Answer:
The correct answer for option (a) is $3,080 and for option (b) is $2,141.
Explanation:
(a). Current pay = $44
After 40 hours, Pay = $44 × 1.5 = $66
So, we can calculate the gross pay by using following formula:
Gross pay = (40 hours × $44 ) + (20 hours × $66)
= $1,760 + $1,320
= $3,080
(b).
Security Tax = Gross pay × 6% = $3,080 × 6% = $184.8
Medicare Tax = Gross pay × 1.5% = $3,080 × 1.5% = $46.2
Federal Income Tax = $708
So, we can calculate the net pay by using following formula:
Net Pay = $3,080 - $184.8 - $46.2 - $708
= $2,141

Explanation:
The computation of amount of net pay for the employee for the month of January is shown below:-
Deductions = (Gross earning × Social security tax rate) + (Gross earning × Medicare tax rate) + Federal income taxes + Health insurance + Contribution of retirement plan
= ($5,550 × 6.2%) + ($5,550 × 1.45%) + $184 + $152 + $76
= $344.1 + $80.475 + $184 + $152 + $76
= $836.575
Net pay = Gross earning - Deductions
= $5,550 - $836.575
= $4,713.425
Therefore for computing the net pay we simply applied the above formula.
