Answer :
gross earnings - deductions = net pay
gross earnings = 3000
deductions :
FICA : 7.65% of 3000 = 0.0765(3000) = 229.50
fed. inc. tax : 476
st. in. tax: 2% of 3000 = 0.02(3000) = 60
voluntary deductions : 8
total deductions : 229.50 + 476 + 60 + 8 = 773.50
gross earnings - deductions = net pay
3000 - 773.50 = net pay
2226.50 = net pay <===
