? · Accepted Answer

Regular pay 40 hours @ $12.50 per hour = $500.00
Overtime pay 8 hours @ $18.75 per hour = $150.00
Total earnings before any deduction >>> = $650.00 << Gross pay

Less income tax withholding__ $650 @.10 = $65.00
Less social security tax (FICA) $650 @.062 = $40.30
Less Medicare tax >>>>>>>>> $650 @ .0145 = $9.43
Less health insurance premiums >>>>>>>> = $25.00
Total deductions >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> $139.73 <<Total deductions

Bonita's net pay >>>> $510.27 <<< Take home pay

40 X 12.50 + 8 X 18.75 = 600

600 X .8235 = 494.10

494.10 - 25.00 = 469.10
