Answer:

Blake’s employer withholds from his biweekly paycheck for state income tax is $76.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A pharmacy technician, earns an annual gross pay of $41,300.

He is married with two dependents, and his exemptions total $8,000.

To Find: How much Blake’s employer withholds from his biweekly paycheck for state income tax.

Solution :

Since his annual gross pay is $41300.

His exemptions = $8000

After the deduction of exemptions . His gross pay = $41300-$8000=$33300

His annual gross pay is $33300 more than $10,000

so, his tax rate will be 6%

So, annual tax will be 6% of 33300

So, Annual tax = $1998

To find his biweekly paycheck

1 year = 52 weeks

Biweekly = 52/2 = 26

⇒[tex]\frac{1998}{26}[/tex]

⇒[tex]76.84[/tex]

Thus , Blake’s employer withholds from his biweekly paycheck for state income tax is $76.84
