Answer :

To determine the net (take-home) pay for an individual with a gross income of [tex]$60,000 and specific expenses, follow these steps: 1. List all the given expenses: - FICA: $[/tex]4,690
- State Income Tax: [tex]$1,860 - Federal Income Tax: $[/tex]6,300
- Medical Insurance: [tex]$1,000 2. Calculate the total expenses by adding up all the individual expenses: \[ \text{Total Expenses} = \$[/tex]4,690 + \[tex]$1,860 + \$[/tex]6,300 + \[tex]$1,000 \] 3. Sum the amounts to find the total expenses: \[ \text{Total Expenses} = \$[/tex]4,690 + \[tex]$1,860 + \$[/tex]6,300 + \[tex]$1,000 = \$[/tex]13,850
\]

4. Subtract the total expenses from the gross income to find the net (take-home) pay:
[tex]\[ \text{Net Pay} = \$60,000 - \$13,850 \][/tex]

5. Perform the subtraction:
[tex]\[ \text{Net Pay} = \$60,000 - \$13,850 = \$46,150 \][/tex]

Therefore, the net (take-home) pay for the individual, rounded to the nearest whole dollar, is \$46,150.
