Question

Harvey Diaz earns $1250 every paycheck. His federal income tax is $46. His state tax is $21. His FICA is 7.65% of his gross salary. He contributes 3% of his gross earnings to a 401K. He also pays $150 for health insurance out of each paycheck. What are his post-tax deductions?

Answer 1

Answer: His post-tax deductions are the $150 for health insurance.

In the list of deductions that is given, only the health insurance is deducted post tax. 

The income tax, state tax and FICA are all types of taxes themselves. The 401K deductions are generally on a pre-tax basis. That leaves the health insurance being deducted post tax.
