Calculate Payroll An employee earns $44 per hour and 1.5 times that rate for all hours in excess of 40 hours per week. Assume th
Marrrta [24]

Answer: $1750

Explanation:

Given Data

Earnings = $44/ hr

Overtime Earnings = 1.5 times Of $44

= $66

Hours worked during the week = 55 hrs

Social security tax rate = 6.0%

Medicare tax rate = 1.5%

Federal income tax = $633

Therefore:

Gross pay = Normal pay + overtime pay

Normal pay

= $44 * 40 hrs

= $1760

Overtime pay

= $66 * 15 hrs

= $990

Gross pay = $1760 + $990

= $1750

Social security tax

= 0.06 * $2750

= $165

Medicare tax

= 0.015 * $2750

= $41.25

Total tax

= $633 + $41.25 + $165

= $839.25

Net pay

= $2750 - $839.25

= $1910.75
