John earns $24,008 per year and claims 3 exemptions. his local tax rate is 5.5%. the amount for each exemption is $800. how much local income tax should be withheld from his monthly earnings? (round your answer to the nearest cent.)

The correct answer is $99,04

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We must first deduct the total amount of exemptions John claims per year from his annual income.

$24008 - ($800 * 3)= $21608

The 5.5% tax must be applied to the amount of $21608.

Step 2: We now calculate the tax on the amount of $21608 and divide it by 12 months to get the monthly amount that must be deducted from your taxable earnings.

$21608 * = $1188,44

= $99,04

The amount to be deducted per month in taxes is $99.04.

Have a nice day!
