Solution and Explanation:

1) Patrick patrone

Single and 2 allowances $=\ 925-\ 155.80-\ 155.80=\ 613.40$

It falls under the category of Over $509 but under $1,631

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $36.70 + 12% of excess over $509

$\ 36.70+12 \%(\ 613.40-\ 509)=\ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \ 104.40=\ 36.70+\ 12.53=\ 49.23$

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $49.23.

2) Carson Leno, married and 4 allowances

= $1,195 - $155.80 - $155.80 - $155.80 - $155.80 = $571.80

The wages falls under the category of Over $444 but under $1,177.

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $0 + 10% of excess over $444.

$\ 0+10 \%(\ 571.80-\ 444)=\ 0+10 \% \text { of } \ 127.20=\ 0+\ 12.72=\ 12.72$

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $12.72

3) Carli lintz single, zero allowances and wages is $700.

$700 - $0 = $700 (zero allowance)

The wages falls under the category of Over $509 but under $1631.

The amount of income tax to withhold is $36.70 + 12% of excess over $509

$\ 36.70+12 \%(\ 700-\ 509)=\ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \ 191 .=\ 36.70+\ 22.92=\ 59.62$

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $59.62.

4) Gene hartz. Single, 1 allowance and $2,500 wages.

$2,500 - $155.80 = $2,348.20

The wages fall under the category of Over $1,631 but under $3,315

The amount of income tax to withhold is $171.34 + 22 % of excess of $1,631 $\begin{aligned}&\ 171.34+22 \%(\ 2348.20-\ 1631)=\ 171.34+22 \% \text { of } \ 717.20 .=\ 174.34+\ 157.78=\\&\ 332.12\end{aligned}$The amount for Federal income tax is $332.12

5) Mollie Parmer. Married, 2 allowances and wages is $3,600

$\ 3,600-\ 155.80-\ 155.80=\ 3,288.40$

The wages falls under the category of Over $1,177 but under $3,421

The amount of income tax to withhold is $\ 73.30+12 \% of excess over \ 1,177$ $\begin{aligned}&\ 73.30+12 \% \text { of }(\ 3,288.40-\ 1,177) .=\ 73.30+12 \% \text { of } \ 2,111.40 .=\ 73.30+\ 253.37=\\&\ 326.67\end{aligned}$The amount for Federal income tax is $326.67.
