Answer:

Gross pay 1,520

net pay      1,305.72

Explanation:

40 x 30 weekly normal rate = 1,200

 8 x 40        overtime            =   320

Gross pay                                 1,520

deductions:

federal income          $   98.00

FICA 7.65 of 1,520 =  $  116.28

total deduction                      (214.28)  

net pay                                 1,305.72‬

For the gross pay, we will multiply the 40 weekly hours by the normal rate

and the excess hours by the overtime rate.

Then, for deductions, we will multiply the gross pay by the FICA rate.
