social security tax that is 6.2% of her gross pay

medicare tax that is 1.45% of her gross pay

state tax that is 21% of her federal tax

determine how marilyn’s net pay will be affected if she increases her federal withholding allowances from 3 to 4.

net pay will be increased by $18.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross pay of Marilyn = $810

She claims 3 federal withholding allowances = $37 (as per given table)

Her state tax is 21% of her federal tax = 21% × 37

                                                              = 0.21 × 37

                                                             = $7.77

Total amount on 3 withholding allowances claimed  = 37 + 7.77 = $44.77

Now she increases her federal withholding allowances from 3 to 4.

Her new claim withholding allowances = $22 (as per given table)

and her state tax of 21% of her federal tax = 21% × 22

                                                                     = 0.21 × 22

                                                                     = $4.62

New withholding amount on the number 4 federal withholding allowances

= 22 + 4.62 = $26.62

The difference in her net pay would be = 44.77 - 26.62 = $18.15

Her withholding decreased from $44.77 to $26.62 so her net pay will be increased by $18.15
