Orville staples is a painter who earns 30,000 a year. he is single and claims 3 allowances
babunello [35]

Using the information in the table given, the Gross pay, deductions and net pay for Orville staples are :

  • $30,000
  • $2340
  • $1860
  • $600
  • $450
  • $34.50
  • $15.00
  • $24700.50

Given the tax time table :

  • Social security tax = 6.2% of $97,500
  • Medicare = 1.45% of gross income
  • State tax = 2% of gross pay
  • Local tax = 1.5% of gross pay
  • Gross pay = $30,000

1.) Gross pay, total amount earned prior to tax = $30,000

2.) <u>Using the weekly payroll for singles</u> :

Number of weeks in a year = 52

Weekly earning = 30000/52 = 600

The Federal income tax = $25 per week  (3 allowances claimed)

Total FIT = $45 × 52 = $2340

3.) <u>Social security tax</u> :

SS tax = 6.2% × $30,000 = $1860

4.) <u>State tax</u> :

2% of gross pay

2% × $30,000 = $600

5.) <u>Local tax</u> :

1.5% × 30,000 = $450

6.) <u>Medical dues</u>  = $34.50

7.) <u>Others</u> : = $15.00

8.) <u>Net pay = Gross pay - Total deduction</u>

Net pay = 30000 - $(2340+1860+600+450+34.50+15)

Net pay = 30,000 - 5299.50 = $24700.50
