 + $31.50 + $402.82) = $1,539.68
  • administrator $2,760 - ($165.60 + $41.40 + $607.22) = $1,945.78
