To find the employee's gross pay, we need to take into account all the deductions made from their salary and add these to their net pay. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the calculation:
1. Net Pay:
- This is the amount the employee takes home after all deductions. According to the statement, the net pay is [tex]$667.17.
2. Deductions:
- Federal Withholding (FED WITH): $[/tex]98.00
- Social Security Withholding (SOC WITH): [tex]$52.88
- Medicare (MED CARE): $[/tex]12.37
- State Withholding (STATE WITH): [tex]$22.54
3. Calculate Gross Pay:
- The gross pay is the sum of the net pay and all the deductions.
- \[
\text{Gross Pay} = \text{Net Pay} + \text{Federal Withholding} + \text{Social Security Withholding} + \text{Medicare} + \text{State Withholding}
\]
- Substituting the given values:
- \[
\text{Gross Pay} = 667.17 + 98.00 + 52.88 + 12.37 + 22.54
\]
4. Addition:
- Adding these values together:
- \(667.17 + 98.00 = 765.17\)
- \(765.17 + 52.88 = 818.05\)
- \(818.05 + 12.37 = 830.42\)
- \(830.42 + 22.54 = 852.96\)
So, the employee's gross pay is \$[/tex]852.96.
The correct answer from the choices provided is:
d. [tex]$\$[/tex]852.96$
