Answer 1

Answer:

Monthly housing allowance will be $609.65

Step-by-step explanation:

You work a part-time job earning 6.80/hr with tips that average 2.30/hr you work 20 hr/wk.

$6.80\times20=136$

$2.30\times20=46$

Total earnings for the week is = $136+46=182$ dollars

Now, deductions are as follows:

Fica 7.65% : $0.0765\times182=13.923$

Federal tax withholding 8.95% : $0.0895\times182=16.289$

State tax withholding 6.1% : $0.061\times182=11.102$

Total deductions = $13.923+16.289+11.102=41.314$

So, total take home pay = $182-41.314=140.686$ ≈ $140.69

The weekly net income allowed for hosing  is $140.69.

So, monthly housing allowance will be :

$140.69\times4$ = $562.76

Answer 2

143.7  I believe since you take 6.80*20=136+46=2.3*20

136+46=182

182*7.65%=168.08

168.08*8.95%=153.04

153.04*6.1%=143.7
